Let me just say that popularity with people on public transportation does not equal literary respect. --Jesse

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Tom Scola's tagline, which just made me laugh and laugh:
"I" "am" "not" "ironic"

FayJay, in Bitches
Hi there, good people! I'm FayJay! You may recall me from previous posts, such as "pornpornpornknobspornpornvampirespornpornknobsporn", "Whoops, there go my knickers" and "But I just want to be Canadian", but the exigencies of Real Life and my inability to keep up with the whistlestop pace of this thread have made me an unfamiliar virtual face here Chez Bitchez. Um. But, as I was saying, Good evening one and all.

Hey! She's quoting me. I think I deserve a footnote.

there is something to be said for the lyric and imperial attitude / believe that everything is for you until you discover that you are for it

Emily's Helpful Notes for Writers, #583:
Lathe? Lave? Two different words. You cannot "lathe" someone's skin. It's a noun. And even if you could? They would not have sex with you afterward.
Betsy Hanes Perry - And laving somebody's skin has inappropriate church resonances anyway, at least for those of us in Catholic-derived churches. I mean, I keep expecting there to be silver laver, and a heck of a lot of linen to launder.
Ms. Havisham - Well, you could lathe them down to an amusingly-shaped toy...
Madrigal Costello - Oh, see I was trying to think of what body part one could use for the lathing. I mean, there's one obvious one, but the spinning would tricky unless they were on a merry-go-round or sturdy lazy-susan.
Betsy Hanes Perry - I mean, I hear "his tongue laved her breast" and it's like hearing "her fear transubstantiated into desire".

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
FayJay, on the appeal of Stargate:
Teal'c is mine, I tell you, all mine. He just needs a nice English girl with a burning passion for apostrophes, a fascination with Ancient Egypt and a hardon for strapping, earnest & honourable chaps with broad shoulders and permanent sparkly eyeshadow.

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket
Jen:
There really needs to be a musical genre called "apocalypso". Beautiful, lilting rhythms describing the end times--who wouldn't be hooked?
(PS. "Apocalypsi" is so wrong)

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola
in Due South, somewhat in reference to Stargate:
SA: Now I have to become a large, buff black man who wears eyeshadow.
FayJay: Yes. Because then I would never ever stop licking you. Ever.

Good News For Beep Me: I've got a very good shot at getting published in a national magazine! Further details in "Great Write Way", this is just the attention-seeking behavior therapists used to warn me about. And you will not get rid of me over Turkey day, cause you guys are my most favorite homicide preventative.I mean, since we took the attorney off speed-dial.

Now tagless for your comfort.
lori in Buffy not spoilery in that it refers to cats and the word, lave:
When our cat Maceo does this, with his back foot raised straight up in the air as if he's raising his hand in class, we have this conversation:
Us: Who's licking their own ass?
Maceo: I am! I am!
