Is that a person whose third language is English?
Buffy: A Guide, but no water or food. So it leads me to the sacred place and then a week later it leads you to my bleached bones? Giles: Buffy, really. It takes more than a week to bleach bones.

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.

NATLBSBYep! It's free to all takers.
I just went to make it my tagline, and then I saw this tag (for posterity: Look, there's a few of us. We talk to one another. I don't want to have to talk to anyone else. --Grace ) from a JoA episode, and had to use it.
What for are you point, sindi?//??
Biscuit of dismalality, round my points are all.

I clicked on the Kelsey Grammer link in horror, but actually I can see him as Beast. I'm reserving judgment.
No Hugh Jackman, on the other hand, is just.... shudder.
Aren't the X-Men movies the best films he's made?

So, cross-posted with Bitches because I actually meant to put it here: Yay! I finished my paper! It's crap, but I finished it! Also my debate notes, so I now have everything I need to finish the crap class! Oh, except a one-minute presentation on my paper, but I have this nifty metaphor worked out which should take up most of a minute.
Anybody want to hear my nifty metaphor?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
but did you use foamy, jackhole, or jicki?
No, ma'am. Foamy doesn't have a broad enough non-Buffista base. Jackhole, while useful, was not applicable. I don't know nuffin' about jicki.

jicki is a family thing - it means stupid. alternate spelling is jicky. Someone who is jicki is a jickwad.

Ahem. So, let's say you have this lovely nutritious liquid, full of all kinds of good things to make you richer and stronger and smarter and more powerful, etc. and there's an endless supply of it coming through a tap. You're in charge of the tap, and there's about thirty people who need to get some. One option would be to say, "Okay, folks, get your cups and come on up, get as much as you can handle at once -- I've got all kinds of flavorings and stuff up here, so you can go ahead and add sugar or lemon or chocolate, or you can have it as soup and add curry or vegetables or whatever. If there are any problems with it, you let me know." The other option is to get a hose, tell people to sit down and open their mouths, and spray them with it.
ETA: You think that'll take up a minute, or should I add the moral onto the end?
