My father just calls his wife by her name. Or he calls her our mother. She does him the parallel favour.
Xander: Look who's got a bad case of Dark Prince envy. Dracula: Leave us. Xander: No, we're not going to "Leabbb you." And where'd you get that accent, Sesame Street? "One, Two, Three - three victims! Maw ha ha!"

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

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Heh. I live just off Devon (aka the Sari Strip
My cat is a Devon Rex, so I have this weird association between cats and Indian food in my mind....

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Images of a Barney parody getting clobbered with an anvil is at least bringing me a small amount of amusement right now.
This is one of the game options on the Animaniacs computer game, btw. Emmett was just playing it this weekend. Every time the faux Barney gets clonked with an anvil he giggle gurgles "Whoa ho ho, that hurts!"

I have not liked this week. I need a weekend like last weekend, and for next week to be healthier and less work-annoying than this one.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Ooh! I might have to try to find that. When was this game released?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
This week was much better than last week for me. That's not saying much, but it's something.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
How come I'm not surprised that Robin's dad would be charming?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Why is it only 2:40? It feels like 5, at least.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Another favorite thing of my father's (that I can see could be annoying and/or offensive from a less-charming person) is, "I don't care what your mother says, you're not so bad...." when I do/say something good.

Well, back when Animaniacs was still on the air. But it does still run on the newish iMac.
It's got a golf game with Dot, and the Burpinator 3000 where you have to go to lots of levels and destroy robots with burps. There's a racing game with obstacles and the anvil game which is really a variation on Breakout. But with lots of other Animaniacs fun! (Dot's golf song is pretty catchy.)
