Tara: Do you have any books on robots? Giles: Oh, yes, dozens. There's a lot of research to be done in order to--no, I'm lying. Haven't got squat. I just like watching Xander squirm.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Twofer!

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Madrigal Costello:

Anybody want a pound of sour cream? For some reason my roommate bought it when grocery shopping, even though she hates it and I'm allergic to it and it wasn't even accidentally on the list or on sale. I'm thinking I'll see if a local food kitchen will take it, or I'm just going to end up having to find something to chuck it at. (And when asked why she bought it, she answered, "I don't know. I could have stole a car. Instead, I bought sour cream.")

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

billytea:

(Speaking for myself, BTW, I really like buffets. I have options, but the constraint of fitting my choices on a single plate. It's a meal, and a geometry puzzle!)

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Although the topic started as a change to the F2F thread blurb, it quickly became something else....

Cindy: We've done it twice. We may have lice. Time for ritual sacrifice.

billytea: Having tackled the problem of unprotected teenage sex, Cindy was next asked to rewrite the "Anti-Drug" campaign.

Thanks for all the fish.

Angel's character is to be the guy who has to keep giving updates of his moral status every time he runs into old acquaintances.

A fellow makes himself conspicuous when he throws soft-boiled eggs at the electric fan.

PMM in Angel Spoilers, not spoily unless you want to be surprised by her Halloween costume:

(My other notion, though not for work, involves a corset and a tightish overdress thing with a bunch of XML mark-up on it.)

(I'd be going as a well-formed document.)

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Holli, on Bible marketing trends, in Literary:

There's a headline on the cover of that bizarro teen Bible that says "GUYS SPEAK OUT On Important Issues."

Now, I know I don't speak for all teenage girls, but I think that once I figured out that the Important Issues had to do with, like, Temple sacrifices and the stoning of loose women, I probably wouldn't keep reading for the part where the hott boyz reveal their top ten turn-ons. Mostly because I have a higher IQ than the average sponge.

Cindy, in Natter:

If a Cubs/Sox series comes to be, it'll truly be about their respective, long-suffering, loyal-to-a-fault fandoms, and the billions they've poured into therapy and bars.

I'm just still trying to puzzle out how they could both lose.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

DavidS, in Natter:

You don't know the joy of burning the village of your neighbors, putting them to the sword and wading through the blood of their small pet animals!!! I laugh at your hippielove ways, unless of course you were to offer me tea with home-made scones and devon cream and lemon curd. At which point I will put aside my gorey blade and have a cuppa.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Never mind the context, here comes Erin in Bitches:

I can't believe I just admitted to trying to scent-mark my couch.
