Re: listening question!
Hi kuolun,
The sentence is "I'm going to report you to your superiors for the most unpardonable rudeness and insolence it's ever been my privilege..."
Just so you know, she was probably going to finish it with "my privilege to encounter" or something like that. Calling rudeness and insolence a "privilege" is a kind of sarcasm.
By the way, where did you get this from? The way she talks sounds like it's from a 1950's movie.
