'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Noumenon, talking about a non-spoilery discusssion in Angel:

You might want to skip from Perkins "Angel 2: No Time for Losers" Feb 16, 2003 3:10:43 pm EST where Perkins innocently asked if it was correct to say "Wes's lizard brain" or "Wes' lizard brain," on through a discussion of "Zed" vs "Zee" in the alphabet song, a discussion of ellipses and good grammar, through the final post about em and en dashes at Rebecca Lizard "Angel 2: No Time for Losers" Feb 17, 2003 1:20:46 am EST, about three hundred posts later. And the really amazing thing is that we never got sidetracked onto the puns of punctuation, in all that extended period. I think the abstruse points of style put our brains into a comma.

From Bitches:

Hecubus:

Still grumpy about the off hours coup that brought on this thread title. (Sorry, Connie)

connie neil:

But--but--something needed to be DONE! Deadlines approached, the constituency drifted in a state of "I dunno, what do you want? I dunno." It was a time for someone to stand up, take a stand, and say "This! This is what we shall do! Who's with me?" And I was that Bitch. I regret there is but one thread I can name for my Buffistas.

I really needed a sign that said "I'm not inarticulate, just shy and frightened. Really."

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

I NEED that sign.

Madrigal in Angel:

Zed's not science. Science is saying "crooshable" instead of "croo-sibble" unless referring to the play.

and later, a bit spoilerly:

Eh, we're a grammatically obsessed people. We'd consider blotting out the sun to the lesser evil if BRDS's spell misused colons and semicolons.

CaBil: Is your dada strong today, or are you talking about birds?
