Timelies all!
That's a lot of chocolate holidays. I think that means I should eat more chocolate.
We'll be in our bunk.

Natter .44 Magnum: Do You Feel Chatty, Punk?
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Madame, what you said to her was "squid", not "good morning".
Hello, I've delurked in multiple threads!
I outed myself as a dork when I said to someone "Technically, no, it's not octopi. Octopodes is correct, octopuses is less wrong."
ita speaks the truth, and as the person who sports "octopi" in her profile (not that anybody would have noticed if I'd kept my mouth shut!), I have to say that some of us have embraced wrong, ugly or just plain insane spellings (and typos) from a misplaced sense of fun.
Speaking of which and btw, there's an eerie resemblance in usage here and among my Pancakes. Now, I know a couple of us used to lurk here before, but still I wonder if it's just these two groups or if it's web-wide. Craxy? Bunnies? A few more that escape me right now...
Happy May Day! Arise ye prisoners of want! The Internationale unites the human race!

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
Were the Pancakes born on Salon as well?

Yes, in a Big Brother TV thread. (I joined them later on WX.)

I thinks its the being internet "cousins" that makes us similar.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Does that mean we can't get married?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

S'okay. ISTR a fairly long discussion of "well, of course we know penii isn't correct, but we like it!"

Har to internet cousins and penii! The twain do, um, mix.
My, I've officially nattered. I feel all changed now.
Well, back to Bach! I'm learnin' stuff there.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I haven't seen the Colbert speech yet, but even this tiny little excerpt, courtesy of Salon, is making me melty:
Wrod, Mz JZ. I love that he pissed off Laura so much she refused to shake his hand. The line that got me was:
"The greatest thing about this man is he's steady," Colbert continued, in a nod to George W. Bush. "You know where he stands. He believes the same thing Wednesday that he believed on Monday, no matter what happened Tuesday."

Always Anti-fascist!
That is great. And, for satire, sadly not all that exaggerated.
