Default Variations of "How would you like one across your lip."

You know that famous line mentioned in the title that Fred utters? I've watched several episodes of Sanford and Son and I saw some variations, some of which I can't remember. One that I do remember is when Fred is at the museum and he's talking and one of the persons in the tour says something along the lines of, "Would you please be quiet? I'm trying to absorb this lecture." Fred then raises his fist and asks, "How would you like to absorb this?"

Any other variations?

I like the one that goes something like this.

Esther: (talking to Fred) You turkey!

Fred: How would you like me to baste you with a couple of theese.

When "Big Lou Turner" insults Fred at Donna's house, Fred raises his fist and says to him..."How would you like to decant this on the side of your face!!" This was right after Lou tells Fred he put the wine in a decanter to allow it to "breathe". I love Fred's reaction..."Breeeethe."

In the episode then Fred tries to sell those Whopper Choppers. When he is on the Cavorting Conesseur show and destroys the choppers the salesman says to him..."Mr. Sanford....im warning you!!" Fred says to him..."warn this!!" (he picks up the duck alaronge)..."you'll be wearing this duck in your ear".

What about the episode "Home Sweet Home for the Aged" where this guy asks him somewhere along the lines of "Hey, old dude, what's the problem?"

Fred replies, "I'm having a fit, that's what's wrong. You want me to fit this upside your head?"

Yep - that and Fred's response to Lou re: the aging times for wine - "and three days for 7-Up..."

I think he said it in a Julio-related ep - after a run-in with Chico out in the yard. Maybe the merger ep or the Fuentes-moving-in ep?
