Aw, you are all mo fridge, for sure.
Mal: Well, look at this! Appears we got here just in the nick of time. What does that make us? Zoe: Big damn heroes, sir.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Because books.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
No, people using the same terms of endearments over and over is just how married people talk. It doesn't ping me in the same way as, say, Claire comparing literally everyone sees for the first time to an unbelievably specific kind of animal. ("so and so was such and such, looking like nothing more than an adolescent koala who has just remembered his grandmother's favorite brand of washing powder.")

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
I read the first ... four maybe ... of the Outlander books, but got exhausted. Those things are LONG.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
They might be less tiring to read in electronic format. Holding the books was physically taxing.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I couldn't read them- but I don't really get along with long books like Lord of the Rings or Game of Thrones either. The longest book I read for pleasure is probably either Gone with The Wind or Tommyknockers. And Tommyknockers almost killed me! I can read long non-fiction books, though.
I have also been reading a lot of historical by Courtney Milan- they are pretty amusing.

Because books.
Tessa Dare's historical romances are also a lot of fun -- smart, sexy, light, but with kickass heroines. I've loved all of them.

Our wings are not tired.
Very long, multi-volume fiction is my thing so I was delighted. With added bonus of timey wimey. However, if Mary Sue's Jamie's nose, eyelashes, and body aroma were mentioned a few less times it would have been a much shorter series.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I love you people. I am laughing so hard right now.
