Kat, in Buffy:

when Joyce was talking to Buffy, she says something about The Evil is eveywhere. I had a flash to those old Visa or MC commercials:

The Evil. It's everywhere you want to be.

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

From Buffy (edit: Previously, and not spoilery), I don't think it's spoilery cuz I don't even remember to what Nou was originally referring :

Noumenon:

Right, he's like the one who always opposes the cocky newcomer for breaking apart the "family," and ultimately his loyalty results in him being turned into a demonoid supersoldier who has to be killed by another member of the band? Seen that one a hundred times.
meara:
Yeah, I hate it when that happens. Damn band camp politics.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

(definitely not spoilery, because it was in Previously, not Buffy)

That would explain my confusion.

It's re: Forrest's appearance in "Drumline". :) I was explaining his role:

then he's the anti-new-kid, the sectionleader who only wants what's best...blah blah you know the story.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

Betsy, in Firefly t nonspoilery :

I pretty much file humanity under "Annoying and occasionally dangerous."

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

Hec, in Natter. Why? Because it's All About Emmett.

Emmett: "Hey, this package says 'David' on it."
Me: "Yeah, it's for me from my friend Steph."
Emmett: "If it has cookies in it will you share?"
Me: "Sure, but not every package has cookies in it."
Emmett: "Who would send a package that didn't have cookies in it?"

Tom Scola also got to hear Emmett's impassioned defense of the Malfoys ("They're not evil! They're just mean!") and a dissertation on how to touch your own brain and the pleasures that may afford. Then he pumped us for details about TTT in great detail. ("Tell me all the big monsters.")

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

Buffy, non-spoilery, and I'm in there but I'm straight line girl. Not to be confused with straight girl. Er. More to the point:

Jen, I think: Spike is William with 100 years of carnage under his belt.

Me: They're not wholly separate beings, and they're very closely entwined, but they are not equal. Spike evolved from William. Spike is related to William, but William is not related to Spike.

BHP: Yes, but are their sides proportional and their angles equal, adding up to 180 degrees?

Daniel: "I am he is you are he is you are me and we are all together." -The Beatles.

BHP: "They all returned from him to you though they were mine before." -Lewis Carroll.

Elena, Sang Sacre:

When I was six, Santa gifted me with a Fuzzy Pumper Barber Shop. You would fill these little, hollow people with Playdoh, sit them in a barber chair, and turn a crank that forced a plastic cylinder up their asses. This caused the Playdoh to rupture like little spaghetti snakes through the follicles drilled into their heads and gave them 'hair' which you would then cut and/or style as you fancied. Looking back, I can see that it's just a massive metaphor for sexual awakening; but at the time I just liked Playdoh, you know?
