"I don't think I had a Catherine Bach poster, but I know a lot of my friends desecrated those, big time"
About this Quote
“Catherine Bach poster” isn’t just a name-drop; it’s a time capsule. Bach, as Daisy Duke, sits in the cultural memory as pre-internet pin-up royalty: a mainstream, living-room sex symbol you could buy at the mall and tape to your wall. That specificity anchors the joke in a certain generational adolescence - analog desire, shared fantasies, physical evidence.
The verb “desecrated” does the heavy lifting. It’s comically over-moral, borrowing church language to describe the messy reality of teenage boys and masturbation. That mismatch is the engine of the humor: he elevates the act to something almost sacrilegious, which both heightens the absurdity and signals he knows exactly how gross it sounds. “Big time” then seals the tone in frat-house vernacular, the kind of casual emphasis that makes the exaggeration feel “true” even if it’s performative.
Coming from Scott - forever associated with American Pie-era raunch as a brand of nostalgia - the subtext is wink-wink self-mythmaking: he’s selling an anecdote that’s half embarrassment, half bonding ritual, and entirely calibrated for laughs.
