And another from the estimable Mr. billytea, this time in Buffy:
Joss has put down his copy of King Lear and is now taking his ideas from The Rules.
(It's only spoilery for the tone of the episode, and that in an elliptical way.)
This is a time of celebration, so sit still and be quiet.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.

Angus, to Billytea:
bt, did you learn all this stuff from your crazy-ass denomination's Bible college? Because if so, I have a newfound respect for the scholarly standards of crazy-ass denominations.

billytea:
"close your eyes and think of England."
I've always wondered about that. Is England supposed to be particularly erotic or something? Does 'shaped like a jagged dildo' really hold that much appeal?

Catching up in the Buffy thread:
(Whitefonted for premiere spoilers)
Jesse: "Buffy still thinks it's good idea to hide her formerly-evil, gone-for-a-while, now-crazy, vampire ex-lover and not tell her friends? Doesn't she know that never ends well?"

And another Buffy/premiere thing:
Sumi: Oh, and by the way everyone, Willow is CONNECTED to the EARTH.
Madrigal: Yeah, but now the Earth has got nasty big pointy teeth. (OMG. Anya's finally right. It is bunnies.)
Victor: How's that working out for ya, babe? */Minear*

"It's very hard to claim a gas leak when twenty students are calling 911 to report flaming trolls."
Madrigal, on the cell phones ban in Sunnydale High.
(This isn't spoilery. No flaming trolls. Really.)

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Just some of the rave reviews received by the prettiest penis in the world, according to JZ its biographer (in Natter):
"Speaking as a straight man, I never imagined a penis could be aesthetically pleasing, but wow!"
"It's perfect. It's really just perfect."
"It's... artistic, is what it is. The symmetry, the color, the... well, you just have to see it."
"When he drops his pants, it's like you can see the little red velvet curtain rising and the cherubs on either side with their little gold trumpets going 'Tan-ta-RA!'"

kat perez:
I love both Giles and Willow, but if she'd said one more thing about how "It's all connected." I would've had to smack her around a little(virtually that is).
billytea:
Just take a swing at the next person you see. It's all connected. She’ll get the message.

[BTW, are we whitefonting for Firefly spoilers here?]
billytea: But, but... westerns happened a long time ago! And space things happen a long time in the future! They have no business bearing lovechildren! none at all!
Feh. In my day, kids damn well respected the space-time continuum.
PMM: Cowboys in the space-time continuum?
ita: And this is their sofa.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
TomW:
I think the conflicting stories on the astrophysics boil down to something like: "We don't know anything about astronomy. There are some planets. They are distributed in whatever way you would like to imagine that makes sense. Please watch our show."
