Some catchphrases contain profanity or derogatory expressions, so consider the situation and the audience when using them. In particular, lines like "Shut your damn mouth, you bitch" are extremely strong expletives and should absolutely not be used in public settings or situations requiring politeness. Additionally, be careful as they might cause misunderstanding or offense to those unfamiliar with the film's context.
