I'm not even going to try contextualizing this:
Steph: How does one shuck a clam?
Aimee:Pry the shell open and yank out the meat.
ita:"Shuck a clam", Aimée, not "seduce a geek".
Well, look who just popped open a fresh can of venom.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

A fellow makes himself conspicuous when he throws soft-boiled eggs at the electric fan.
Phill, in Natter 7:
The civilized way to shuck a clam is to enter into a psychic duel with the tawny mollusk on the seventh plain of dremes. You must confront the clam with his greatest terror and while it gazes into the abyss of its own slimy mortality, hit it with a hammer while giggling.

Andre Braugher is so intense he makes staring directly into the sun seem tame and pale in comparison.

First time posting in COMM. Hope I do this right.

Epic Tangent: You can tell by the good sense.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Theodosia:
My mother wasn't much for casseroles. We were a Kraft Macaroni & Cheese family, and she usually managed to make it so that half the noodles were bare and the other half were encrusted with orange mix. This woman was a full-time housewife, too... just not a very good one. She didn't even have the excuse of a secret drinking problem or anything.

Heh. Bill Clinton's church was next door to my apartment. Walking by on a Sunday morning, you'd think it was Our Lady of Blessed Law Enforcement, from all the unmarkeds and shaded-glass SUVs parked outside.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Phill, maintaining the world's greatest post-to-COMM ratio:
Me? Dis ass? Never, sir. Why the very idea...pish twaddle, sir. I'm sure your wife's ass is so perfectly round that one could use it to calibrate radio telescopes. It's sooo high, haughty and proud, it would be cast in the starring role in the sistah SoulJah biopic. This ass is soooo sublime that in a recent episode of "In Search Of...", Leonard Nemoy posited that it was the work of ancient astronaughts.

Meara-I'm a packrat, it had to be somewhere...)
billytea- Sure, but if this were true, your first thought would always have to be "I wonder if I tucked into one of my cheeks?"
Me in COMM- Hee-2000 bay-bee!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Erinaceous: I think being a hooker would be like having a series of really excruciatingly bad blind dates that HAD to end in sex.

If I had a way to get an internet connection in the hospital, I'd be posting during labor... I don't think they'd stop me. Laboring women are scary.
