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."
Angel: Will you just shut up for once?! Illyria: What? Angel: My God, the speechifying. Has it ever occurred to you that now might not be the best time for when-we-were-muck stories?

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".

If I only had a brain...
Beat me to it.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
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.

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!!"
