Sean K: (psst... hey MM, go back in and put a forced break between "Halfwit" and "ShitForBrains" or somewhere thereabouts.)

Heather Alayne in Bitches, reveling in power:

It's like I'm queen of my little music world. Bands and artists get up to play for me, and I get to say, "Yes Queen Heather is pleased, play for me!" or "This pleaseth me not! Begone!" or as was the case with Creed a minute ago "Off with their heads!"

When an inspiring typo infects Movies, the discussion of The Hulk veers into tasty territory:

JessPMoon: He still looks damn silly jumping all over the dessert like that.

Aimee: Hulk maaad! Hulk jump into creme broulle!!

victor: Heh. I was thinking it, too. I was thinking, "of course he looks silly! Hulk would definitely stop for delicious pie!"

Griffyn: Hulk love Hostess Fruit Pies!

Katie M: Well, it would explain the weight gain.

A little more math Natter:

deborah grabien: Speaking just for me, I'd honestly have to go with, my math teachers were Toltec High Priest wannabes with elementary school students instead of captive Mayan maidens from whom to rip the still-beating hearts.
They seemed to resent it.
Raquel: Heh. Wouldn't you?

And now language from Natter:

Shawn: ita=smrt
DXMachina: Getting back to languages, that equation .means "ita=death" in Czech.
amych: The Czechs=smrt.

(Context be dammed, it's Buffista Power!)

Griffyn: in my private little mind, we are the reason for this change and have played a part in the process on a global (or at least international) scale.

Deborah Grabien vs. the math teacher:

"Good morning, Deborah. I'm Mister/Mrs/Ms/Professor Whatever, and I'll be your mathematics teacher. Now, let's get started. First off - why do you need to know Math? (gives indulgent smile) Well, Math is the foundation of all things. With it, we can see the foundation of our world and our universe, plus do things like build bridges and tell what's oblique and what's acute."

(teacher takes sip of water)

"Let's start with the basics. Oh, good, you know how to do some of it already? Good, that's a start. Now, the thing to remember is, Math is true all the time, everywhere; it's the one great constant in the universe. Yes, haha, I know it sounds like a religion, but it isn't, it's science. Now, as I was saying, - what do you mean, how do I know it's constant? Here, watch this, I'll prove this to you."

(turns to chalkboard)

"Two plus two equals four. See? What do you mean, what's a two? (makes rather too obvious mental note, deciding that child is either a moron or a wiseass) How many hands do you have - two, precisely. What do you mean, what makes that combination 'two'? Because those things put together will always equal that quantity, and we call it 'two', OK? No, it is NOT an 'artificial construct designed to make it easier to order things the way I want them!' - it's MATH!"

(voice is getting shrill)

"How do I know that? How do I know WHAT? About it always equalling four? Because it's MATH! Math is a CONSTANT! Look, you have to take constants as a matter of faith, or else the universe becomes - I don't CARE that what you perceive as the artificial imposition of order on chaos to make the species feel better about itself is the reason you're not a practicing member of any known religion! We're not talking about theology, or philosophy - we're talking about NUMBERS! And LOGIC! Are you insane, or just stupid? You have to accept constancy! And I swear, if you say that you don't see what logic has to do with believing in constants, I'm going to - OUT! GET OUT OF MY CLASSROOM!"

Non-math Natter:

Sean: When the hell did curvy go out of style? I don't understand. Pencils are not sexy.

Madrigal Costello: So while to most my birthstone is just a glorified sandpaper stone, I get to inwardly chuckle knowing it can unlock the gates of Hell.

ita: I have no responsibility to look undamaged
