To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Oh, and Thessaly, darling? The "Namaste, Motherfucker" shirts are a wonderful idea!!!

Nobody

thessaly, my only regret is that my oldest son can read. Otherwise, I'd never wear anything else.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

connie in Angel, unspoilery:

Zombies can have layers. Generally peeling off, but hey, layers.

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

Nutty:

I suspect Mortensen has it in his contract that he only has to do minimal publicity.

Jess PMoon:

Either that or they can tell he scares people.

Emily: This is why I only pay attention to the chorus. Like Norah Jones, "Don't know why, I didn't..." something. This way I get to speculate about what it is she didn't do, and why not. Is it a phobia? Or a deep-seated aversion to deep-sea fishing? Does she have a moral objection to painting?

Natter 9:

Emily: Hey, everybody? Your body is a wonderland. My mind won't shut up about it, so it must be true. A wonderland, la la la la. Your body is a wonderland.

billytea: I like to think of mine as a Wet 'n' Wild theme park. Of course, most other people see it more as a slightly decrepit rotunda.

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

John, in Natter:

I decided not long ago that I'm an Inspectionist.

I think that not only do we need more weapons inspectors in Iraq, and to give them more time, but we need to just keep on inspecting them and inspecting them and flooding them with bureacracy and, if necessary, bore Saddam Hussein into submission.

I think that before we get to a war, we should be prepared to assign one inspector to every Iraqi citizen.

It'd be like "Thursday, 8 PM. Baghdad. Mahmoud Abdul Karim goes to 7-11 and buys a six-pack of Pepsi. Diet this time. Maybe his wife's been giving him a hard time about his weight again. Must check with her personal Inspector."

there is something to be said for the lyric and imperial attitude / believe that everything is for you until you discover that you are for it

Katerina Bee: I have days when I'd like to have the power to say, "YOU!! Out of the gene pool!!"

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

John in Bureacracy, stripped of all context (just the way we like him):

I can hardly believe I'm writing this, but we may have to convince people how important it is to show up and vote "I don't care".

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Nutty in Literary:

At one point, I wrote a Shakespeare paper -- I don't even remember the topic -- into which I larded as many board game names as I could. Boggle, Sorry and Scrabble are pretty easy, and I think Monopoly too, but Parcheesi? Fuhgedaboudit.
