No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Spike's Bitches 32: I think I'm sobering up.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

But MND isn't really about communications issues fucking things up. It's the damn meddling fairies.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

I once saw a very Goth Dream. Essentially all the fair folk were undead - mostly walking corspes, but I think spirts where they were required to be more nimble. I've seen worse MDs. And faerie folk were originally the ghosts of a dead race, the people inside the hollow hill. So making them undead well within the spirit of the myth - though pretty obviously not what Shakespeare had in mind.

Also I once saw a truly awful MacBeth in which Heston played the lead. The man even in his prime was obviously not a stage actor. I forget who played lady MacBeth also a really major film actress - one who did OK, but was not really suited for the role.

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

Just one more reason to not let them marry!

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

Maybe that's why they meddle.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

The misunderstanding-that-can-be-resolved-by-one-conversation thing annoys me in any show.

That comes up in discussion a lot on some romance lists I used to frequent. If your whole dramatic set up could be resolved in one conversation, and more, one conversation which any normal person would have, or a question any sane person would ask, it's not worth my time.

A Midsummer Night's Dream is my favorite Shakespeare play, but I have never seen a production of it that is really good.

The Milwaukee Symphony did a pretty good production in conjuction with the Milwaukee Ballet last year. Red Foreman was t memfault the one who gets turned into an ass. And I think the director was Q.

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

Bottom.

All is well that ends in pizza.

It annoys me IRL when one's job is on the line.

I'm getting the pig!

Oh dear. I promised a co-worker that I'd watch Dancing With The Stars tonight. She wants my take on Mario Lopez on a dance floor. (Truth be told, I wasn't really watching his feet. Boy has a nice ass, though.)

It isn't as painful as I thought it'd be but I'd rather be watching just about anything other than Jerry Springer right now.
