there's always somebody faster.
Animated GIF of scene from Hackers (1995) movie with the character Dade Murphy (Jonny Lee Miller) standing in his bedroom looking at mirror and practicing quick-draw techniques with a floppy disk. He stands calmly and then frantically whips a green 3.5-inch floppy disk out and holds it up but then hesitates and smirks at the sillyness of his appearance doing the manoeuvre.

In the Wild

A Bell Canada payphone inside a phonebooth, blue plastic top coin deposit, black body and receiver and yellow phonecard slot. It's got some dust and mud marks, not clean. Has a Cyberdelia sticker on its side. A number of green weeds/plants have overgrown into the booth and are creeping up to the base of the mounted phone. A sign above says Bell Crime Stoppers with a Canadian flag. Text: If you know of anyone who is responsible for damage to Bell Canada equipment, or have knowledge of any other crime, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS. A tree and grass and edge of a brown brick building can be seen in distance behind the booth.
Hello, Crime Stoppers? Gonna call these plants in.
