Wow, I still remember that.
Now I did a job. I got nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character so let me make this abundantly clear. I do the job. And then I get paid.

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

I was going to weigh in on Studio 60, but bon bon just nailed every problem I had with the show last night.
AmyLiz, regarding:
It's sharp dialogue without meaning, most of the time.
Without going into spoilers, I will say in a roundabout way, I think my problem with last night's show was it felt like everything had meaning. Which just felt ponderous. Every episode feels like it's striving to be something more, yet I find myself enjoying little asides from Matt or his wry reactions to things much more than the big moments.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Now I can't decide if I should bother watching Studio 60 or not. If it's going to get canceled, I guess I might as well?

CAKESICLE, CAKESICLE, THE WORD HAS LOST ALL MEANING.
...or something like that, right? I love half-knowing about inside jokes I wasn't even inside of.

Because books.
I don't know the joke, but that pan is awesome! I want one. Now.

Cocksicle, wasn't it? Something Emily said re: Smallville?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Shawn: cocksicle. Again, I repeat, adolescent giggle factor. I wish I could use this word more often in everyday life, but it simply does not come up frequently enough in class.
"Well, Professor Simma, don't you think that *not* having a provision in which countermeasures must be stopped when states have a claim before an international tribunal would basically make international tribunals into cocksicles? I mean, really?"
Plei: I'm finding the stupidest excuses to use cocksicle, but as I'm unemployed, it's mostly me yelling at my cats "Ohm, stop being a cocksicle and get off my dry cleaning!" or "Mo, you cocksicle, can't you see I'm trying to type? Off! Off!"
Emily S.: See, that would seem to imply that it'd be a bad thing. As opposed to,
"Oh man, after a day like that, I could sure use a cocksickle."
"It went down smooth and satisfying as a cocksickle."
"My goodness, ita, you look like the cat that got the cocksickle."
Cocksickle, cocksickle... the word has lost all meaning.
Kate P.: I imagine a bevy of Buffistas cavorting madly through the virtual meadows of the Internet, yelling "COCKSICLE! COCKSICLE!" everywhere they go.

The COCKSICLE thing was about WX not allowing the word "cock" in taglines, so they used a 0.
