Trudy beat me to it, damnit; I was just coming in to COMM that.

Daniel C. Jensen , memorializing the end of the Deathmatches and the winding down of the Buffy Quotables thread:
Alas, poor Buffy quotes! I knew it, Buffistas: a place
of infinite lines, of most excellent contest: it hath
borne me through rerun hell for umpteen times; and now,
how abhorred in my imagination it is! my gorge rims at
it. Here hung those quips that I have dissed I know
not how oft. Where be your Giles now? your
Willows? your songs? your flashes of brilliance,
that were wont to set the phoenix on a roar? Not one
quote now, to mock your own ending? quite dejected?
Now get you to buraucracy, and tell them, let
them post an inch thick, to this ending we must
come; make them laugh at that.
Vandalisimo in the Mineaverse:
I'm off to drown my sorrows. I can do some drowning for the rest of you, too. Believe me, by the end of the night I'll have people toasting "To Tim!" and "Fuck Fox!". They may not know why they're doing it, but damn it, they'll be doing it anyway.
Leather pants are on, by the way. In honor of Angelus. Or...Dick Cheney? Either way, I'm feeling evil and spicey.
Tim Minear: Tomorrow morning I'm gonna sit down and figure out exactly what Fox needs in terms of what's missing from their scripted programming. No joke. I'll approach it scientifically and specifically. I'll create the hit pilot with franchise legs that will allow them to build big in the scripted area in such a way that they'll be able to relax a little and nurture slower building shows. Something that would give them some stability. That's what I'll create.
Then I'll sell it ABC.
Typo Boy's tag: SNAFU - Situation Normal, All Foxed Up
Cashmere: I'm sick of seeing media blitz advertising for Who Wants to Survive Being Married to My Big, Fat, Ambiguously Gay Father Who Might Be a Millionaire. I'm done. Networks have killed my hopes for the last fucking time.
Allyson: Never wrap your dog in cheese.

Allyson: Know what? Ima recap it TWoP style.
Tim: I think you should do a funny one instead.

Typo Boy filks: Julie Andrews thing
Man Slash and Fem Slash and tight leather corsets
Chattering tchotchkes and spaceships with horses
vampire beagles and Spike tied with string
this is our Julie Andrews thing
chocolate, and goats, sharp knives and roses
Books and knitting and blood and nude poses
Snarky deathmatches and warm cyberhugs
These are all gifts from buffista lugs
When the fox bites, when the frog kicks,
when the networks drive me mad
I simply remember these buffista things.
And then I dont feeel sooo baaad
