"Defecting from Russia, a likely story, I bet you're another bloody Romanian asylum seeker"

Or

"Yeah yeah a U2, and I suppose that lump in your suit is your Bono"

Or

"I might of blown a hole in my ship when I stirred the oxygen tanks, survived a nightmare trip around the moon, navigated home by dead reckoning, survived re entry when we thought we might all die, but get off me I'm not getting in that bloody flying contraption."
