oral sex — Vulgar; never use it in public.
all I could use right now is a fuckin' blow job and a cup of coffee.Good Will Hunting · 1997 — 第 9 / 21 章 · 3'53" · C1
Will worries that getting closer to Skylar will only expose what is wrong with her. Sean answers with a story about his dead wife's gas and a blunt verdict: "You're not perfect, sport." What he offers is not comfort but a rule for intimacy, and it lands harder than reassurance.
Will admits he has been seeing a girl he actually likes, then confesses he will not call her again: if he gets too close, he might find out she is ordinary. Sean refuses to flatter him. He tells a story about his late wife's embarrassing habit, argues that imperfections are the point, and says the only way to know if two people fit is to try.

Will praises the girl but never calls, so Sean tells him to just call her up.

I mean, that way you can actually go through the rest of your life...Will has a reason ready for every good thing in his life: he keeps Skylar at arm's length so the idea of her stays perfect. Sean refuses the premise. "People call these things imperfections, but they're not," he says of the small, ugly, human details he remembers about his dead wife, from her nervous gas to the night the dog woke up. His point is that the flaws are not obstacles to intimacy; they are the material of it. Will tries to flip the same logic onto Sean, asking why he does not just remarry, and Sean shuts it down: the advice is sound even if the man giving it is still grieving. Knowing everything, he argues, will never replace doing the thing once.
My wife used to fart when she was nervous.Sean opens with an unglamorous detail to prove that real intimacy is built from the embarrassing, ordinary things a couple shares, not from ideal images.
People call these things imperfections, but they're not.The heart of his argument: the flaws and quirks others would call defects are actually the private details that make a person worth loving.
but the only way you're findin' out that one is by givin' it a shot.No amount of intelligence or reading can answer whether two people fit; the only test is to actually try and risk failing.
And then we get to choose who we let into our weird little worlds.Intimacy is a choice: once you accept that everyone is odd and flawed, you decide whom to invite close enough to see it.
He is afraid that getting close will reveal she is not as special as she seems. As long as he keeps his distance, he can keep the idea of her perfect.
He uses her embarrassing habits to prove his point: the small imperfections are not flaws to fix but the very things that make someone your person.
It is old slang for having damaging information about someone. Sean means his wife knew all his private faults and small secrets.
He does not promise it will work. He only argues that Will cannot know whether they fit without trying; the answer comes from doing, not from thinking ahead.
Will turns Sean's own advice back on him, and the question lands on raw grief. Sean's "Time's up" ends the session before the subject can go further.
