Hotel slash from F2F:
amych:
The Orchid scanned the crowd of hotels; not a hot prospect in sight -- and yet -- right there, under its very balconies! How had it never noticed the Renaissance before? So strong, so manly, sweaty and hot with the bustle of convention season... but that only highlighted its many charms....
In Bitches:
Elphaba: Guess who has a brand new Honda Accord sitting in her parking place?
Betsy HP: Run out and make the bastards move it.
spoilery for angel; idle speculation about the next pregnancy.
Madrigal And with the current rates of pregnancy on this show, should we expect Gwen to give birth to a little pink toaster next season?
Jess PMoon And would the toast that came out of it have to be called the breakfast of champions?
In Bitches:
Cindy:
She's very well and she's indicating there might be life outside the internet. Sounds like a hoax to me. Does anyone actually believe that, or is that like on of those Santa Claus myths?
Jess P Moon:
There's an outside the internet?
connie neil:
Nonsense, you're all just people I've created in a virtual reality. You only think you're real. I am sorry for any crises that may have occured in your virtual--but ultimately nonexistent--lives in those moments when I have to reboot the server.
Nutty:
All of the above is why the whole world should fit between Boston and New York. If you can't get to it in 4 hours and/or on an interconnected set of train and public transity systems, why bother??
Cindy in Natter. Made me laugh.
I just got this email entitled, "Advice". I don't pass these on usually, but it made me chuckle.
1. It is important to find a man who works around the house, occasionally cooks and cleans and who has a job.
2. It is important to find a man who makes you laugh.
3. It is important to find a man who is dependable and doesn't lie.
4. It is important to find a man who's good in bed and who loves to have sex with you.
5. It is important that these four men never meet.
Hec and Aimee, in Natter:
We should have one of the actuaries post the most likely ways to die for the average Buffsita demographic
My vote goes for "TiVo falling onto head" for #1 cause.
Anne on keeping track of Bureaublahblah (© msbelle):
It's a bit like herding cats. Teleporting, time-traveling cats.

Sue:
I just can't deal with Connor's hair. When I was stranded at the bus station last Friday, there were several college-aged guys also waiting who had the same floppy hair. I wanted to go up to them and say, "In the name of Vincent Karthieser, cut your hair!"
Trudy:
Ah, first you confuse the college boys and then you POUNCE!
Sue:
It's all about the misdirection, Trudy.
Gudanov In Natter:
My most recent movie viewing was "Piglet's Big Movie". Which was okay, but I thought Tigger was just sort of mailing it in. Eeorye brought it strong though, best performance since 'Dude Where's my Tail'.
In BBaBB, on the Phoenix Error Message:
Betsy HP: It's the Best. Error Message. Ever.
Liese: It is. It makes me happy every time I see it. Which isn't often. Which makes me happy. Buffista conundrums of joy.
I even quoted it to my SO, and was startled to note that I did actually have it memorized. And not like the other death messages that I have memorized because I see them so damn often. I have it memorized because I never see it. See what I mean about the conundrums?
Because it's both funny and true. And I just love the expression "Buffista conundrums of joy".
