It's simple. I slap 'em around a bit, torture 'em, make their lives hell...Sure, the nice guys'll run away,but every now and then you'll find a prince like Spike who gets off on it.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Hil in Natter, quoting Some Random Person:

I think I've found my favorite IMDB user comment ever:

The reason I like this movie is because it has a very sweet plot to it. It tells a story about a girl trying to fly birds South. Usually movies with birds in them are not scary films, but touching ones. Except for "The Birds". That isn't all that touching.

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

Allyson in Firefly:

I got as far as Simon milking Wash's engorged cock, and then I went completely blind.

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

BHP, Firefly spoilery only if you don't know a basic thing about one of its character's premises:

His sister may be insane, but she is insane in a tasteful, upper-class way. She was kidnapped by the government and tortured.

It isn't as if she's leaning up against the wall drinking Sterno and prophesying doom.

All is well that ends in pizza.

victor infante - in Natter:

Slooooow news night. Want to go home and cuddle wife and ferrets.

'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"

Somebody quoted this in Natter, and it was too impossibly far back for me to find who said it in the first place, so will the right Buffista possibly speak up to be identified with it?:

I think there could be aliens. I also would understand if they think we came in on the "special", little spaceship, and didn't want to spend much time with us.

Thanks!

Allyson, in Firefly:

Wash is so fucking sexy, he's like a shot of Jolly Rancher Fire Cinnamon, liquified, in a shot glass, on a bed of Georgia O'Keefe phallic flower print sheets.

And I'll be fucking dead before they take away my weekly Wash fix. My job blows, my love-life is stagnant, and I'm broke. All I got is my weekly Wash. It's pathetic, but it's all that's keeping me from buying a semi-automatic and slaughtering all of my creditors, one by one.

p.m. marcontell:

My mother talks through movies. I told her to shut up about once every five minutes during Men With Brooms. I note that my sister is also guilty, although at least she talks about the movie, and not about the things the movie reminds me about. Mostly she was snerking that Cutter the Elder reminded her of Dad.

Sigh.

It's sad, when you realize that Those People? Your relatives.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

mikal - There hasn't been a demographic aimed at my group since Lawrence Welk and Father Knows Best. And I sent a postcard to coca cola and got NOTHING! but a polite form letter. Soooooo ... when I re-send .... I will definitely change my identity credentials, earning and spending history and tendencies and will increase the size of my family.

Allyson - You will reproduce for Coca Cola? You have transcended the meaning of "consumer confidence."

Allyson in Firefly:

You and I had more chemistry than Inara and Mal. The wilting parsley in my fridge has more chemistry with the empty bottle of barbecue sauce.

The stale box of Kashi (how does one know when it's stale?) has more chemistry with the can of rock solid coconut macaroons atop my fridge.

I really need to go grocery shopping.
