'The Cautionary Tale of Numero Cinco'
This thread is for Buffista quotage. Posts that are profound, witty, or otherwise deserving of immortality go here. This is also Shrift's source for the BRQG, so be aware that if your words end up here, they'll also end up there. Finally, please note which thread spawned the quotage and please white-out anything that might be spoilery to Un-Americans.
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.)
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.
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."
John H:
And our marketing people seem always to want to set up internet access, so people can look at our websites, but they also seem always to want to do it in some kind of tent or caravan or truck. Then they ask me why the connections speed is so lame and our sites look bad as a result. This will now be the fourth year in a row I've told them "Because we're in a tent! The nearest phone outlet is half a mile away, through those trees and so we had to use half a mile of cable to connect to it. Birds are sitting on the wire! It passes over three hot dog stands, under the bleachers of the stadium and past a radio station doing a live broadcast".
Meara: Power? Is THAT what they're calling horniness these days?
Jess PMoon: And we know from the Mustache of Christmas Past that vampire hair can grow.
Nora Deirdre: Ah! People repress things for a *reason*, Jessica!
We're going to have to start a promotional drive for skipping and skimming. Miracleman and billytea will be encouraged to post directly to COMM so people won't look through Natter for their posts. I can give up reading The Quotable Buffy for Lent.
