You'd never make it. I'd rip your spine out before you got half a step. Those little legs wouldn't be much good without one of those.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

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:
I do accept bribes to correct things on the random quote generator.
Note: A good bribe will not involve pledging me your first-born child, unless your first-born child is a legal adult and pretty.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
From Natter: (I think the attributions are correct)...
John H.:
custard tart with sour cherries
Jesse:
Oh my holy god YUM.
John H.:
Oh yeah. When people eat a slice they get a faraway look on their face and you have to wave your hand in front of their eyes to get their attention.
The custard is very sweet, the cherries are very sour. Either one on their own would be almost too much, but together? It's like Joss Whedon wrote this tart...

Wolfram just wants to point out that it was Wolfram who pointed it out to Wolfram. I don't really have a point.

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
Deena's children in 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.

The headline says my President wants to gird me for war.
I don't want to be girded. Especially by a guy I'm not married to. Who probably doesn't even know my baldric size.
