Those are the lines spoken in the episode, which I guess are very much like lines in the play? I haven't read it since high school, I think, so I have no clue.
So neat that they worked that in!
Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That's awesome. I had no idea.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Fascinating.
I've never read or watched Godot. Is there a movie version that's good (is there more than one?)? I'm not very good at reading plays (or screenplays, which irritates).

Me neither, just pastiches. I would also love a recommendation, it feels like a hole in my cultural knowledge.

I've never actually seen it performed. Not that I remember, anyway.
We read SO many plays in high school, most of which I've never seen performed, actually. That seems wrong.

hip deep in pie
According to IMDB there's a filmed version starring Barry McGovern (the man in question in GoT.) [link]
I'm not sure how it would translate to film...

Maybe it made you better at reading them?
The only play I remember enjoying reading is Henry IV pt I and I've never seen it performed. But somehow the rest (Our Town, Othello (GOD I HATE WATCHING THAT), Henry V) I've all seen.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
I saw Waiting for Godot at a University Play competition, the name of which escapes me right now. Anyway, it was a very, very long play. Which really drove home the theme of futility.
I seem to remember that Ian McKellan and Patrick Stewart were in or going to be in a production.
