From the Firefly thread:
manzo:
I take it there never was an answer as to what happen to the "i" in "aluminium" as it crossed the Atlantic?
Griffyn:
That's easy, the same thing that happened to the u in humour. The colonists simply didn't take well to vowel movements.
In Bitches
ita: Speaking of coming up, you should ask sarameg about 'dillo dicks sometime
Emily: No, I'm still working on the hyena dick knowledge. I'm good for now
Calli in Bitches:
It's good to know I'm not getting too into the death and despair headspace. The funeral thought train didn't bother me that much at first -- I'm a big fan of preparation. It's the way it keeps coming back to mind that's got me feeling odd. I should really be using this valuable fantasy time to dwell on a Wes-Calli-Xander sandwich. Oh well. At least my folks know they can talk to me about it. The funeral stuff, not the other.
From Lightbulbs:
TomW: That's the problem. You let monkeys onto the ballot and suddenly everybody goes monkey-crazy!
Oh, they're so cute! Oh, they're so helpful! Oh, they're so funny!
Before you know it, the board has been renamed "Monkey", all the threads are called "Monkey", everybody has to post under Monkey-related names, like "Monkey-Luvva" and we're only allowed to discuss Mutant Enemy shows that have monkeys in them.
Well, I say that monkeys are just a bunch of poop flinging trouble makers.
amyth: Your monkey hate makes Joss cry.
Aimée:
I do have to say that my non-want to be embalmed and viewed is almost purely vanity run amok. I don't like people seeing me if I haven't showered, let alone dead. And I don't like anyone else doing my make-up.
Natter X:
NoiseDesign: So how bad do you folks think LAX is going to be tomorrow? I fly first thing and have to take a bunch of electronics with me. I'm thinking of travelling naked...less to search...
Sean K: I have frequently considered this option when travelling through LAX.
Trudy Booth: t Trudy starts hanging out at LAX
NoiseDesign: It would be fun to see the look on security's face...hell...last time they damn near had me strip down anyway.
Trudy Booth: Trudy sighs... the best she ever gets at LaGuardia is a quick cab
ita in Farscape:
You turn our hero and his pod!girlfriend to Nerds, I don't feel a shred of anticipation about how they might (or may not) get out of it.
Pinwiz, in Angel:
Dear WB,
I don't watch your network for hard-hitting news. I watch it for Angel and the Pretty Boys. Why did you interrupt with news that we shot off a missle? Dubya waited until after the episode to speak, so he understood the importance of Angel.
Couldn't you have sent an image of the Frog across the bottom of the screen singing:
Hello my baby,
Hello my darling,
Turn it to CNN...
Seriously.
Sincerely,
Pinwiz.
Sue, in Spoilers, but not spoilery:
Spike now has the soul of the Master Thespian.
Nutty:
You know, when I was in the third grade, I was jealous of the girl who skipped a grade to fourth. But now I think back about it, I'm like, HELLO, grade school is not a race. I was habitually the youngest in my class (September cutoff) and pretty small, until puberty. And really, did I need to be more of a know-it-all egomaniac than I already was?
Sometimes I despair that it's my brain that leads the rest of me around.
