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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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

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

Good times... good times....

I like Studio 60. Matthew Perry is the best part about it for me. What I *hate* are the comedy skits. I often end up hitting the MUTE button so I don't have to endure the awful "funny" parts.

Who here hasn't wondered what would happen if you mircrowaved some CDs and then attached them to a Tesla coil?

Actually, the results are quite pretty....

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

I thought it was interesting how the sketch that they showed the most of last week -- the "Jenny Doens't Have a Baby" one -- was the one that every character acknowledged wasn't funny.

When you're racing - it's life. Anything that comes before or after is just waiting.

That's awesome.

Is it sad that everytime I hear/see Tesla coil I think of Eureka?

Ahahaha. Somehow, it's reassuring to know that reading comprehension skills in Corporate America haven't improved in the six months I've been away.

What is even happening?

I always figured cocksicle was an Allysonism.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I don't remember how it arrived, but this was definitely first season Smallville. Maybe it was the episode Zero, where Lex was trussed up and hung upside down? That thread was fun.
