Shampoo is better! I go on first and clean the hair! Conditioner is better! I leave the hair silky and smooth! Oh, really, fool? Really! (Notices gold swan on edge of tub) Stop looking at me, swan!
— Billy Madison • 1995

What it means
Our interpretation.
The speaker argues loudly on behalf of shampoo, then conditioner, as if the two products were rivals, then turns the shouting on a swan they notice nearby. It is a comically absurd bathtime tantrum.
