Charlie: Let me handle this Frank, he’s making a few good points.  I know a lot about the law and various other lawyerings, I’m well educated, well versed.  I know that situations, real estate wise, like this are very complex.
Lawyer: Actually, they’re pretty simple. The forms are all standard, boilerplate.
Charlie: Ok, well, we’re all hungry, we’re going to get to our hotplates soon enough alright.  Let’s talk about the contract here.
Lawyer: I’m sorry, where did you go to law school again?
Charlie: Uh, I could ask you that very same question.
Lawyer: I went to Harvard, how about you?
Charlie: I’m pleading the fifth, sir.
Lawyer: I’d advise that you do that.
Charlie: And I’ll take that advice under cooperation, alright.  Now what’s say you and I go toe-to-toe on bird law and see who comes out the victor.
Lawyer: You know, I don’t think I’m going to do anything close to that and I can see clearly you know nothing about the law .  It seems like you have a tenuous grasp on the English language in general.
Charlie: Ok, well, filibuster.
Lawyer: Do you know what that word means?
Charlie: Yup.
Lawyer: Yeah, what’s that?
Charlie: Ahhh!

It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Episode 5x01, “The Gang Exploits the Mortgage Crisis”

I know I’ve said it before, but it merits repeating: Charlie Kelly is one of the greatest TV characters ever. His illiteracy, love of the law, and musical/horse whispering abilities are comedy gold.
