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.
Karl in Bitches, regarding the merits of Halle Berry and Angela Bassett:
It is possible that I am letting personal biases colour my judgement here, of course. But I regard a comparion between these two women as something like a comparison between Helen Mirren and Posh Spice. Sure, one gets a lot of drooling magazine coverage, but staying power? Not so much.
Posh Spice is doing very well for herself, actually.
Upon hearing about Jim's marriage, in UnAmerican:
Jon: Great news Jim! Have you merged your record collections?
Emily:
Anyone have any motivation to spare? Cause I'm running on the fumes of obligation here.
BHP in Angel, explaining the context would take way too long:
I detic, you have a good memory, she is an anal-retentive nut.
In Natter...speaking a different language, one that I now understand and that makes me laugh.
Emily: Wait, are we talking about the GEM, or one of my more evanescent relationships?
Sean: The one with the bird nickname.
In the ROTK thread:
Jeff Mejia:
Sauron himself was caught in the flood, and afterwards could only be seen as the flaming eye.
Nutty:
I love how nobody questions this logic. You were an evil, corporeal lord, and then you became a [still corporeal] slimy-nice advisor to the king, and then, when you drowned? Reincarnated as a flamey eyeball. (Okay, a spirit of flamey evilness that is represented for shorthand as an eyeball. Or a vulva.) I think the moral of this story is, if you drown, stay dead.
This goes double if your name is Leonardo DiCaprio.
Jars, in the Movie thread:
See, In general I have no problem when people next to me cry in the cinema. Unless that person is my dad. And the movie in question is Cool Runnings. And he was weeping like the nine year old girl I was at the time.
Wolfram in the Minearverse. My gut? She is busted ...
