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.

Bev: I suddenly thought one day, while looking at a pelmetted, cornice-boarded, swagged and jabot-ed window that had, really commited no offense to anyone, why?
I mean, it's dark inside, so you cut a hole in the wall to let some light in, and to see outside without having to go outside. And then sometimes you want it to be be dark inside, so you cover the hole, but sometimes you want it open, but drafts come in around it, so you want to muffle the drafts, so you push the window covers to the sides to help cut down the draft. But basically, it's a hole in the wall with fabric hung there to perform certain functions. Okay, color, I can see curtains being an opportunity for color. But when it starts getting into cornices and jabots, I'm standing here with my head tilted going, whuh?

Matt the Bruins fan : There IS a God! And he's fabulous!
Wolfram, in natter:
There once was a site called Buffista,
Whose members were top of the lista,
With compassion and snark,
Their posts hit the mark,
Except that sometimes they tend to run a little wordy and long-winded until sheer exhaustion forces them to stop typing before they hurt their wrista.

Fast-forward to the year 2011:
=========
Coming this fall, on the New DuMont Network . . .
From Tim Minear, the writer and producer behind Firefly, Wonderfalls, and Die a Painful, Ironic Death . . .
(explosions) (people screaming and yelling)
(two women looking at each other like they might be thinking about kissing, maybe) (offscreen character line lifted from another episode entirely: "Oh my!")
Is it out there?
(climactic, very spoilery moment of pilot episode [which makes no sense out of context] [and will never be aired])
Oh, it's out there.
THIS OCTOBER
EVERY FRIDAY NIGHT
(UPON THE CONCLUSION OF PBA CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH PLAY)
Tim Minear's New Masterpiece Theater.
(line lifted from entirely different show: "WOOOOOOO!")
=========
I am -struck and -founded, both dumb-. Thanks. Won't need a haircut for a few more weeks, now.
Jon B., the whole board...
AW, DX you are the cutest guy in cutiehead land!

(Wait, I'm sorry, I don't get it-- what does this refer to?)
