'A Hole in the World'
This thread is for Buffista quotage. Posts that are profound, witty, or otherwise deserving of immortality go here.

In Minearverse, first NovaChild made me laugh:
If there's a nattery topic being nattered, of course people will natter in the thread in which the natter is being nattered, despite the existence of the more appropriate Natter.
then Tim came along, being all professional writer and all:
There's nothing the matter with natter in this thread or Natter, though the latter for natter is designed for the matter of natter, while any mad hatter might rather natter in the former.
I can't believe this didn't get more reaction in Minearverse:
Rick didn't use enough little 0s and stuff.
edited to clarify snarking at the 0s, not those who are reacting to the 0s.
Nutty, in Minearverse, the New Natter:
William Wallace was illiterate, IIRC. So NSM with the haggis-writing. Although he may have used condoms; they certainly do not lack for sheep-guts in Scotland.
Although all things considered that's a lot of effort for a night of lovin'. Points for it being adorned with a ribbon; nothing says fun like a pigtailed penis.
And I loved Rick's case history, too. Silly close-minded psychiatrists.
debg posted Stephl's funny from Bitches, but I didn't do a spit take until I read billytea's take on it:
Teppy:
Except....don't try to herd jelly. Nail it to a tree, instead.
billytea:
Gotcha. Jelly is to be seen and not herd.
Emily, in Boxed Set:
Help! I'm being oppressed! Just because I can't be bothered to find my glasses, doesn't meam zo fpm y rdfrdrtbr fodviddopm. See? I'm exactly the same person with or without!
(Edit: four rs, but only two ds, in rdfrdrtbr. How embarrassing.)
In (why not?) Minearverse:
Victor: I remember when fanfic was painted on rocks in the blood of a mastodon.
Man, you should have read the Grog/Urk-Son-of-Bearkiller slash.
Plei: Grog/Urk were totally OTP. IJS.
Polter-Cow in Minearverse (where all the cool kids hang out):
You know, I don't know that Jaye can really claim to be overeducated with only a bachelor's. If she gets a Ph.D. in philosophy (a doctor of philosophy in philosophy!), then we'll talk. Also, make out. Philosophically.
Ginger:
I can't watch Bush speeches. I'm always afraid I will become so deranged that I'll destroy my television.
Tim Minear: their names are Harrison and Rudy. Or as a pair, Shut The Fuck Up.
(I'm going to keep this person nameless in case s/he doesn't feel like being so blatant about the IRL name): My name is Sunil, which isn't unusual, just Indian.
(I'm going to keep this person nameless in case s/he doesn't feel like being so blatant about the IRL name)
He doesn't mind, it's okay. But thanks for the consideration.
Allyson, regarding the Subservient Chicken:
I think the subservient chicken is going to scare me to death in seven days, crawling out of my computer to get my floor all wet with stagnant well-water.
Bishop2:
Gail Berman doesn't deserve any 1000 balloons. She deserves 1000 swift kicks in the ass, or 1000 flat tires. Or 1000 root canals. Can we send her those?
