"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Narrator in Buffy 3:

I suspect the author of the latest ad thinks him/herself quite the wit, but he/she is only half-right.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

Sean K in Buffy: Spoilage Lite:

Of course, after all these years, I am now of the opinion that Joss could create a show staring a lump of congealed soup and a large mossy rock, and it would still be one of the best shows on television.

Natter 9:

Matt the Bruins fan: I have to face the fact that posting here is literally an addiction now... having a TV show get pre-empted or a friend not call on a given day does NOT make me want to curl up under a blanket for 14 hours straight. (OK, so rainy chilly weather may have contributed slightly...)

thessaly: I remember seeing a quote ages ago (paraphrasing from memory), "If addiction is measured by how many times an animal will push a bar to its own detriment, readnews is the most addictive substance on earth"

I guess now we should substitute 'push a mouse button' and (newsgroup of choice).

Suddenly, I feel old. :)

When I was a young 'net user we didn't have fancy GUI interfaces or HTML- just green or yeller' text on a monochrome screen - AND WE LIKED IT THAT WAY! We had to FTP uphill both ways and store files on a cassette drive at 300 baud that sounded like a cat barfing and half the time it wouldn't even CONNECT! But we were greatful, not like kids are these days...

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Jesse, in Bureaucracy:

The how we decide what to discuss discussion and decision comes next, I think.

Christ, I can't believe I just typed that.

'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"

In the Movies Thread:

Sean K:

Plus, Mad Max has a non-blue Zhaan overflowing with long, crimped, blonde locks.

(Which reminds me, how did that woman get her hair crimped in a post- apocalyptic Australia?)

DavidS:

Solar powered waffle iron.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Cindy on Buffy, in, well, Buffy (not even really a spoiler but whitefonted):

Motivational speaking isn't her gift; death is her gift.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

erinaceous in Natter; formatting dedicated to the COMM movement. You know who you are.

Me:

Hey! It's our tenth anniversary this year!
DH:
What's ten again?
Me:
I don't know.
DH:
I think it's cock. I think you're going to like it, but I'm really not looking forward to it. Oh, and I already got your gift.

At the rate I'm using the computer, I'm afraid it's going to Unionize. "Hey hey, Ho Ho! 100110!"

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Shira in Natter:

Today, in Asian Studies, we were discussing what is sacred, and someone said, "Ooooh, to Shira, it's the ONE RING." And they all made fun of me. BUT YOU KNOW WHAT? I'm better than them! Because I HAVE the One Ring, and they don't.

Shawn, being totally spoilery in Angel, stating her extreme denial of the deadness of Lilah :

She's pining. I mean, it's a nearly-decapitated form of pining, but still.
