Zoe: Nobody's saying that, sir. Wash: Yeah, we're pretty much just giving each other significant glances and laughing incessantly.

'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"

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.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Bitches

Deb: Pythons, as I recall, have a nice little gland at the far end that sprays a particularly unpleasant and sticky liquid.

Aimee: Then again, so do men.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Sarameg: "You TOO could go on to an illustrious career as a demented homicidal suicidal cannibal!"

Elena: We're still talking about FOX executives, right?

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

Anne W.: I'm about ready to break my New Year's resolution not to commit homicide.

Calli:

During a lull at work last summer I went back and read every post in the TT thread. I was able to astonish and amaze my friends with the tidbits I picked up. So here's a resounding Thank You!!! to all Tolkien nerds, past and present. Y'all made me look smart.

If only there'd been an "Organic Chemistry: Life and Timing According to ME" thread back in college (or an internet, for that matter). It could have changed my whole career path.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Perkins, in Bitches:

Sleep may like to flirt with me, but it is so not a committed relationship.

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

Elena in Quotables:

13-10, pretty boys coming up on Larry from behind. And, really, he would have wanted it that way.

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

erika (who else?) in Bitches, pointing up the differences/similarities between basketball player Anfernee Hardaway and Anne Rice:

And I bet Anne's(I should clarify Ms. Rice's) knees don't hurt nearly as often, although something has to account for her continued marketability...

Fay: stumbles rudely into thread, tumbling through 3000 posts like Alice topsy-turvying down through the rabbit hole, wondering guiltily what important things she's missed as her skirts fly over her head and she flails around, inadvertently seizing a jar of rosepetal jam from a random shelf.
