Maybe it's my teacher's kid history showing, but I found this hilarious:
Madrigal Costello: I was thinking Kat and I could do a cross-country clue-shoveling of the people who've committed these wrongs in academia. The positives are getting to travel, witnesses being unable to identify us, and meeting new people, then whacking them with shovels.
Kat: But the downside is that asshat administrivia types in academia are a dime a dozen. We could strike one down with a shovel, Madrigal, and like a Heather, another would rise to replace it.
deborah grabien: I'd say there's all sorts of academia-related people who could use a cluestick smack. Kat, Madrigal, good grief.
Madrigal Costello: Okay, so we track down their red scrunchie of power, or their red scrunchie of power equivalent, and then destroy it in the fires of Mordor, or feed it to an ocelot.
DXMachina: Yes, but you'd still get to hit an incompetent boob with a shovel. That's an end in and of itself.
In Buffy, discussing people appearing in adverts:
Beverly:
And Robia La Morte is in a Wall Street Journal commercial.
Ken Buddha:
I thought she didn't want to play the first evil anymore?
smonster:
And KenSnerk Co., llc stock rises ten points due to a strong start in the new fiscal year.
Hmm - post seems to have been lost, but I wanted to say getting COMMed twice on my birthday is bestest present a boy could get.
Err, now if someone could put the "to" in that I should have put between "want" and "play" I'd be even more obliged. I corrected it in the Buffy thread.
Done, Ken. Now you can't say I didn't get you anything for your birthday.
erika does spike... one better. re: hec's new job
Inspired by compliments indulgent, The Bitches pass on jobma most effulgent. (Ha! Knew I could do better than "bulge in 't")
And, smonster, if Spike would do me, I would buy him a rhyming dictionary and a thesaurus.
COMMin above post, please:
erika:
if Spike would do me, I would buy him a rhyming dictionary and a thesaurus.
Mostly because it's something I've thought before now and never got around to articulating.
catching up in Dude....
Nutty:
I don't know, but I think, if I had a choice, I would work really hard not to name my child after the soap-operatically doomed hero of yore who lost his elf-love, impregnated his amnesiac sister, and died a ravening madman. Just, you know, a personal thing, like not naming my child Stalin or Nimrod or Grover Cleveland.
From Bureaucracy (fear not, b'cyphobes, it is of the natter)
Nutty:
I stuck an onion up its butt and cooked it and it is yummy.
Noumenon:
Nutty's Chicken Butt recipe. I'd cross the road for it.
