(Why did I think Java was a man when I wrote that? I knew she wasn't and yet, for that brief moment...I'm insane.)

erikaj in Literary, re James Joyce:
I've not read him in any knowledgeable way, Connie. Cried through "portrait of the Artist" in school and was like "Words! Pretty!" with Ulysses. It's like how I know classical music from Bugs Bunny cartoons.
shrift, in Firefly after the infamous JM confusion when it was pointed out to Wolfram that things can't be changed after they are COMMed:

custard tart with sour cherries
Jesse:
Oh my holy god YUM.

Bitches
:
Spawn1 = Nick, 17 years old and believes he owns the world and all in it. Hypnotizes most teenage girls and a few guys with his guitar playing and, ahem, singing. Favorite words - "I'm sorry! I forgot!"
Spawn2 = Kara, 16 months old and believes she owns the world, her parents, and all that she can see. Hypnotizes grandparently types with her cute smile and her new skill, teeth gnashing. Favorite words: "weawy, weawy?", "poop!", "'top it!", "yeah, yeah, yeah", "MmmmMmmm."
Spawn3 = Aidan, Due any day now and believes he owns my bladder and likes to bounce off of it regularly! Hypnotizes everyone who sees my stomach ripple when he does a perfect flip. Favorite words: "Crimeny kid, STOP that!"
Oh, those are mine.
