No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

In Angel, off-topic:

Maysa:I think Aphrodite or Ishtar used to bathe in a special river every night that restored their virginity to them continually.

Cindy:If you are NGA for long enough, I hear it happens without the bath. Also, if you are without a bath for long enough...but I digress.

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

In Angel, continuing on those same lines:

Burrell: As for reclaiming one's virginity, why on earth would one want to do that? I mean, sure I miss the napping with unicorns bit, but the whole dodging the villagers looking for someone to sacrifice to the dragon part? NSM.

ita: Why does one want to restore one's virginity, as a general rule? I mean one might want to restore one's virginity wrt seeing Ishtar but that's as much as I can grok.

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

ita: Hurry up, summer! I need a tan to cover my bruises!

Steph L: you have to understand me and peanut butter; I cannot keep it in the house because I will eat it with a spoon and go through a jar in 3 days, which is why I am not slender

Cheerios (What? I'm catching up!)

ita: You can't vote before you propose, Victor.

P.M. Marcontell: Victor can't propose! He's already married.

victor infante: But... but... I'm an anarchist! That's the whole point!

thessaly: To marriage? Most certainly. ;)

Swouncing

amych in BBaBB, expressing what most (if not all) of us feel:

throws flowers (no, not quite right) throws kisses (not that either) throws knives (well, that was a little suicidal) throws self at ita's feet.

Yes. That's the one.

'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"

Madrigal, reminiscing about Buffy episodes past:

I wanted more about the Knights. I wanted the scene where the head guys went to high school job fairs and isolated the seniors with the best foreheads. They'd give them free doughnuts and answer all questions with, "The key is the link, the link must be severed, such is the will of God," until they'd gotten at least ten people signed up.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Theodosia in Natter (The context is Madrigal's question about The Presidents of the United States actually being the presidents of the United States):

Don't forget Jello Biafra, who would add a Vaclav Havel-like ambiance to the White House.

Thrive to spite them

Dana to ita in Angel:

My "VK is hot" boat has already sailed, ita, and you're just a leetle tiny figure, waving at me impotently from the "I'm on Crack" dock.

Please don't hurt me.

Thanks for all the fish.

Back in Angel on WX, non-spoilery.

Jessica - And really, wouldn't you want your minions dressed as dorkily as possible so that your own supersexy Evil clothes looked that much better?

Kristen - So the relationship between an evil overlord and their minions is much like a bride and her bridesmaids.

PMM - Yeah, pretty much.

Jessica - (This would be the part in the BtVS ep where Anya points out that there really is a Bridezilla...)

Kristen - So teal taffeta truly is an instrument of the devil. I always suspected that.
