It's a remora, dimwit.

All is well that ends in pizza.
That means some people can read it, but it's not spoken very often?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Madrigal on Fire! (with an assist from Matt, who's also been on a roll), Boxed Set:
Madrigal: So would this not be the place to mention that every time my bus passes the pet store with the "Frozen Companion Dinners" sale sign, I picture Inara defrosting a Swanson's for Ho's, and then have to keep from laughing every time my brain repeats the phrase "Swanson's for Ho's."?
Matt: This and Futurama have collided to give me the mental image of Inara going to market and buying a 25 lb. bag of Hooker Chow. Which I'm guessing would be the freeze-dried version of those little cookies and watercress sandwiches that are served with Tea.
Madrigal: "Hooker Chow.....Now With Tang!"

Madrigal:
I'm sorry about Mouse, but s/he seems to have had a good long life with loving people, and what more can a cat ask for, except for maybe a house full of furniture stuffed with catnip and an injured bird dispenser in the kitchen.

Susan W., in the Angel thread, white-fonted:
kind of wish Buffy were around, or we could see a phone conversation between her and Spike, just to get the following exchange:
Spike: So, here I am, yanked out of heaven--your mum and Tara say hi, by the way--and stuck with the Hairloaf and his evil lawfirm. What do you have to do to stay dead around here? You'd think dying to save the world...er...that is....
Buffy: Yeah, never seems to stick. Next time I'm going for random and senseless.

Phill re: clothing sizes in Natter:
Can't we just drop the numbers and go to a Garanimals based system:
At the theGap I'm a Kudu, but at Banana Republic and Express I'm an Ibex. I think I've gotten down to an Old Navy Narwhal though. Thank god, I don't think I could've faced myself if I had stayed at capabayra.
Oh, and they have to be odd animals, did I mention that?

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
Shawn: The basic point is this: women's bodies are highly variable
Phill: And AWESOME! Don't forget AWESOME!

I have ordered my Halloween costume! Wheee. I'm going to be a cowboy (because I got here on time!), and my best friend will be an indian.

My most disturbing spam trend is Christian dating. The crusades were one thing, but what the fuck is this?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
JZ, in Bitches:
Awww, reveling in all the love, and also in visions of rivers of blood flowing from the stoopid people bothering Cashmere with irrelevant and idiotic request. Because I am affectionate yet violent. I'm layered like that.
