In Bitches --
Betsy: Full frontal nudity might actually have redeemed Star Wars Episode I.
"Dude, you call THAT a lightsaber? Check out THIS!"
ita: Look! Itsa penisa!
Now, this would be the perfect time for a swear word.

Hec:
It's just like John Donne, really. He started by writing poems about sex that were about God. Then he wrote poems about God that were about sex. Just insert "throbbing cock" every time Prince refers to his "lord and savior" and all the songs work exactly the same.

Betsy, the "Unknown Buffista" from post #1845 is Calli.
Jesse in Natter:
There, see?! Forget about the Buffista group marriage -- it's all about the Buffista family trade-off.
Teppy in Natter (yup, I'm pretending I'm catching up):
And I must be right, because of all the capital letters I used.

A couple of gems from 'Dude':
connie neil: I always giggle a little at the name Shadowfax.
Fay: I find myself, now, thinking it's the sort of office equipment they have in Mordor. And that Voldemort would like to have, if only he were badass enough.
~~~~~
And Fay again, on how they might shoot a scene from the books:
Fay: it's packed with angsty nekkid Frodo. Do you suppose we'll actually get angsty nekkid Elijah?
The volume of fic is going to be just huger than huge. Oliphantine.

Anybody got any spare initiative laying around? Maybe some gumption? Willpower?

I might be able to do gumption. I think we still have a little left in the tub under the sink.

MechaKrelboyne, from Dude:
If you know anyone who's having Hobbit Identification problems (But not the Kind where they're checking their own feet, which I can't help with), then here's how.
If the hobbit you're looking at onscreen at any given moment has figured out what's going on around them, it's more likely than not Frodo.
If the hobbit is figuring out what's going on this very second as you watch, you're looking at Merry.
If you're looking at a clueless hobbit, you're looking at Pippen.
If he's carrying pots, he's Sam.

amych in Natter:
I once got a pledge form from my college's alumni association saying that I'd promised them $0.00 (which, in fact, I had). I returned it to them, after checking the box that said "My employer will match my contribution".

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Matt the Bruins Fan in Previously:
Maybe previously insecurities were mitigated by (Angel) thinking "I could do that (fight) as well as she (Buffy) does if proper grooming without use of mirrors didn't eat up so much of my time"?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
In Buffy (nonspoilery for this season):
Betsy: But, yet again, what's his [Spike's] selfish interest in helping Dawn resurrect her mother? He knows it's a bad idea, he knows Buffy will hate it, but he helps Dawn anyway?
Justkim: With any luck Dawn will spout non-event-specific praise about him to Buffy, who will then fall madly in love with him for being so caring and supportive of her little sister.
Dana: And not mind that he helped bring back her mother as a shuffling zombie? I know he's not good at long-term thinking, but...
