Spike ,'Showtime'
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.
Askye in Fanfiction on the vagueries of conjoined names in fandom - specifically Spike/Willow:
Spillow sounds like a weird sexual dysfunction. "The poor guy, not only does he have erectile dysfunction but he also has spillow." Or maybe "You know, he doesn't just have a problem with premature ejaculation, he also has a problem with spillow."
Steph:
Whispered conversation at a cocktail party:
Woman 1: "What's the story on THAT hunk?"
Woman 2: "Oh, darling. Best to avoid him."
Woman 1: "Why on earth?"
Woman 2: "Spillow."
Woman 1: "Ohhhhh."

That's what's always amused me about clothes with slogans like "In case of rapture, this t-shirt will be empty" or something. And I'm thinking, "Really? They're all going to be nekkid on the way up?" 'Cause you know, a lot of them are going to be pretty good-looking, and that's going to be more flesh than most of them are probably used to seeing. I'm expecting more than a little lusting going on during the trip, with the prospect that some invitations could be revoked rather suddenly, with unfortunate consequences. So, y'know, Falwell may call it the Rapture, but to me it'll always be "The Rain of Naked Christians".
Beat me to it.
'cept it was the Angel thread, not Natter.
DavisS in, oddly enough, the Angel thread:
I am now seeing a scene on Buffy where Spike does Xander some huge favor (saves Anya?) and Xander says, "I hate to admit this, but I owe you." Then there's the scene where Willow walks into Xander's apartment where he's got the rubber gloves on and is doing Spike's roots.
Steph L in Natter:
Clearly I need to start collecting something besides petty resentments.
Collectible Natter,
DX:Is it collecting when you buy all sorts of odd stuff, and never, ever throw it away. Because I do that.
NUTTY: I think that is called having a garage.

Underwire is the Brooklyn Bridge of my personal grooming. Sure, you could go without, but the local economy would collapse.
Or you'd have to take a boat to get to Manhattan, but that part of the metaphor doesn't make any sense.
Billytea in Firefly:
Look, if the coffee maker broke, then MiracleMan would Kill. Them. All.
And the Firefly audience would all be aghast, while the Buffistas are bouncing up and down and screaming "Shoutout!!"
