Theodosia in Natter:
I'm starting Operation Defrost down in the kitchen. Surely I can't be expected to go into work while my pipes are frozen, right? Right? <me to Boss: "But the lurkers supported me in email!">
We're in love. We're ... lovers. We're lesbian, gay-type lovers.

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
sumi Hmmm, I can see that my lollygagging around the BBB issue is screwing me over in the expectations department -- every new blanket that comes in resets the standards higher.
Deena: Oh sumi, if you only saw it up close, you wouldn't say that. There's definitely a lot more love than skill in that blanket.
billytea: I believe this would be what you call a blanket judgment.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Matt the Bruins Fan in Angel (spoilery):
I think they had to stop and catch their breath after "Destiny." Which used up so much Hoyay!, the Fab 5 from Queer Eye for the Straight Guy were probably wondering where the sudden urge to go fishing and chew tobacco came from.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Emily: It's always such a tricky situation, etiquette-wise, to take legal action against the people who will be going into your mouth with instruments of torture again.
Aimee: Nah - people get divorced and remarried all the time.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Emily:
Announcement: I have made a pretty thing.
No, even better. I have made a neural net which started with randomness and evolved into a pretty thing.
Okay, you may return to whatever you were doing. Thank you.
tommyrot: Today - a neural net. Tomorrow - a self-aware network of computers that enslaves humanity.
Emily: How did you... oh, right. Silly, silly paranoia. Never happen. It's just superstition. No, I've never met MiracleMan in my life. Look! Turtles!

erikaj: I just elevate the tone wherever I go. It's a gift. Me, Grace Kelly, Jacqueline Onassis.

And from the Humorous Juxtapositions Department:
Gus: These Republicans are starting to get my Irish up. They don't know who they're messing with, either. I can still kick Stephen Hawking's axle, any day of the week. Get one of them to stand real still and lean forward a little bit and I'll come close to bitch-slapping them into next Wednesday, in at least two attempts out every five.
ita: I think I've picked a physical therapist.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
As dog is my witness, I think I may just have hurt my back laughing.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
In Bitches:
Steph L: I finally saw Lilo and Stitch, just now. ... Damn little alien dog-monster made me cry.
billytea: I said the exact same thing after watching Jerry Maguire.
