In Bitches:
Trudy:I would find a talking insect fascinating.
Perkins:I dunno if I would. I mean, what would it say. Mosquitos might be cool, because they'd be all "blood, blood, who has the blood?", but flies would just go on about vomiting on food and such.
In Bureaucracy 2: Like Sartre, Only Longer. Nobody wants this context.
Typo Boy:
Given that we tend to rely on intent over strict interpetation of language. And we tend favor common sense over intent.
Burrell:
Have you and I been following the same discussion?
</brat>
Typo Boy:
Looking at the destination, not journey - because so not zen.
billytea, context-free (or go look it up yourself in UnAms):
It's inexplicable I know, but in my experience, when seeking a date, discernable motion in the testicle area isn't such a drawcard as you'd think.
In Unamerican:
Burrell Pregnancy is like sprinkling Miracle Gro on one's breasts.
Betsy HP And weaning is like sprinkling Instant Mummy on them
ita and Allyson, on the Meyer-Briggs test (in Natter):
ita: What did you score?
Allyson: Dunno, the results get emailed to some other person who will undoubtedly tell me I suck.
ita: No, they'll tell you you have to be more assertive, or some dumb shit like that.
Allyson: I think they're going to tell me I have to be more organized, and less assertive.
At which point I'm going to beat them senseless with the corpse of Betty Friedan.
Betsy HP in Movies:
Legally Blonde 2 is not worthy of the thespian talents of Demi Moore. Who isn't in it, but still.
MM in Natter:
Dude, would that make the Holy Spirit God's "wingman"?
"No, dude, seriously, whyn't you cruise on up there and talk to her? Get me some info. Then I'll sweep on in and get the digits."
A few minutes later.
"Yo, Big Guy, she's married."
"So?"
DXMachina in Bitches:
Ah, the Bitch version of tar and feathers - hot fudge and glitter...
Betsy with the setup, and billytea with the punchline, in Natter:
I'm assuming they'll justify it by his lifelong commitment to entertaining the troops. Which is indeed praiseworthy, but... does that mean Hugh Hefner gets flags at half-mast, too?
I'm pretty sure that's the last way Hef would want to be remembered.
Sean K: Erika, when I was eight ot nine, I had another kid get very upset at me and tell to "stop using grown-up words" because I had used the word "gravity" in a sentence. Even at the time I was boggled that she didn't know that word and had gotten so upset.
Plus? Had no idea what word to use besides "gravity."
Jess PMoon: The hold-y down-y force.
