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

This was a test. It was only a test. If it had been a real possible-escape situation, the wrench on the nautical map would not have been made out of foam rubber.

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

OK, I respect the cervix, props to the cervix, word, yo... but couldn't it have a little flap or maybe a condenser of some sort?

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
The delectable Billytea, snarking in Beaurocracy:
Fraught. I should definitely be putting that into a sentence about now, but again with the sleep deprivation. Still, fraught. Oh, and Phwooaargh.

That sounded like a Joss from the old PB days.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
Terry Pratchett says that three exclamation points in dialogue is the hallmark of the deranged character.
And that five or more is the mark of a truly insane person.
That, and anyone who actually writes maniacal laughter.
MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA!!!!!

Michigan would have ethnic diversity... if you kind of picked it up and shook it real fast and then set it down! It's like an ethnic snowglobe!

If I only had a brain...
Somebody needs to fill in the first two attributions on this one:
meara: They called a bomb threat in over a week in advance??? That's very strange....
amych: Calling in the threat was on their to-do list and they didn't want to forget in the mad rush of actually planting the bomb?
Jacqueline: Okay, obviously that’s not funny at all, except for being fucking hysterical. God knows that if I were a mad bomber, I’d have to do it that way. Then they’d probably find my bomb, inert and un-detonated, with the wrong size batteries crammed into it wrong way round and a Post-It stuck to the top saying "1. Call in threat. 2. Wash capoeira pants. 3. CAT FOOD!!!!"

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

The second (to-do list) was me. I'm not sure who the first one was.
