And JenP in response to the above:
Yeah, it's a bitch. I've come thisclose a coupl of times, but then I think ... eh, too much freakin' work, and I just KNOW I'll miss something. Screw it.
Oh, I'm gonna go to the special hell.

billytea in Natter, on spam etiquette:
So, I just got a piece of Spam with the title: "Thousands have healed nail fungus". How do you respond to this? "Yay"? "Go them"? "Back to the old drawing board"?

Ginger, discussing medical problems in Bitches:
The treatments are three weeks apart, and there are only two more. I'll have other stuff after that, including surgery, but I'll be glad when this is over. I mainly want my hair back. I find myself making extravagant promises to my eyebrows. "When you grow back, I'll have you professionally waxed! I'll buy you special eyebrow products!"

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

ita: Extrapolate my ass.
Burrell: ita looks fine in a pair of pants. I can assume that she has a fine ass.
There, I just extrapolated ita's ass.
Moments like this, the reason I am actually reading 2000 messages instead of skipping...

From Natter:
ita: You do pro bono? Now I feel I should go get myself in trouble.
Shawn: We do pro bono for the needy, not the belligerent employed.

Because I'm not a baseball fan, but still a cynical Bostonian, I keep thinking, "Huh. They don't usually wait this long before choking."

I bought one of those Swiffer duster thingies.
Cleaning equipment of the Gods, I tell you. Someone at Molly Maids got sacrificed for that invention.

Spoilery if you haven't seen this week's Angel, but another great tidbit from the Shawn and ita Show:
ita:I seem to remember about 5'6. Drastically shorter than just about everyone else on the Angel cast.
Shawn:Ah, the random disappearances get explained. They happen when he is too close to members of the cast.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
Discussing JM's height and proportions in Angel.
SusanW: IOW, he's built like a typical male figure skater
Shrift: Now I'm envisioning Spike on skates in the Vampcapades, performing to the Sex Pistols.
BWAH!!!!!!!

Betsy HP, in response to a Buffista request for "the cautionary tale of the Sweet Young Thing and the Pumpkin Tablecloths":
I need this story.
Once upon a time there was a Sweet Young Thing. And she insisted on Pumpkin Tablecloths, even though the Wedding Planner, who had warned her about her Inappropriate Gown, told her they were gauche.
And just as the Sweet Young Thing stood up for her First Dance with her Own True Love (her new husband being out of the room), the spotlight picked out the minister buggering a dead goat on the centerpiece.
She was just mortified.
