Best cursing overdub ever broadcast on TV

I was watching There's Something About Mary on FOX, and there's a scene where Ben Stiller punches Matt Dillon in a dog-poo filled apartment, then...according to the FOX network...calls him a
"FROGGING ASHPOLE."

I am going to call people this as much as possible this week.
 
I've always been a fan of "I've had it with these monkey fightin' snakes on this Monday to Friday plane!"
 
If they have to dub over curse words for broadcast television, they shouldn't be playing the film on broadcast television in the first place.
 
I hate dubbing.

I started watching "The Big C" recently at 8pm. Holy shit. I found out that they reran the show over 40 minutes instead of 30 minutes around 12am, and there are f-bombs thrown left and right! Made it so much better a show.
 
"Fust you, Vincent."
Collateral (yes, it was even captioned this way)

"This is what happens when you find a stranger in the Alps, Larry."
The Big Lebowski

"Yippie Ki Yi Yay, Mr. Falcon."
Die Hard II(?)

"I have had it with these monkey fighting snakes on this Monday-to-Friday plane!"
Snakes on a Plane

"No. I am not messing with you."
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines

All on Turner networks and FX.

You know what word I heard them censor on the radio the other day?

"drunk"

from Young Wild and Free.
 
I wonder if this speech gets censored:

"I would like to direct this to the distinguished members of the panel: You lousy cork-soakers. You have violated my farging rights. Dis somanumbatching country was founded so that the liberties of common patriotic citizens like me could not be taken away by a bunch of fargin iceholes... like yourselves. "

Also, there's a lot of misinformation in this thread. TNT/FX are cable networks, not "broadcast networks." They actually aren't required by the FCC to censor these movies. They have their own "Standards and Practices" department responsible for their content policies.
 
Total Recall when Arnold drills through the operator's door and Benny yells "where the f*ck are you!!!".

Quaid's "Screw you!!!" got dubbed as "Die Benny Die!!!".
 
"Everything was fine til Wally Wick here cut the power to the protection grid!"

"Is this true?"

"Yes, it's true, this man is some kind of rodent or something. Or at least that's what I hear."

It probably doesn't. Though Johnny Dangerously doesn't get a lot of air time I'm aware of. :| I can't stand watching movie broadcasts long enough to find the horrid censors. I'd rather they stop doing it.

I got something that'll stop 'em...
