The status is NOT quo.

Gus in "Firefly":

For the record, the forms of the word Nilly seem to be Nilly, Nilly'd, Nillyer, Nillyest, Nillying, Nillyist, Nillyfied, and the rare, possibly extinct Nillyator.

You will see these, willy-nilly.

COMMing this post from Ginger ...

Thanks, Tina, for Nillying Nilly's Nilly.

Because of what DavidS said,

What a great sentence. It looks nonsensical, but as is generally the case among the Buffista, it is not.

and just because it made me smile.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Daniel in Bitches: It felt good being lavendar for a minute. But then this board brings that out in a guy.

I can't even.

La Nutty in Natter. We don't need no steenking context:

Friends don't let friends look like Farrah Fawcett-Majors. That goes double if you're a man, and triple if you're the ruthless ruler of the known world.

Daniel C. Jensen

I hear tell a city council meeting got so worked up about snowbound fire plugs once that a member stood up and proposed that nearby fire plugs should be cleared two weeks before any fire.

It was voted on immediately and passed.

Daniel, I didn't know there was a city outside Sang Sacre, run by Buffistas!

DxMachina

Cindy, I think you missed the part about it being voted on immediately...

I'm trying to guess the context and all I can come up with is Khan. KHAAAANNNN!

DavidS says something profound in Angel:

I feel like people who are obsessing with Lorne as the Mole Of Evil may possibly have misplaced their frontal lobes deep in the cloaca of Pod!Giles.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Box Set starts out comparing series, again:

Katie M:

Actually, Farscape managed to hang on to a pretty good arc/standalone balance right up to the end, I think.

Consuela:

Pretty much, more so than Angel, I think. But the characters remember, and the characterization evolves over time (unlike, for instance, Stargate *g*).

Katie M:

Hey! Daniel's hair is much shorter than it used to be.

Consuela:

Thank god, or I'd never know what season it was.
... actually, even that doesn't help that much, just gives me a rough estimate of "early" or "late". ::shrugs::
Clearly the makeup & costuming people need to learn the fun of changing hairstyles to match the character's emotional states, like on Farscape. S2 Crazy!Hair, S4 Glamour Eyebrows, and so forth.

JenP:

Yuh-huh. And Jack's is much grayer. They totally evolve. Sheesh.

Katie M:

And Jack had that really hot period, S3-5!
To be fair, there has been some character development, particularly when it comes to Daniel. (Jack too, but as Jack's character development is at least somewhat tied to a decrease in IQ, I try to ignore it as much as possible.)

Emily:

And Teal'c's face slowly loses that I-smell-something-foul look.

Katie M:

Yes! Which CJ must have been incredibly grateful for.

ita :

Indeed.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

Sue, in Natter:

Context? You must be joking.

Is anyone else picturing Gus in a milkmaid outfit right now?
