Always Anti-fascist!

GG: I just don't like Logan, Sumi. I have tried, because it seems that the show does, but everything he does they think says "sweet, lovable madcap" makes me think "entitled little shit who needs the smirk wiped off his face" Maybe it's me being all Working-Class Hero, Cause I do that.

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

Eddie Izzard

"ma grand-mère est flambée…" and "Of which there are FIVE!" slay me every time. As well as "hoocha hoocha hoocha - lobster!"

"What kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist

"ma grand-mère est flambée…"

I always find some reason to show that in my French classes. You know, for educational purposes.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Also always funny: "I *wish* I had some root and a husband!"

Eddie Izzard did a bit, mmff... I think it's the encore for Glorious. With the computer and the printer, and the error messages? Pretty much every time I see it, I end up weeping.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Also always funny: "I *wish* I had some root and a husband!"

Holy ass, I totally forgot about that conversation. I'm using Fay's AIFG post in my book intro, and it makes me giggle every time I give another pass to the chapter.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

One of my favorite always-funny bits is the WKRP in Cincinnati Thanksgiving episode.

As God is my witness, I though turkeys could fly.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

CALLI! I just read so fast after being offline all day to post that, and you scoop me by five fucking minutes.

I can't believe I even tried.

::sniff::

There was other stuff, but in my grief I can't recall.

Oh, the humanity.
