You don't have to be standing up anything to be exercise. So it's not our fault. And it's totally not the fault of that chick whose shoe testimonial Betsy quoted in Bitches.
Mal: Can I come in? Inara: No. Mal: See? That's why I usually don't ask.

[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.

Hey. New board.
sounds like someone needs a girlfriend.
The original poster or the giggler (me)?
Cuz... I have one. I'm just twelve.

I may have to seize the cat.
Nerdalert:
The difference between lay and lie is that lay is transitive and lie is intransitive. You cannot lie something else down; you cannot lay down without either a direct object or a passive verb.
The "get laid" mnemonic is pretty useful, actually.
You can get laid, but in traditional parlance you cannot get lied. Lie is always active, lay can be active (but only with a direct object!) or passive.
Also? Tim Minear is cool. I wonder if he has advice on how to keep 11-month old beagle puppies from biting you.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
So ... and I've been thinking about this ... my biggest complaint about Tim doing a Spike movie is that Tim wouldn't be able to do what he does best. Namely, killing him.
Sure, he could kill other people. That would be jim dandy. But killing Spike at this point would be redundant. I'm not sure, but I think he's caught up with Darla in the death and ressurection racket.
Otherwise, let's face it -- I'll go just about anywhere Tim goes, and just about anywhere Joss goes, and just about anywhere the Buffyverse goes.
Because I'm a whore like that. And I know I'm not alone.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I always confuse "compose" and "comprise" no matter how often I look "comprise" up.
"Comprise" means "is composed of," basically.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.
Tim, Allyson, and ita, it was great to see you at the Serenity premiere.
I'm still disappointed that I didn't get to meet Kiba or see Kristen.
That is all.

Hi, Tamara! I have no idea why I was surprised you were there ... but I think I was more surprised to be recognised. Of course you were going to be there.

I was lucky enough to be invited by a guy who had an extra ticket. It was fabulous night.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
The difference between lay and lie is that lay is transitive and lie is intransitive.I was in the hospital (visting, not admitted) for a long time tonight and there was a sign on the wall asking visitors not to lay on the beds.
It had already been corrected by someone else. Which pleased me.
I could just imagine someone there, staring at it and *having* to correct it because if you are going to be staring at the same, damn thing for hours, it best be gramatically correct.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I was visiting at the police station and saw "This way to the breathilizer" on two separate signs. As twitchy as my hand was, reaching for the Sharpie in my bag? I resisted. I had no wish to fight a defacing of public property charge.
