            Chili Palmer: ..I think you mean i.e. E.G. means for example
            Ray Bones: bull****, e.g. is greek it's short for ergo
            Chili Palmer: Why don't you ask your man?
            Black Thug: To the best of my knowledge e.g. means for example.
            Ray Bones: A.E. I.E. **** you, the point is when I say jump, you say okay. okay?
