'Lineage'
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.
Shrift: Personally, I'm barely resisting the urge to curl up into a fetal position in my office chair, pull the hood of my jacket over my eyes, and take a nap.
I think the only reason why I haven't so far is that I suspect the chair will tip over backwards, and then I would become Aimée.
Matt the Bruins Fan, in Natter:
Tonight while proofing final color pages I discovered that (due to one wrong digit on a previous round proof that was supposed to tell us which stock photo to order) instead of a relatively unassuming deceased public figure photo we ended up with one of the person holding out a cigarette to the camera while positioned behind a wine bottle painted with the image of a nude woman. This photo lacked only a kid in gang colors running with scissors to violate every image taboo our client has instructed us to avoid.
Aimée in Bitches:
We're here! We're DORKS! We know a lot more shit than you do, so give us back our glasses!
What preceded in Bitches --
Aimee: It's funny how as teenagers, we try so hard to ditch the stigma of "dork", yet when we become adults, we embrace the dork and love the dork and surpass the highest esteem of dorkiness that even as young dorks, we could never have fathomed.
From Bitches -- I'm only settin' 'em up. Context would only make it make sense:
amyparker: What are you freaks doing with my name?!?
Cass: Mostly abusing it with pronounciation. There was a safe word but we couldn't agree on how to say it.
Betsy HP:
Even the most affectionate relationship is not proof against bungee-jumping naked with a hangover.
Kat:
I'm beginning to realize that kids will sell each other out for candy. This must be a useful classroom management technique.
I think the first one was Betsy.
Will a second Buffista confirm for me?
I *heart* Cass
If it doesn't look like you slaughtered Barney in the shower when you are done, it's not enough color.
Yes, it's about me, but you wanna make something of it?
Allyson, being the sweetest person ever, in the Minearverse:
To be fair, I get three free months of fucking with ita's name due to helping her out a bit, once. I just haven't cashed in, because it's a choice between that and a free ass-kicking and body disposal, and I think you can see which is worth more.
