In Natter, laughing with Betsy...
Betsy: I just walked backward into a fountain.
sarameg: Is that part of some sort of ritual?
Allyson: Did you fall into the fountain like Davy Jones in a zany madcap episode of the Monkees?
Betsy: Yes, actually. I was standing in line in the company courtyard to get a hamburger, I stepped back to get out of somebody else's way, and I fell into the fountain.
It was one of those modernistic fountains that's a pile of pebbles sunk 1 foot below the stone courtyard, but still. My badge is dripping.
I feel that I have contributed my quantum to today's Comedy Quotient.
Allyson: As is the rule amongst my tribe, first we must laugh at you, then we check to make sure you are alright. If you are alright, we must laugh at you again, and if you are hurt, we shall care for you until such a time when you have recovered sufficiently to take the laughing at.
Whoa! COMM Hat Trick Baybee!
In Bitches:
Jess PMoon:
Between this and the DVD-buying thing, I should really have a penis.
billytea:
Have you checked eBay?
In Literary:
sarameg: Anybody else read Lois Lowry's Summer to Die?
Kate P: Yes, when I was in 7th grade and happened to be getting a lot of nosebleeds. Thank you, Ms. Lowry, for convincing me I was going to die of leukemia.
(Thanks Nilly, who isn't lazy like me!)
Katie, the Unknown Buffista was sarameg.
in Natter, after being asked for sex or math talk:
Sean K: If fourteen people are in an orgy, and six of them are women (all bi) and three of the men are bi, and one of the men is gay only, how many orafices will be filled with please, how many people are going to have to also take care of business orally?
Betsy HP: Fuck migraines until they no longer have an orifice. [TOTAL CROSS-POST! NOT A FOLLOW-UP! I SWEAR!]

reflects upon the Purple Polar Bear story in the news right now:
It's a great story. I imagine the bear having an Oz-like reaction to waking up and finding itself purple. Calling back home to see if its nephew's purple, that sort of thing.
Billytea:
And remember, it's 'i' before 'e' except after 'c' and in the case of deities and atheists, who apparently get to make up their own rules.
