Lines around the block for blowjobs.
Actually the lines made no mention of blowjobs. If that helps.
It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

If I only had a brain...
Thanks. I feel correct now.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
Yes, I know, I stole a funny Firefly line and sullied it with un-funnyness. It'll come back to haunt me one day.
(Officially not Tim Minear. Nor funny.)

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.
Thanks ita.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Nope. Perhaps FauxTim meant that women were lined up to service his Mercedes.
Though, I've driven past Tim's block many times and saw no signs of these Jiffy Lube mechanics with no Y chromosomes lined up with socket wrench in hand.

What is even happening?
Is socket wrench a euphemism?

No. But I wonder if such a line ever happens, if he'll be kind enough to let me know so I can perhaps bring my Chevy by as a fluffer.

I can't even.
And if you think it pertains to you then it probably does.
A vague disclaimer is nobody's friend? This smacks of censorship to me, which is unwise at best on the innernets. In plainer english, allow us grownups to decide for ourselves what's funny, thanks. That came out much more polite than it was in my head, which I regret, but that's typing for you.

JohnSweden - but if we censored the unfunny things in society, we'd get rid of Charmed and such. Assuming we all have the same sense of humour, of course. If it's democratically decided I suppose we'd end up with endless episodes of Friends on TV (which pretty much defines English TV, actually - bastard).

If we get rid of Charmed, we lose Julian McMahon footage, so I forbid it.
As you were.
