Simple premise. Replace one word in a famous movie quote with the word “underpants.” Each instance of that word must be converted. You can make changes to verb tense to maintain grammatical correctness if necessary. > [@](#): > > Son, we live in a world that has underpants, and those underpants have to be guarded by men with guns. Who’s gonna do it? **You?** You, Lieutenant Weinburg? I have more responsibility here than you could possibly fathom. You weep for Santiago, and you curse the Marines. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know. That Santiago’s death, while tragic, probably saved lives. And that my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives. I know deep down in places you don’t talk about at parties, you **want** me on those underpants, you **need** me on those underpants. ---
