Now tagless for your comfort.

Oh, I like that, brenda!

Sigh. My parents are about to turn 78 and 79. They are both deaf as posts, scary to drive with, and my dad has, on occasion, wore light blue pants with the waistband hiked close to his armpits. I've finally had to concede that they are old.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I'll vote for the Seward title - it ties in nicely with the current one.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

Good point, juliana. It just doesn't seem snarky enough. Which means I should think of something snarky, but I'm failing miserably at that.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

P-C, I just laughed so hard that I snorted, which in turn made my throat hurt.

Well done.

No, Crying of Natter 49 is still best.

You can't leave me to my own devices; my devices are Nap and Eat. -Zenkitty

Okay, whereas Cindy didn't get the Pynchon reference, I am not getting the 49 -- Shock the Monkey relationship.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Not dead yet!

And P-C made me laugh so loud I'd have scared the cat, if I had one. Instead I'm stuck at the office for another 30 minutes until I can run for the last bus. Damnit.

(Stupidhead subcontractors who make me make up shit to write for them because they don't have data. Who needs data, anyway?)

There will be no Connie dying! None of the Connies! They are like the Fates; they are eternal.

Thank you. Can I be the Fate with the scissors?

Also, waitaminnit, I was probably 15 when Harrison Ford was 49, and old was not what I called him. The old goalposts have moved, missy.

Hell, yes.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.

As a (late-to-the-party-due-to-waay-too-much-work) mostly-lurker, I just want to add my expression of awe at the way you all have handled this. This place is so unlike any other Internet community I have ever known, and I mean that in an entirely complimentary way. I didn't know much of Gus beyond his giant love of Firefly (and who doesn't respect that?) and appreciating the way he expressed himself here. You all have been so respectful and....well, nice. (It's a boring word, but did I mention I've been working too hard?) I don't feel like I participate nearly enough around here to actually consider myself a Buffista, but I'm definitely proud and happy to be a regular reader.
