This thread is for Buffista quotage. Posts that are profound, witty, or otherwise deserving of immortality go here. This is also Shrift's source for the BRQG, so be aware that if your words end up here, they'll also end up there. Finally, please note which thread spawned the quotage and please white-out anything that might be spoilery to Un-Americans.
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?
Shawn: The basic point is this: women's bodies are highly variable
Phill: And AWESOME! Don't forget AWESOME!
Heather Alayne (nee Finn?) in Bitches:
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.
ita, in Natter:
My most disturbing spam trend is Christian dating. The crusades were one thing, but what the fuck is this?
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.
Phill: Also, why would you have a baby and a parrot on either shoulder?
Theodosia: It's tough to be a working mom and a pirate....
A very nice Hec moment, in Literary:
If the Rapture got rid of the fundamentalists and Freepers, then I'd be one of those guys paying money to breed a red calf in Israel.
The always effervescent JZ, in Natter. Context be damned:
I can't believe I'm wasting energy defending my application of the term "puke" to the stuff that was covering my skirt from hip to knee on Monday night. Other Buffistas get into a lather discussing everything from gerundives to Thomism to the finer points of constitutional law, and here I am saying things like "It was too puke! There was lots of it and it was old! Was too!"
Nutty in Literary on the Left Behind books:
Actually, yeah. Let's hope the guy at the switch at Three Mile Island is an asshole, huh? And the people who drive subway trains better be devil-worshippers. And it wouldn't be very nice of God to kidnap a pilot mid-flight, although I vaguely recall that happens in the first book, and God planned ahead and put a sinning pilot as a passenger on the plane.
So God is hopefully not as dumb as a basic summary puts across.
