What does is mean when your ex quotes High Fidelity to insult you? I'm conflicted because I really like that movie so in a way I'm like "aw shucks you shouldn't have" but on the other hand I'm like "but I'm awesome!!!"  This was the chosen quote:

"Can you see your name on that list? Maybe you'd sneak into the top ten. But there's just no room for you in the top five, SORRY. Those places are reserved for the kind of heartbreak and humiliation you're just not capable of delivering..."

OOOOOH! I imagine a crowd of people surrounding a boxing ring of some sort covering their mouths in playful defensiveness. What I find so ironic is that it wasn't me who caused the humiliation and heartbreak. He for sure holds a spot in the top five of my personal desert island breakups. Ha, and he always moped about how he was never good at anything.


So I think it's clear that I'm not too broken up about being insulted via John Cusack. Actually, if I HAD to be insulted it would be ONLY via John Cusack. In High Fidelity he always had something clever to say and it makes me wonder if his lines weren't hand sculpted by a woman. Guys don't tend to have the gift of witty comebacks and slicing insults, we were given that gift in spades.

In summation, don't start something with a quote. You won't know how to carry it off and you'll certainly be buried in a never ending hail storm of demeaning and insightful defamations so powerful that you'll pass them down as lore to your children and your childrens children as a warning against trying to outwit a girl.

Okay, that might be a bit dramatic.
