Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Definitely not the only one, Tommy.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Glad I'm not the only one.
It has it's own subset of Buffistas even.

What is even happening?

Mocking SM2 with Kat and Lori earlier was fun. Flying with a bad tooth was not fun.

Oh, Perkins. I hope you got some rest, and get some quick relief, today.

I have a severe localized allergy to stings, and have done much research to figure out what not to do to keep from getting stung. The next one could cause an anaphylactic reaction...or not. No way of knowing, the doctor said, and I'd really just as soon not find out.

Beverly is me, and so they scare me to death. I'm wondering if stings are more painful for me because of the reactions I get, because they sound like they hurt other people a lot less. Mine will hurt a lot, for much of the first day, like down in the muscle, and then still be sore for a day or more after.

Ann, that's a ferret.

So if your shirt was black or white Fred, this may be why you got stung while wearing it.

Just saw this.

Correct. Even worse -- black, white, and gray argyle pattern.

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

IMDB:

Movie siren Scarlett Johansson was less than impressed with Ewan McGregor's kissing prowess while filming The Island, insisting he was no better than an adolescent. Johansson shared a screen smooch with the Scottish hunk, and although many women would swoon at the thought of locking lips with the clean-cut star, Johansson was left cold. She snipes, "He kissed me like a 16-year-old schoolboy."

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

Maybe he was just skeeved by Scarlett. Could be brilliant acting on his part.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Not for nothing, if the kiss is when the clones first discover sexual impulses or whatever, it should have been like kids kissing.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

She snipes, "He kissed me like a 16-year-old schoolboy."

I choose to believe he kissed her like she was a 16-year-old schoolboy, and now I can go to my happy place.

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

IMDB's "news" is always poor on context, but Scarlett has the whole grave-snatcher thing on her resume, so it makes it easy to assume she was being critical, even if not actually sniping.

Trust my rage

How much of a geek am I that I have my iBook lying on my bed, and that when I'm awake at 3:00 a.m. I think, "Well, since I'm awake I might as well see what's going on in Buffistaland"?

My Powerbook lives next to my bed, or at least within reach. I have always hated feeling alone at night and wireless has really gone a long way in relieving that.
