Natter 14:
ita: I keep ambling around Friendster thinking "You're too pretty to need a date. Go away." and "OMG. I'd die of embarassment if knew I wanted you to bone and toss."
high plains grifter: Bone and toss...is that one of the new events in the Highland Games?
ita: Show me your caber and we'll talk, laddie.
victor:
On the whole, though, I have no qualms about anyone wanting to date my friends. I mean, most of them are weird, and more than a few are pyromaniacs, but there ARE reasons I'm friends with them.
Fun with Dick and Jane Elena in Bitches 8

Shrift in Firefly, on her work ethic:
I used to be all Work Ethic Person, giving that 110% effort, blah blah dedication-cakes.Fast forward a few years working in corporate America.
I now slink around at work hiding in the shadows, no longer particularly punctual and only randomly productive. If the boss wants to find me, he has to resort to luring me out of my den with donuts, standing well out of reach, because even middle-management can tell I'm feral. I get even worse when it's time for the home office to send in the goons who'll jump me in the shower again, 'cause I've been shanked so damn much that I've lost count.
I write porn at work now, and am very put out when they interrupt me with these ridiculous requests to fix computers.

See? Shrift gets important stuff done!
Aimee:
I like teamwork when it's me telling a bunch of people what to do, my way and when I want it done.
scrappy:
At first I was horrified and very very sad that I made you throw up, but I have decided to make it into a positive.
"You say you're so funny you made someone laugh 'til they cried? That's NOTHING. Why, I once made someone..."
Natter on saints:
billytea -
St Teresa of Avila toddled off at the age of about eight in search of Moors to martyr her. They've marked the spot just outside Avila where her uncle caught up with her.calli-
No martyrdom until you turn 16 young lady!
Who knew saints were so funny?
DavidS: I like the really grotesque saints. Like the woman who carried her amputated breasts on a tray. That really made a statement.
billytea: Yeah. "Would you like fries with that?"
It's "Fun With Religion" Day at Buffistas. From Spoilers, but non-spoilery:
amych: There's a car full o' Kristian Krap that parks in the same lot as me at work -- and one of this person's bumper stickers says "I know the ending - GOD WINS". And every day, I'm like, dude, whitefont!
