billytea: I think that if the guy asks me again if I hear voices, I'm going to claim I hear my testicles, and they're plotting against each other.
Very cute Allyson.
Zoe: Jayne. This is something the Captain has to do for himself. Mal: No! No, it's not!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Joss Whedon: Wait a minute, Gus! I just thanked Allyson for posting the message and then you went and did it! Now I have to thank a whole nother person? You think I got time to be thanking people all day? I mean, I'm a very important writer type! I have certain DEMANDS on my time but do you care, no, you just trundle about doing favors and making people thank you. Maybe it's time you thought about somebody else for a change, huh pal? Thanks -- for nothin'! -- except posting that message like I asked! Pal! Sheesh!

I look more rad than Lutheranism
shrift: I used to be all Work Ethic Person, giving that 110% effort, blah blah dedication-cakes.
Fast forward a few years working in corporate America.
I now slink around at work hiding in the shadows, no longer particularly punctual and only randomly productive. If the boss wants to find me, he has to resort to luring me out of my den with donuts, standing well out of reach, because even middle-management can tell I'm feral. I get even worse when it's time for the home office to send in the goons who'll jump me in the shower again, 'cause I've been shanked so damn much that I've lost count.
I write porn at work now, and am very put out when they interrupt me with these ridiculous requests to fix computers.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
One more....
FayJay: and Allison, that would be a great big yes please from Camp FayJay.
(which is where I live - it's like Camp David, only all the men in uniform are dancing to disco tunes and getting groinal with one another at my command...)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Man, this is exactly what I needed tonight. I had a ridiculously bad time at work, all things considered, to the point where I got a bottle of wine and a bag of Andy Capp's Hot Fries for dinner. But now? Things are looking up.
ita: I'm pretty sure we'll need to lose the slash.
My god, I can't believe I said that.

Heh heh heh...
Tim Minear: I've made fandom jokes in the past -- but my feeling is until you've walked a mile in my spock ears, you haven't earned the right.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Suddenly I'm feeling the problem with the funniest people living in the wrong time zones.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Ginger: Stuckeys was one of the first chains to be located along interstates, so people venturing for the first time to the wilds of Florida would stop at Stuckeys to use the bathroom and to buy pecan rolls, which are basically divinity rolled in pecans.
Miracleman: Baby Jesus rolls?
Hecubus: Only if you start him at the top of a hill.

Dude! I had a snappy rejoinder! That is so not my usual humor.

ita: DX has no beard anymore.
DXMachina: Just so we're clear, she means that I shaved my face.
