Quote from Frasier in Leapin' Lizards
Frasier: So, you would have me ridiculed for the sake of those hyenas! Kate: No, I would have you fight back. He makes pot shots at you, you come back at him in your droll, Ivy League, "look at me, I've got a thesaurus" kind of way! It'll be funny. Frasier: Funny?! Funny!?
