The Dark Tower/Wizard and Glass/Awesome


  • Both Roland's and Eddie's confrontation of the insane AI running the monorail train at the beginning of the book qualify for this. When Blaine demands a riddle from them, Roland only answered with a simple and calm "Fuck you." Blaine becomes enraged as Roland refuses to give him a riddle, scorning him by comparing him to a gadget and how even the lowest beggar or the vilest being was far better than Blaine was.

Blaine: I COMMAND YOU TO STOP IT OR I WILL KILL YOU RIGHT HERE!
Roland: Kill if you will but command me nothing! You have forgotten the face of those who made you! Now either kill us or be silent and listen to me, Roland of Gilead, son of Steven, gunslinger and lord of ancient lands! I have not come all the miles and all the years to listen to your childish prating! Do you understand? Now you will listen to ME!
