Thanks, DX. I do seem to suck at the spelling lately.

This thread is for Buffista quotage. Posts that are profound, witty, or otherwise deserving of immortality go here.

Finally, please note which thread spawned the quotage and please white-out anything that might be spoilery to Un-Americans.
wolfram in Firefly (non-spoilery for anything but scheduling)
Secret message to FBC network executives:
its Firefly can How to sense fucking order any fucking out when you make expect of?
[I left out the translation just to be contrary.]
Allyson channeling Dr. Seuss to describe the allure (or lack thereof) or TTT:
I don't get it. I don't get the Lord of the Rings Thing. I don't get it in the thread, I don't get it painted red. I don't get it in the book, I don't get it when I cook. I don't get the one true ring, I don't get the TTT Thing.
In Bureaucracy, a beutiful segue (and let me point out that the second poster did indeed quote the first):
Allyson: Then can we have a thread where we talk about anything that doesn't include movies about girly looking man-trolls with hairy feet?
Darrien: Did you guys have a thread when DB did that movie, Valentine?
Rebecca Lizard, in LOTR, on her family cinematic experience:
My mother: What was that, the Dobby one?
Me: Gollum?
My mother: Yeah. He was cute. Can we get one? Only they seem sort of treacherous, but so are the guinea pigs, so we're used to that.
John H., clarifying The Two Towers;
in case you're confused:
- There's just one Gollum. Really.
- Faramir and Boromir, despite being brothers, were separated at birth, and went to live in Yorkshireador and Australiador, so that's why they talk so differently.
- The guy on the winged lamprey of doom isn't that smart. He's all "well, hobbit with a ring, yeah, but what are the chances that was the Hobbit with the ring? I won't mention it to Sauron".
- Aragorn only kissed his horse because he thought it was Arwen. Honestly.
Hope this helps.
Oh, just COMM the whole damned post.

From Bureaucracy:
Trudy Booth: I'd imagine we could walk the line between "Henry Kissinger is a war criminal" and "YOU are a war criminal".
billytea Hmmm. If Henry Kissinger himself starts posting on these boards, that could leave us in a quandary.

This is more amusing now than it was before...

My devotion to Legolas makes Sam look like a philanderer with intimacy issues.
Back the hell up off the elf, miss.
