Because if there's anything less porny than Anne Coulter, I don't want to meet it, ever.
Jayne: Well... I don't like the idea of someone hearin' what I'm thinkin'. Inara: No one likes the idea of hearing what you're thinking.

Tim, in his thread, defending the faithful:
I've made fandom jokes in the past -- but my feeling is until you've walked a mile in my spock ears, you haven't earned the right.

How sweet of Tim.
In a completely different direction, here's askye in, um, you know.
Way back on a SV mailing list I saw a post of someone's "great" story idea for Lex and Clark and how they could be together (and I assume with kids), her idea was:
Lex has his head cut off and reattached to a woman's body. That way Clark and Lex can have a normal relationship.

Rebecca Lizard in F2F:
Still, it doesn't matter, because the four-person rate has nothing to do with me because I'm not telling them four of us instead of two are going to be in the room on Saturday. I don't feel bad about that at all, either; I figure, when I went to Chicago with my mother and one of the women in the room right next to us brought a guy back to her room late one night and they had loud sex interspersed with loud sexy banter (the walls were very thin) until early morning-- I figure, you know, she didn't pay extra because she brought a guest back to the room one night, and in the extremely unlikely event that a hotel employee notices we suddenly have four people in our room instead of two I will easily and simply explain it by having sex with meara.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Aimee in Natter (responding to tommyrot's very succinct point):
So the whole Lilith thing came about because Genesis lacked a good editor?
See? In 5000 years, generations are going be completely confused because Anne Rice suffered from the same thing.
