If I only had a brain...

billytea: I live like I type: fast, with a lot of mistakes. I feel the loss of motor function adds character, and anyway I want to build my alibi for when I start accidentally whacking people who piss me off upside the head.

This is particularly funny if you're an ex-smoker. In F2F planning:

Kristen: I get all out of balance if I have a drink in one hand and I don't have a cigarette in the other.

Aimée: Me, too. Been known to fall over and spill my drink.

Ple: The cure for that? Two drinks.

Nobody

Typo Boy, in Buffy--

I think everyone deserves a chance for redemption. Of course for some, the chance should be in a small steel cage inhabited only by them, and hundreds of half-starved crazed weasels.

'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"

Holli, slightly spoilery from Buffy:

I still laughed at "Episode One bored," though, because I am the very most of geek. In a healthy, able-to-separate-fiction-from-reality way.

ita explains it all to you (Farscape, wardrobe-related)

Steph: So why, at the end of the ep, was John wearing a leather duster? It just struck me on re-watch.

ita: Because he found it lying by the stairs in this house on Revello?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Sumi: So why, at the end of the ep, was John wearing a leather duster? It just struck me on re-watch.

That was me, I think.

Help, who said this:

I also used to look at Thoroughbreds on TV and think, For crying out loud, I'm looking at supermodels on four legs! Where are all the dependable, calm, steady sidekick-type horses??

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Nutty, I think.

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:

Or [Connor's] the Beast prophesied in Revelation. (Which Revelation? Pick one. The Revelation of Colonel Sanders.) He could perfectly well be there to bring on the End Times.

PMM:

Now I'm picturing Connor covered in Seekrit Herbs N' Spice Girls.

Thank you very much.

If I only had a brain...

The Buffistas, proving again that childhood traumas explain everything: (Angel, but spoilery for Buffy)

Madrigal: I see tptb as a sort of parent in the front seat of the car, and the First Evil is one of the kids in the back seat. They're going to allow for some squabbling, various forces of good whining about how the forces of evil are breathing on them, etc. But if one side is doing too much damage, or beating up too much on another, they'll stop the car and try to even it out a bit.

Deena: Goodness. Madrigal just took me back to childhood. Now I know - FE is based on my older brother!

Narrator: So is the First Evil acting up because it needs to go to the bathroom?

Kat: Or because the First Good, if there is such a thing, keeps trying to creep across the invisible line dividing the back seat.
