shrift in Firefly...
It is a truth universally acknowledged that Buffistas are incapable of taking the piss.
We die horribly and painfully, you go to hell and I spend eternity in the arms of baby Jesus.

This thread is for Buffista quotage. Posts that are profound, witty, or otherwise deserving of immortality go here. This is also Shrift's source for the BRQG, so be aware that if your words end up here, they'll also end up there. Finally, please note which thread spawned the quotage and please white-out anything that might be spoilery to Un-Americans.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Lizard, I'm glad you grabbed that Calli quote. I was going to bring it over but got distracted by a shiny object lying on the floor.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
(PS: concerning post 1934, I believe the first paragraph attributed to me was a quote from Deena.)

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
(but billytea, if we let it stand as yours, then no one has to realize that I got utterly lost in the conversation and went beyond armageddon after you'd already said that POST-armageddon didn't actually enter into what you were trying to say.)

If I only had a brain...
Shrift: And here's where I begin to realize my fascination with villains may have begun at a tender age when I figured out their action figures came with cooler toys...

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Bureaucracy:
PaulJ: Crap. I'll be in my corner sulking.
Aimee: why crap?
PaulJ: Because I just posted a completely RTFM question, while having the particular M in question (the how-to page) right in front of me.
If we had micropayments for bandwidth, I'd be about 0.005 $ poorer right now.
Heh. And FWIW, Paul, after I think an entire year as a Buffista, I finally got round to asking why "Buffista" and not "Buffian" or something. And everyone was like, Sweetie, I hate to break it to you. RTFM. So, yeah. Happens to us all.

When we pedant, we do it all the way, and in groups. It's like we're baby Fowler's monkeys!

I am the Queen of Lazy-Ass Lazy Asses today. All bow before me. Or whatever, it's not like I can be bothered to do anything about it, anyway.
Burrell, my queen.

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket
Elena:
There are different levels of enjoyment. Some people watch, say, Baywatch, for the scantily-clad large-breasted women; others for the juxtaposition of man fighting nature and thus learning an important lesson about his inner being. Wait, did I say juxtaposition? I meant scantily-clad large-breasted men. So, you see, something for everyone.
