It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

From natter.

Nicole

Also have a couple of journals from high school years that are fun to look back on. Sentences like, "I can't believe we have been together TWO WEEKS already. He held my hand after choir today. Gina was so jealous."

Alibelle

Awesome. That'll show Gina. I bet when she rereads her journals, it says something like: "I hate Nicole. I can't believe he held her hand today. I am so jealous. I hope her voice breaks and she never gets to sing another note in choir. And that one day I get to drive a lamborghini."

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan

In Natter:

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.

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

Flea: The thing is, babies are like chimpanzees on ice - all illogical. And me, I'm Spock

Nobody

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?)

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

It's a remora, dimwit.

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.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

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!

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Madrigal, in Bitches:

There is a feeling of accomplishment in getting the really good deals, like one has managed to stick it to the man, and get an angora sweater in the process.

Hee.

I bop to Wittgenstein. -- Nutty

Two from Bitches (I'd forgotten how much fun catching up in there could be. Damn, it's good to have found time).

sj:

I have no idea what I'm doing, but nearly everyone else in my life seems to think they know all of the answers.

Lyra Jane:

If it's any consolation, they're probably faking it.

erika:

Or craniorectal inversion is their natural state...

Hec:

I always wanted a porn star to use Abraham Lincoln's line in an interview.

erika:

Oh, Hec, you mean the line. "It's better to be silent and be thought a fool than speak and remove all doubt," Yeah, I know about Lincoln than porn. It's the opposite of a mis-spent youth. Go Team Wild Thirties!

Phill (also responding to Hec's line):

Frederick Douglas: Mr. President, the great available yet unavailed force for the Union is the negro soldier.

President Lincoln: Oh hush up, Doug. Why don't you slide up on that desk and we can listen to the sexier angels of our nature.
