Hsu: The first rule of med school fight club is you don't talk about med school fight club.
Marten: A picture tells a thousand words.

Marten: You look terrible! WHo was your last patient?
Punching Intern: I dunno. Some overworked web cartoonist muttering about buttrockets.

Marten: What happened to you?
Hsu: I don't exactly know. This thing that looked like a ButtRocket swooped down and ran straight into me.

HSU: "My daddy left home when I was three
And he didn't leave much to ma and me
Just an old guitar and an empty bottle of booze.
Now, I don't blame him cause he run and hid
But the meanest thing that he ever did
Was before he left, he went and named me 'Hsu'"

MARTEN: "Well, he must o' thought that is quite a joke
And it got a lot of laughs from a' lots of folk,
It seems you had to fight your whole life through."

HSU: "Some gal would giggle and I'd get red
And some guy'd laugh and I'd bust his head,
I tell ya, life ain't easy for a boy named 'Hsu.'"

MARTEN: "... what kind of guitar?"

MARTEN: "Hsu! Dude, it's been too long! What brings you to the Emergency Room?"

HSU: "All I'll say is that when Jeph says 'I'll call you when I need you again', you shouldn't wait up for the call."

The Chinese surnames 徐 and 许, which used to be romanised as Hsu, are Xu in modern pinyin, and are pronounced roughly like "shoe" in Standard Mandarin.

HSU: "It still ain't easy."
MARTEN: "You telling me I should have gone with sole music instead of country?"

Huh, two different surnames that were both romanized as Hsu? Do they sound just so slightly different that native English speakers can't hear the difference?

Also, does either of them sound slightly more like "Chu", "Chew", or "Jew"? I grew up in San Francisco and have had Chinese classmates with all three of those spellings, presumably from going through the West Coast equivalent of Ellis Island.
