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.

Spike's Bitches 27: I'm Embarrassed for Our Kind.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Now tagless for your comfort.

This time, Aidan turned toward his Daddy, smacked the keyboard hard with one hand, and said, "FUCK IT!" and then walked away.

The stuff I miss when I skim. Oy! Owen likes to bang on my keyboard but he's a little pre-verbal for "fuck it!" But that's only a matter of time. We're pretty sure the boy will swear like a stevadore.

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

Then he'll be back in the running for Emma's hand.

Which is probably for the best since Aidan and Lili are an OTP buffista/goth-wise.

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

I'm curious as to why you see this as liberal thinking.

It's probably more an opportunity to whip out a Principal Snyder quote.

Um, that's a Buffy reference. I don't think she meant anything by it.

It's a riff on an S2 or maybe S3 Buffy quote, dear.

(Dear being Dylan and not Burrell, not that Burrell is not a dear person and all, but I'm not Southern enough to "darling" and "honey" and "dear" everyone in sight.)

Yeah, and even without knowing so explicitly, the use of "fuzzy-minded" and "gets you eaten" generally indicate some sort of jokyness.

And now that we have the rules of humour down pat...

Sometimes I think Annabel means to forego ever learning to talk and instead communicate through interpretive dance.

We were both sitting here having our lunches. I looked over and asked if she was done and ready for her nap. She immediately tore off her bib and gave an exaggerated, theatrical yawn.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

And now that we have the rules of humour down pat...

What about pratfalls? What's the verdict on them? Funny, or just lame?

Depends. If there are props -- not funny. If the prat is English -- funny. Otherwise (or in intersecting cases), we need to evaluate individually.
