Well, a meta-COMM's better than nothing I suppose!

That's the line that made me smile out loud, that's the line that gets to be COMMed.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I love this turn of phrase.

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

I love this turn of phrase.
Nilly's now given me two: this one, and patpatsim as the Hebrew word for bubblewrap.
(Possibly doesn't belong in here, but they both made me grin)

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
From Buffy, mildly spoilery (costuming, not plot points) for end of S7:
sj:
I think the Spike name should be retired for use by anyone other than my favorite vampire. Think Mr. Lee would agree to that?
At least we know where TNN really came up with the name for their network that is supposed to be sexy and unapologetically male.
Jess:
So I guess they hadn't seen what he's wearing at the end of Chosen yet, huh?

patpatsim as the Hebrew word for bubblewrap.
I'd like to COMM this, please.
Hebrew, via Nilly: patpatsim = bubblewrap

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

Emlah, in UnAmerican, taking the tran-Tasman taunting to a whole new level:
EXT. OCEANIA - DAY
AUSTRALIA notices NEW ZEALAND getting ready to launch Tom Cruise across the Tasman.
AUSTRALIA
Okay, New Zealand, you wanna point
that somewhere else?
NEW ZEALAND
You better not try and stop me.
AUSTRALIA
No. No stopping. I'm just here for the
view. Hey look, Indonesia.
NEW ZEALAND
Go away.
AUSTRALIA
Never gonna happen.
NEW ZEALAND
You think I won't use this arrogant
movie star?
AUSTRALIA
I don't know, New Zealand, I'm just --
NEW ZEALAND
Stop doing that!
AUSTRALIA
Doing what?
NEW ZEALAND
Stop saying my name like we're friends.
We're not friends. You all think I'm an
idiot. A short idiot.
AUSTRALIA
I don't. I mean, I think Tom Cruise
is a short idiot, but you... I don't
think about you much at all.
Most people here don't. Bugs you,
doesn't it? You've got all this pain,
all these feelings and nobody's
paying attention.
NEW ZEALAND
You think I just want attention?
AUSTRALIA
No, I think you're wielding Tom Cruise
because you want to blend in.
Believe it or not, New Zealand, I
understand. About the pain.
NEW ZEALAND
Oh, right. 'Cause the burden of being
beautiful and lucky, that's a crippler.
AUSTRALIA
I'm sorry, I was wrong. You are an idiot.
My life happens very occasionally to
suck beyond the telling of it. More than
I can stand sometimes. And not just me.
Every single country is ignoring your pain
because they're way too busy with their own.
The beautiful ones, the popular ones, the ones
that pick on you... everyone.
