Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

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

John: I figure the Philipina housemaids will get down to stuff like "Boogie Oogie Oogie" by A Taste Of Honey with nostalgic glee, but my friends will get down ironically to the same songs.

Betsy: This I have to see. What, they're waving finger quotes as they boogie?

--------------------

John: This is reminding me of the time I was walking through the Queen Victoria Building with my old friend Jennifer, (the day we got drunk at lunchtime and went around to the Information Desks of all the big department stores and asked them "What's the capital of Brazil?") and I asked her "You know how people say, in dance songs 'wave your hands in the air like you just don't care'? How is that exactly? Could you do it for me, once with caring and once without?".

And she did. And it made sense to me. But it frightened some German tourists.

Kat: Classic Southern California Holiday image:

I drove back from the Christmas tree lot, with the top of the red Miata down. The tree was strapped into (with the seat belt!) the passenger seat.

connie neil:

I have no problem with Bill Gates reading my smut. Maybe he'll get some fashion tips.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Betsy in Firefly (probably general enough not to be a spoiler, but why take chances?):

I'm afraid I can never look at Inara greeting a client without thinking "Hah!You fool! You may think you get nookie, but actually you have to suffer through Celestial Seasonings! Next time, pick a less full-service provider!"

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Also Betsy in Firefly:

So when do we start the Zoe's Bitch thread? Because I would totally tear the pages out of a book at her command.

I say, Tyler, you're thinking of vampires.

brenda m, in Firefly:

Ok, the Truth ads are annoying, but at least they're not just making stuff up out of the clear blue sky like the weed people.

There's a message in that somewhere.

'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"

Susan W in Firefly (very mildly spoilery):

Sometimes I think about a mercenary lying in his bunk...and then I go lie in my bunk myself.

'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"

Kat:

And honestly, I really don't give a shit so I'm confused as to why I am even arguing except that you must be hitting my Must Have the Last Word button. So I'll shut up now.

Elena, on Firefly (again):

I love this show so much. I want to feed it soup, give it a nice warm bath and then take it to my bunk and rub it for a while.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Elena: Though if your folks are like mine they'll just say that they don't want anything. And someday that's what you'll get. Bastards.
