From the Somervillains list (yeah, not a thread--sue me)
Theodosia:
Subject: Dirty Pretty Things...
... is playing in the evening this Saturday and Sunday at the Somerville Theatre at 7:30 and 10 PM. Anybody interested?
DXMachina:
My first thought was "The Bitches got their own movie?"
I liked tina f.'s parry to joe boucher's Daffy Duck thrust (or is that a thrust to a parry?)
Joe: "What ho! Tuck! Parry!" BOOIINNG!! I'd like to see Dave's bill bent at a 90 degree angle & him having to unbend it with both hands. (Requisite apologies to Daffy Duck.)
tine f.: "I've heard many a description of DLR doing so much coke at once that he doesn't realize his upper lip is stuck to his nose. So - you know - sorta the same thing."

sarameg:
What IS it with scruffy-faces on characters this season? Sure, there's a plausible explanation this time, but why on those who look better unscruffy.
Sophia Brooks:
I think Syndey Bristow may have been a potential. Or at least that that might make an interesting cross-over.
Madrigal Costello:
And with these two posts together it seems that future facial hair for Jennifer Garner is being pondered.
sarameg:
A lot happened in 2 years...
Madrigal:
Hmm. Sydney Bristow could become Sidney Bristow.
Sophia:
And Sidney is the first male slayer...
And that's it, guys. Quit being funny. It's hard to keep running over here to edit my post.
Flea:
The thing is, babies are like chimpanzees on ice - all illogical. And me, I'm Spock
In Bitches, context be damned. Myself only for set up.
Cindy: [...] pregnancy frequently intensifies everything. When you are tired, you're exhausted. Hungry = starving. Queasy = vomiting. Laughing = fits. Anger = fury.
billytea:
This is absolutely the best argument I've heard against teenage pregnancy. Hormones on hormones.
Oh, wait. That's the argument against my sister ever getting pregnant. (May I just stop and note how very important it is to get the words in that sentence in the right order?)
Redefining on-topic, in Quotables.
Ken Buddha: Who's more quotable than Willy the bard?
Cindy:Joss the bastard?
PM Marcontell:Once you've accepted The Jesus, it takes a lot of work to get the dirt to stick. Trust me, I've been trying.
Steph L:
Why can't it be a nice tasteful A-line PVC dress?
sarameg in Natter, summing up a particular flavor of fannishness:
Well, new spousal characters means more people for use in death/betrayal plotlines to induce maximum trauma on the characters. Wheee!
