Conan suggests some 'You're fired!' alternatives for Arnold Schwarzenegger's Celebrity Apprentice

Donald Trump had to give up his Apprentice empire to run for president, and NBC filled the void Monday by announcing fellow wealthy politician Arnold Schwarzenegger as the new host of The Celebrity Apprentice. But Schwarzenegger probably has to come up with a new catchphrase, since "You're fired!" is so closely tied to (and possibly trademarked by) Trump. Conan O'Brien looked back at Ahnold's film history to find an appropriate replacement — or, often, an inappropriate one — on Monday night's Conan. The first few are pretty obvious, but Conan gets creative in the middle, and Schwarzenegger should definitely ignore all of them and probably just rip up a mannequin of the losing contestant to indicate employment status.
