"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

What else would make a good Holiday Tree topper?

I have a sort of folk-art Santa topper. The only problem is he does look like he's spending the holidays with a tree up his butt.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

What are some of the other examples, so I can get my dander good and up?

I'd have to poke through the archives. It's not always the titles -- some of the quotes are pretty damn racist/sexist/etc too. (And many of them are fake, which just makes them racist/sexit/etc AND lame.)

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I think they were talking about this season's opener, which featured members of the Bartlett Administration gathered for the Bartlett Library dedication. Josh comes running up to say that the President is arriving, but we see not who it is. Donna and Leo were not there. (although it is possible they mentioned him in the dialogue, I don't have total recall).

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

juliana, do you still have my cell?

Nope. I think I only called you from Deb's. Please to email?

And hey - Vesuvio's is right near my new place. Coolth.

Thanks, you guys.

I am now consumed with the desire to find a sun topper for future holiday trees. YEs.

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

some of the quotes are pretty damn racist/sexist/etc too

That doesn't bother me.

And many of them are fake

That, on the other hand, does.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

As far as home defense goes, I'd be scared of the tragic potential my own accident prone-ness would give a handgun. But I have either a hockey stick, broom handle, or metal shower rod in every room. And highly caustic cleaning supplies that would take a lot of the fight (or at least aim) out of an intruder in most of them.

Also, I know where all the windows are located and all but the bathroom's are big and low-silled enough that I could push an off-balance person out through them without too much trouble.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Here's the TWoP recap mentioning who was there:

And then Jed walks up to some of the old gang. We see Danny (standing with his hand on C.J.'s back), C.J., Toby, Kate, Charlie, and Will.

No Leo, Donna, or Josh.

eta: oops... Later, there is a line where Josh comes in.

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

I can't think of any way to keep a gun safely and be thinking of using it for self-defense in my apartment, mind. I'm just not going to get enough lead time in that small square footage. But that's part of the problem of stickfighting too. Room to swing.

Ah, well. Nobody better attack me.

What is man-made leather? I just saw boots described as being of "man-made stretch leather." Did an animal die or not? If not, dude, not leather.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Kat, why are you packing up your classroom?

Because I'm going off track and another teacher will be using the room I'm in while I'm gone.

I'm pretty sad about John Spencer. I wonder if they knew he had heart troubles when they wrote the heart attack stuff from a few seasons ago?
