Matt, big with the self assessment:
Any illusions I had about keeping a clean house have been forever shattered, and I feel like I need to check into a hotel just to get access to the hot water supply sufficient for a 5 hour shower. With bleach and steel wool.

erikaj, in Literary, addressing our favorite vampire horror writer.....
Anne, babe, get over yourself. You're like a literary dancing bear anyway...we put the money in, wind you up, and off you go...pages and pages of the same thing. Put down the crack pipe and the absinthe glass, ok, babe?

Steph, you didn't happen to give him your heart, did you?
Matt the Bruins fan in Firefly, on a wrongheaded review of Buffy:
Fight scenes better in Season 5 than during the Pruitt/Crawford years? Clearly it must have been hard for the critic to write this review in between his breaks to buy and smoke crack.
Ken Buddha in Bitches:
You think fandom can be insular and occasionally insane? I think foodies may actually have it all over fandom. Chili and BBQ arguments make Joel vs. Mike, Spike vs. Angel and the Ray wars pale by comparison. Sports and stage parents are better behaved, I swear.
Nutty:
Not that I particularly mind the space program getting money, but I do mind any kind of vast, sweeping, expensive initiative when you're already in debt. That way lies living in your parents' basement somewhere down the road.
amych:
Umm, Mom, can we be a colony again? We're, like, really sorry about that whole Revolutionary War business when we moved out -- it just got out of hand. And, you know, money's really tight right now, so we need a place to crash for a while, 'kay?
This is even funnier out of context than in, because you could be talking about literally anything.

as long as I'm not supposed to take them seriously.
I think you're supposed to take them hard. And often.
