He's called "Cornelius" and is known, apparently, as "the Japanese Beck".
He's a very well known musician among the stateside indie rock circles.
If you want me to leave, you can put your hands on my hot, tight little body and make me.

Narrator in Angel: Spoilage lite. No spoilers, just a comment on the WB's hatred for it's own shows and unrequited lust for awards.
I think theWB execs sit home on award nights in their formalwear and eat ice cream right out of the container.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
He's called "Cornelius" and is known, apparently, as "the Japanese Beck".
He's a very well known musician among the stateside indie rock circles.
Including the circle of me, although I've never seen him perform. "The Japanese Beck", though? I find that vaguely insulting. I've nothing against Beck, but to me, Cornelius is... Cornelius.
Back to the topic -- Scrappy giving an example of an appropriate use of "insent."
BUFFISTA A: Hey, Buffista B, I hear you know a lot about Sumerian Fertility chants and also the proper way to use a fish fork. Can I ask you some questions for a Smallville/SpongeBob Regency fic I'm working on?
BUFFISTA B: Sure.
BUFFISTA A: Insent.

I say, Tyler, you're thinking of vampires.
(Where does "insent" come from?)

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket
(A pseudo-past-participle of "send in", is my thought.)

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
First use of insent I ever saw was on Tabletalk, along with "backsent".
Probably way earlier, though.
(carry on)

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

Okay. I am NOT a big girly-girl. Blood, guts, gore -- do not bother me. Puke, belches, farts -- not a problem.
But I just went to get a glass of milk, and while I was pouring it, a BIG NASTY ROACH -- bigger than my big toe -- came calmly strolling into the kitchen FROM MY BEDROOM!!!!!!!
Granted, it was moving pretty slow, like it was old or drunk or sleepy.
And I yelled an outraged "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!", which made it turn back for my bedroom (suspecting that he was about to be dispatched to Roach Valhalla). I had no shoes or socks on, so I ran for a pair of shoes and a roll of paper towels.
I smooshed him as he tried to hide behind my clothes hamper.
But he came OUT OF MY BEDROOM!!!!!
BIGGER THAN MY BIG TOE!!!!!
A. ROACH.
How long was in in there?? Did he and his roach buddies walk all over me while I slept?
I am so grossed out I actually feel nauseated.
I don't want to sleep in my bedroom.

Allyson:
I can't figure out why some folks think Joss is supposed to be their own personal lord and saviour, and tell them what to do, how to think, when to take a leak. He's a writer. Sheesh.
Betsy Hanes Perry:
Maybe that's why my bladder has hurt so much since December.
shrift:
So, Allyson, what you're saying is that there's currently a huge, untapped market for an item that works as the Voice of Joss? Like a Magic 8 Ball?
Magic Joss Balls!
Rabid Fan: "Dear Joss, Should we continue to send apples and blue gloves to FBC, as well as trolling Fastlane and Joe Millionaire boards and pestering the everlovingshit out of the people who used to be leading the campaign?!?!"
Magic Joss Ball: "Reply hazy, try again."
flea:
Okay, Magic Joss Balls is killing me. In a porny 12 year old way.
laurmb:
Um, well, I'm ignoring the obvious visual there. Beyond that, just wondering what else a Magic Joss Ball would say. Grr?
TonyG:
"Ask ME later?"
"Yes. And by that I mean No."
