Trudy in Bitches on the joy of buxom buffistas:
Fay, we shall boobie-squish when we hug. Weeee!
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

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
Kat Perez making me snort in Buffy: After all, wouldn't it have made more sense to have Giles handle the translation duties now that he's back? I mean what else has he been doing besides second guessing Buffy and buying turtlenecks at the mall?

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
erikaj in Buffy:
I really did think fighting Ultimate Evil would be more consistently exciting.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Teppy, in Natter (no spoilers, so far as I can see, just a personal opinion):
I've never seen Alias at all, but my Buffy-watching Mom and my non-Buffy-watching stepdad watch it faithfully. After the finale, Mom e-mailed me and pronounced that (this is a direct quote): "it jumped the shark. That is the right phrase, right? Something with a shark."

Wolfram:
Time to plan some hazing rituals for the newbies. Suggestions?
Aimée:
They have to read every single post from B'cry 1 and then pass an essay quiz based on the answers they don't find.
Wolfram:
Okay there's hazing, and then there's torture.
Aimée:
Leave it to a lawyer to point out the difference.

Jon B., in Buffista Music 1:
They played there twice to support "All Over The Place". I missed them the first time, but then a year or so later they returned and I caught them. I was right up front and Suzanna Hoffs did this thing where she ran back and forth across the stage while playing, and looked straight into the eyes of a bunch of different audience members (including mine!). I remember that my heart and brain were having this little internal struggle:
Brain: Interesting. This is exactly what male rock guitarists do with female audience members all the time. How fascinating that Ms. Hoffs is twisting gender stereotypes.
Heart: Guhhhhh.

billytea, in Bitches, on the subject of the giant, 2000+ year old mushroom:
For myself, I have certain objections (moral and otherwise) to eating entities that predate Christianity.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Trudy, in Bitches:
OXYCLEAN!
Honestly, I don't know how we menstruated without it.

Deena in Natter:
Tigger is bouncy, yes, and totally oblivious to other people's opinions. Tigger bounces people into bushes, and eats medicine for his favorite treat, and gets lost and stuck in trees and is irresponsible. Tigger is a manic Connor who can't find his family.
