Party Quote by Jamie McGuire
““No. Listen. I get off at nine. I'm gonna pick you up at ten. If you aren't dressed and ready, and I mean showered and shaved ready, I'm going to call a bunch of people and tell them you're having a party at your house with six free kegs and hookers". "Damn it Trenton, don't." "You know I will. Last warning. Ten o'clock, or by eleven you'll have guests. Ugly ones".””
