More Hamlet:
amych: <swoons at the thought of seeing Fiennes do Hamlet onstage>
Emily: Or for that matter Gertrude.
I don't give a good gorram about relevant, Wash. Or objective. And I ain't so afraid of losing something that I ain't gonna try to have it. You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Pretty angsty boys make everything better.
Matt the Bruins fan in Angel, and context be damned:
LORNE: Hey, who ever figured I'd have trouble recognizing Angel from behind?

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

Casablanca
please tell me it's a rumor.
Aimée: Ohmigawd. I'll pray for whoever thought that would be good idea.
Matt the Bruins fan: I'll pray for a suspended sentence for whoever mows that person down.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Emily in Bitches, with wise words of comfort:
"Here Erin has gone before me, and prepared a way, And she hath laughed upon it, and said, God, that sucked, but it's fucking funny, isn't it? And therefore shall I not despair."

Can I just say that Huggybear is the worst pimp name ever? It sounds like one of the lost Care Bears. I wonder what would come out of his tummy?

Cindy answering my question about the existence of a UK version of the Miranda speech in UnAmerican:
ita - I believe it goes,
Pardon us, we don't mean to intrude at such a trying time, but we thought perhaps, amidst all the commotion, there were a few things you should consider keeping in mind. It is terribly important that you remember you have the right to hold your peace. If you ask us, this world would be a spot better off if we all tried doing so from time to time, not that you did ask of course. And if you will allow us to be a tad blunt, well, you are already in a sticky wicket, are you not? Saying something that could and will be used against you, is probably not the prudent course of action. Right, then. Furthermore, you of course realize that you have the right to contact a solicitor, but we do find reminding folks in situations such as the one at hand, does come in handy. Please enjoy your stay. Pip pip. Cheerio.

Arachnophobia, in Bitches, part 1 -
connie neil:
OK, I bet I can top your "kill the motherfucker arachnid!" stories--Hubby heard me making odd noises in the kitchen one day, swearing like he's never heard me swear, and came to investigate. And took the .45 automatic pistol from my hands that I was trying desperately to get the safety off.
But, dammit, it was BIG. And it LOOKED AT ME. And it was not going to be living much longer. Hubby took it outside and made me promise never to go for firearms to dispose of varmints inside the house again.
Jilli VoiceOfReason:
Okay, Connie wins. That beats my can of AquaNet hairspray and a lighter trick.
DavidS:
So...spiders are a No? Is that the message I'm getting here? I don't want there to be any ambiguity on this subject.
connie neil:
Hec, I nearly shot my kitchen wall, I think "spiders are a no" is kind of a law of the universe at this point.
DavidS:
I gotta say this makes me feel more nervous about being in your kitchen than I do about spiders.
Aimée:
Hell, I wonder what she does when her risotto is bad. Uzi? Hand grenade?
connie neil:
Um, should I not mention that going to the shooting range is one of the best stress relievers I know? And this was several years ago and I'm MUCH smarter about gun safety now?
DavidS:
So now you'd just pistol-whip the spider?
Sean K:
This is why I do not allow myself to own firearms. I would be trying to shoot the big-ass spiders, too.
connie neil:
I'm not irresponsible, I'm not!
David J. Schwartz:

brenda m:
Huh. I don't mind spiders at all. I'm not fond of beetles or centipedes but I just stomp them and it's all good. Spiders I ususally leave alone.
DavidS:
Go Brenda, with the sanity! Woo hoo!
not afraid to go to Brenda's kitchen, no sir.
brenda m:
I'm sure I've got a crazy phobia buried somewhere, but as yet it hasn't jumped out at me from a dark corner, and so I live in ignorance.
DavidS:
Is this what's it come to? You have to apologize for your mental health?

Madrigal, in Natter 11:
The twisted moral I got from that story was that it pretty much always sucks to be a sheep, so if possible, be the shepherd who gets to decide who's a priority.
