In The Minearverse: YExpirationDateMV

ita: I just heard a rumour that the Wonderfalls premiere is getting such critical acclaim there's talk of moving it from midseason to late October. Anyone else heard the same?

Madrigal Costello: Nope, though the rumor that I'd be spreading was that the acclaim was what caused the beagle who played Porthos on "Enterprise" to decide to leave his job there in the hopes of getting a part on "Wonderfalls."

Allyson: I have heard of much acclaim for Wonderfalls, and much booing and hissing at Tru Calling. It'd be weird if Wonderfalls replaced Tru, eh? In which case, what will happen to our Doug Petrie? Eep!

Madrigal Costello: He, and other former members of ME, could go on to make what would surely be a hit show - "Law&Order:CSI:Serenity" or "Which Space Vampire Wants to Marry Jennifer Lopez?"

ita: They should never have split up.

In Bitches...

Trudy: We could talk about someone hot...

Or the fact that I work for Satan...

Plei: Y'know, those things are, at times, connected. IJS.

Trudy: PMM, I fear for your eternal soul.

Plei: Next, you're gonna tell me evil doesn't have to mean sexy.

Teppy: Two words: Donald. Rumsfeld.

Let me just say that popularity with people on public transportation does not equal literary respect. --Jesse

In Movies:

Madgrigal It's very strange when suddenly all the young actors go from just older than you, to about your age, to younger than you.

Jon B. Substitute "Playboy centerfolds" for "actors" and I am you.

Ann, that's a ferret.

In NATTER 16, discussion of sexual habits, mostly ND's:

ND: I'd like to consider myself omnisexual.

Trudy: You do naughty things to magazines and cars?

ND: What, you don't?

ita: cues up a medley of Darling Nikki/Little Red Corvette

ND:

Teppy: The lambada? Because it's 2003 -- I don't think it's forbidden anymore.

Aimee: rethinks moving into ND's building

Aw, what the hell...

grabs CD rack

ND: When we were loading in The Laramie Project I made one of our producers die laughing when I started humping a 32" TV.

Sean: Hey man, TVs are sexy...

Madrigal in Spike's Bitch:

I can't even stand tongue piercing, let alone clit piercing. I mean, if someone so desires that feeling of metal, well, either have a partner wear a thimble on their tongue, or do it with a robot.

deborah grabien (hear her roar)

Hullo.

I shopped for a catering gig that, in one day, went from a mellow little party of about 26 adults and 7 kids, to 40 adults and an undisclosed number of kids that is certainly greater than 7.

Also, I fixed my back door! With a drill and very long wood screws!

I think I'll just trot out back and cut metal with fire, or paint stylised bisons in a cave, or some junk.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Cindy, in Natter, relating a conversation with her DH about their disappointment with The OC:

DH: The Buffistas told you to watch this?

ME: Please don't. I've just had several illusions shattered at once. I can't discuss it. It's too painful.

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

erika j: I had to read "Old Man and The Sea" over the summer once. Though it was short, I'm apparently still quite bitter about it.I remember thinking "If I wrote that, I'd shoot myself too,"

I'm getting the pig!

In Natter:

ita:

Elena, is there maybe a more bootstrappy solution for you? It would take more geekery, but a video card with TV input can theoretically do the job (please note the ATI in Wonder I have can't even come close to TiVo, but there must be better).

Elena:

Elena, is there blah blah blah boot blah blah? Blah, blah, blah, TV, blah blah (blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah TiVo, blah blah).

I feel like a dog.

Swouncing

She even refers to the lack of context:

Liese: years from now when I've forgotten all context and I'm searching old threadsucks, I'll be all...why was I claiming to be a deity?
