One of you is gonna fall and die, and I'm not cleaning it up!

Others are more explicit and much too bawdy to be printed here.
But you enjoyed looking at them, didn't you? And that's the kind of thing that will make people go looking for them...
And seriously: most kids will either not look, or when they don't understand it, they'll go somewhere else. And the writer clearly simply ignored ff.n.

Not a scandal rag, but very conservative and full of the sort of Scottish kitsch that Tom Leonard once summed up as "the Snottery Weans Competition." I could be misremembering which paper this was, but that's what I think of.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I feel silly making this request, but does anyone know of any good Buffy/C.S.I. crossovers?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I haven't seen any, Anne. Let me do a sweep.

I bop to Wittgenstein. -- Nutty

YET ANOTHER CHARACTER: It doesn't snow in this town!
AUTHOR: Shut up and string tinsel. My fic.
I wish I could be that bossy with them. Also, snerk.
