Steph, in Natter:
I have to say, working out to Jaws is a little disturbing.
Mal: That's not what I saw. You like to tell me what really happened? Book: I surely would. And maybe someday I will.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Dude, I slash everything from M&M commercials to Disney fiilms. Nothing is sacred.
However, I do think programming like Everybody Loves Raymond is safe, because although I'm sure everybody does love Ray, I really don't want to see everybody love Ray, y'know?

Hec, about Emmett, in Bitches:
We walked through TFAW and Emmett's eyes bugged out when he saw the talking Sauron action figure. He had a huge internal conflict at that point between his Rampant Love of Money and His Insidious Attraction To All Things Evil. Evil won, and he parted with the $20 he got from my Dad for his birthday. This lead to the weird sight of my son literally skipping through the breezeway with Sauron intoning "Build me an army worthy of Mordor!"
And also this brief conversation on the train home...
Emmett (holding up Sauron): Does this dude ever sleep?
Me: I don't think you're allowed to call the dark lord of all evil "dude."

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Betsy, in Bitches -
Daughter, Friday night: "So, what did you do all day? Anything interesting?"
Me: "Uh... wrote some stuff, talked to some people, went to some meetings, nagged some people about reviews, uh.... and defused the nuclear bomb in the trunk of the car."
Daughter, disappointed: "Oh. You noticed."
Son, to daughter: "Ah! Your evil plan had a fatal flaw!"

If I only had a brain...
Billytea, in Natter:
IIRC, the Adirondacks got their name from the name of the Algonquins, and was supposed to commemorate them. The hitch was, it wasn't their own name, but what the Iroquois, which had rather a low opinion of them, used. It means something like 'bark-eaters', and referred to their supposed inability to hit any faster-moving prey even if it was tied down and sedated.

Today's partner (in Muay Thai) punched himself in the jaw when he did anything wrong. Which sort of leaves me with nothing to do.

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
