Aww.
Damn.
Wash: Psychic, though? That sounds like something out of science fiction. Zoe: We live in a space ship, dear. Wash: So?

Gus, late night Sunday in Natter 9:
Uh,oh. Inebriated poster with a wireless laptop. I am in a bar right now and it is fucking fabulous. (Y Fabulous MV. Radically.)
Have been reading COFF aloud to fellow sots. It’s a hit. I’m a hit. I could get laid. Yay, Buffistas!
Later:
For the record: Six slurring sots have just sung (bellowed) Daniel's Freedom Fries song in a crowded bar. And it was fucking great.
Uh, it sounded like The Philosopher's Song of Monty Python fame. Sorta. Mostly. One of the lady sots can actually sing. Lady sots did the alternate lines. Like this ...
Bellowing male sots: OH, I went to buy some freedom toast Actually singing lady sots: and when I got there they had none,
...so on.
still later:
... some nonsense about the bar closing. Fascists. Signing off. Keep your virtual fingers crossed on the outcome, Buffistas... {smoochies}
and, the morning after:
A large colony of muskrats have nested in my mouth during the night. Somewhere, someone is abusing a symphonic tympani.
Learn by my example, Buffistas. Alcohol is not your friend.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
In Natter:
Jesse: Hello, pot? This is the kettle. YOU"RE BLACK.
ita: It's not black. It's Houseware-American.

From Angel (non-spoilery), Hayden speaks for the y-chromosomed portion of the board membership:
lyra Jane - I mean, you can't die instantly from a punctured testicle, can you?
Hayden - A guy would never ask this question.
Trudy - Did you know a penis can get broken?
Hayden - I'm sorry. I can't read the screen with my hands over my eyes like this.
(Ed. note: I know there was more, but I'd rather not think about it)

'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"
Hil R.:
OK, somewhat amused, but not really surprised, at the map leaving off Australia. I'll probably be ranty about it later, but I've ranted a lot to people today and I'm kind of off the rantyness for now.

Madrigal's suggested ending for Buffy:
Really, instead of staking, I'd like it if the ending mirrored "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" by having Spike track down everyone who's posted online and either slapping them around or shagging them or both.

Nutty, in Natter, trying to elucidate a series of puns about Poles:
For the record, "a ten-foot pole" is punny because "Pole" is an old-fashioned way of saying person-from-Poland. And there's this whole part where "pole" or "tent-pole" is a euphemism for penis, so a ten foot pole can be construed as a gigantically priapic Polish guy. And then there's this other part where "I wouldn't touch him with a 10-foot pole" is replied to with "How about a 6-foot Swiss?" and then it gets very silly and/or into cheese jokes, and then the conversation devolves into giggling.
And you know what? Jokes are less funny when you are explaining them.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Gus in Natter - read previous COMM for context.
Getting through the workday today was an act of Will. Around noon, the hangover became such a real, physical presence in my life that I named it George.Please, George, I begged. Let me get through this next meeting. You can go back to doing that dizzy-thing afterward, if you must. But, I really need to get through the presentation and Q&A, first. Ominous silence.

And more Gus--
Apparently, 'COFF' is the proper spelling of 'COMM', if you are transcribing the language 'Drunk.'

Aimee in Beep Me - on her job search...
Just heard from my rep from the first interview. They loved me, they want me back tomorrow and when James (my rep) told them about the offer, they said "Oh. We can MUCH better than that."
So, I'm conflicted. But happy. More than one person hasn't been this interested in me since my boobs grew big in 10th grade!
