I edited #2058 because ita's tag was showing up as 3pt font on my machine. Yes, I am drunk with the power.

HAH! I love Angus' post. Awww.
Kat, in Natter:
Most verbs are these cute little bi-trannie babies, meaning they can either be intransitive or transitive depending on how it's used. A very few verbs are like Hard Core Gay boys
billytea in Natter, on temperatures conversions:
There is a chance I'm overthinking this. It keeps my brain warm.
Nilly beat me to it by mere minutes, but I'll give it a little bit more contextually:
Temp here is actually 15F, but the wind chill gets it down to -1 (wind's currently at 21mph).
And now I think of it, when I update the website to put the temp in Celsius, I think it should also change the wind speed into kph. I used to appreciate the conversion facility, but now it just feels like they're doing so grudgingly.

Nutty in Dude, which is dragon's hoard of COMMability:
Middle-earthlings: Helping Friends And Harming Enemies Since The First Age!
Edit: it occurs to me that my sense of humour may be out of balance today, as nearly everything seems to be funny. I'm doing my best to make value judgements, but I may regret them tomorrow.
FWIW, and for the record, I didn't invent that phrase. It was originally (to my knowledge) used for Classics Department T-shirts at my alma mater [i.e., not with Middle-earth, and since 1871, not the First Age], because there was some ancient Greek short-version philosophy about "help your friend and harm your enemies". As philosophies go, I think it's an efficient one, although perhaps not so good with the ambiguous people.
Intresting to know- thanks for telling me. At the moment, though, I still think it's pretty funny. And the ancient Greek connection only improves it. YsenseofhumourMV.
MM in Leatherpants (so to speak) - spoilery and whitefonted:
But I loved that Fred and Wesley only managed to open a portal that led to behind them. How embarrassing could that've been?
Angel: We did it! He's gone! Yea us!
BRS: Ahem.
Fred: Oh, crap. Forgot to carry pi.
Aimee in Natter:
I am grumpy! I shall eat a vegetarian burrito and buy pants!
Phill in NAFDA (probably not spoilery, but fonted just in case):
It's like Willow all of a sudden joins a wise-cracking, hell bent for leather rifle company in double-you double-you eye eye. Watch Willow take on those Axis rats along with Ox, Pretty-Boy, The Professor, and all those other lovable mugs you find so easy to love. Willow Rosenberg in "Hell is for Wiccans"
