let us retract the foreskin of ignorance and apply the wire brush of enlightenment

Well, now is the time to peel back the foreskin of misconception and apply the wire brush of enlightenment to this mass of sticky half-truths and lies. The truth hurts, but not as much as the consequences of willful ignorance.

Here Charlie is paraphrasing (probably with permission) the great Geoff Miller, who wrote in 1991:

Come, Donnie-boy, let us retract the foreskin of ignorance and apply the wire brush of enlightenment.
