You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Shawn, being persuasive, in Natter:

Santa is old and white. His employees are all male, and his wife stays at home. He retains a ridiculous amount of his own holdings to distribute as he wishes. His existence depends on a magical and overly optimistic notion of the laws of physics and private giving. His charity to the young of the world mostly depends on whether or not they are Christian, and if the rest of the year they are good or bad people. Despite the myth that Santa treats everyone equally, empirically we all know that the richest kids fare the best with Santa.

Santa is Republican.

I believe that we will take the non-sinking sheep of love and will go far away to the ocean...

Laura, in Buffy (not spoily)

I am completely comfortable with the level of obsession that allows me to watch and post tonight despite having already watched the episode twice yesterday.

My children know that life is more pleasant if mom is not disturbed during Buffy. They will be home from soccer practice about 8:30 and will quietly bathe and change for bed. Or else.

'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"

Katie M:

I'm told that I discovered Santa was a fake indepently at a young age - I don't remember this, but I don't ever remember believing in Santa so it must be so - by asking the mall Santa for a gift that I didn't ask my parents for and waiting to see if the gift that I only asked the dressed-up Santa for appeared. Which it did not.

You'd think I'd've made a good research scientist, but I grew up and discovered it annoyed me.

love's a dream you enter though I shake and shake and shake you

Dana:

Man, this is bigger than a Fortress. This is a whole Metropolis of Denial, patrolled by the Superman of LA LA LA.

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

Madrigal:

There's vegan jerky in the US. I don't think it's meant for eating so much as using an excuse to practice expressions of disbelief.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Ita, in Natter:

when you watch a guy configure Windows Explorer just like you do, it's hard not to be a little turned on.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Caroma, In Firefly:

I will NOT watch the Buffy until I balance my checkbook. I will NOT watch the Buffy until I balance my checkbook. I will NOT watch...

Aw, screw it. See ya in an hour.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

In Natter:

Santa is Republican.

CASHMERE: I'm going to make sure my kids don't believe in them, either.

No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti

I didn't realize when I read this thread that erikaj's

It's crap, but it lasts forever. It's the American way.

was in reference to Twinkies until I ran across it in Natter. Then there was this from billytea:

I do so love that the only consumer products not designed these days to need replacing just after the warranty expires are the foodstuffs.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Jen in Buffy 2 (spoilery):

I'm having the same problem that Vezzini thought Westley would have during the iocane powder goblet incident. I want to believe that suggesting Giles is dead/FE-controlled is obvious enough to be a mislead, but then I think ME knows that I would think that it's a mislead and make it not a mislead... Lather, rinse, repeat.
