Now they're clapping and chanting "Habemus Papam!"
I'm waiting for the Papal cabbage patch.
Jayne: That's a good idea. Good idea. Tell us where the stuff's at so I can shoot you. Mal: Point of interest? Offering to shoot us might not work so well as an incentive as you might imagine.

If I only had a brain...

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
We had big traffic snarl-ups in Chicago this morning because of the image of the Virgin Mary that apparently is masquerading as water damage on an underpass.
Where is that, brenda?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
David Bowie in "Labyrinth". About as far from Inquisitor-in-Waiting Delay as you can get. Though I'm imagining a Delay vs. Goblin King smackdown.
The arousal and revulsion swimming through my brain silumtaneously is about to make me pass out.

Though I'm imagining a Delay vs. Goblin King smackdown.
Never gonna happen, I hear the Goblin King takes money from Delay.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I'm waiting for the Papal cabbage patch.
I actually have a visual in my head of what that dance might be.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola
Oh, honestly. In an article about the need to " Make History Strong in our Schools," they use as an example of why this startling statistic:
In one survey, students aged 8-12 could name more alcoholic beverages than presidents of the United States.
What is wrong with these people? Of course they can! You want to fix that, start buying billboards and ad time for McKinley and Taft -- don't bitch about adolescents' awareness of the world around them! Mind you, the later points are a bit better, like "More elite college seniors thought the general at Yorktown was Grant (37 percent) than Washington (34 percent)." Uh... Yorktown? Oh, right, Revolutionary not Civil. Still... "Fewer knew the source of 'Government of the people, by the people, and for the people' (22 percent) than could identify Beavis & Butthead (99 percent)" Yeah, okay. Guilty.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I saw a wee baby on Sunday that prompted me to say "Wow. It's Ticky-box sized." I wonder if the mother heard me.
