Connie N: In the old, old days, emendatons and margin jottings were considered a standard practice.
BHP: And book collectors get really excited by, say, Swedenborg's copy of the Bible with "As if!" "No way!" written in the margins.

there is something to be said for the lyric and imperial attitude / believe that everything is for you until you discover that you are for it

I like the image of the stake dropping to the ground as the final shot.
amych:
Argh! No! Anything but that -- not that it isn't a lovely image. It's just that I haven't yet gotten over the fact that I got a flat tire the other day by running over a piece of wood, of all things. Made no sense to me at all, until I realized that my tire had been staked. I'm surprised the whole car didn't instantly turn to dust.

BHP quoting billytea: Bec's bought up ten tins of tuna
BHP: What? No behavioral or evolutionary news on the mating patterns of tuna in cans?
I'm disappointed.
billytea: Gosh. Imagine my chagrin. Bear in mind that canning and selling ichtheous mating activity has so far proven to be a marketing flop. ("Sealed for their privacy")

There are vampire tires?
There are vampire cars, tires, major household appliances, and sadly, even houses. They all suck.

I just walked past building security. They had a sign saying "You must surrender your precious badge" and I immediately grabbed it and hunched over, saying "My preciousss! Mine!"
I was quite disappointed to find the "c" was actually a "v".

Mostly, advertisers like insecure people. Reality Shows are populated almost exclusively with insecure people, in order to draw insecure viewers. Why? Because it's easier to convince insecure people that they smell bad.

Scrappy and PMM in Angel. Not really spoilery- just a whiff of spoiler on the air -but I'm whiting out just in case.
Scrappy: If Fred had been dating Riley, she would have said "looks like she likes her products Made in America."
PMM: Of Pure Potato Product!

Fat does funny things. My father has this random bump on his forehead that's just a little lump of fat. Who knows why?
msbelle:
cause your dad has a fat forehead. has he tried Atkins?
Jesse:
He does not! The rest of him is fat, but his forehead is FINE. Except for the one lump. (Note that by FINE I mean A-OK, not like FOINE.)
