In Bitches:
Aimée: I regulated all of my piles to the trash. If it's that important, I'll get it again.
Shawn: I am intrigued by your ideas and would like to subscribe to your literature.
Xander: I still don't get why we came here to get info about a killer snot monster. Giles: Because it's a killer snot monster from outer space. I did not say that.

Jess PMoon (about Battlefield Earth, but really it could be any movie):
It's also one of the most faithful book-to-movie adaptations in existance. Watching the movie is exactly like reading the book. (Which is to say, tedious and irritating in the kind of way that makes you want to scream and throw things at the people responsible for putting this shit on the page/screen. But still, it's impressive.)

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Madrigal Costello: That Oliver guy said that he was an underage drinker, driver and bestialist of cats and dogs. He happily anticipates going to jail where he expects to receive golden showers. I think he's one of the kids I regularly tutor.
Betsy HP: In what?

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
Nutty in Firefly:
I think even space nihilists would draw the line at gnawing on intestines. They do have some standards.

Calli:
When I'd only been in NC for a few years, I saw a man with his arms full approaching a door. So I opened it for him. He thanked me and we went on with our lives.
Or rather he did. I got to listen to my Southern Belle acquaintance tell me -- at length -- that I shouldn't have done such a thing. A proper lady would never impugn a gentleman's strength and resourcefullness and yadda yadda like that. Besides, and she leaned over to whisper this part, "It's fun to watch 'em struggle." I replied that I'd rather have practical good manners than coded good manners that were really flimsily hidden malice.
It's not entirely amazing that we no longer hang out.

Shari_H: I think in all my years I've made two that actually look like kippot. The rest are affectionately referred to as "nose warmers" by my DH
Maybe it made me smile out loud because I've been there and done that too many times, maybe because of the imagery, probably because of both.
