Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Betsy, in Natter:

Any moment now, Shrift will start writing G&G slash.

Gallant always uses a condom.

Goofus goes into public restrooms and takes on all comers with bloodplay.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I think that was my first COMM quote! Even though it was as the straight man, I'm still all choked up.

hip deep in pie

I find that hard to believe, Jon. That it's your first COMM.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I did a search. UNTRUE.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

BHP in Natter:

I stopped attending one Episcopal church because I realized that spending every Sunday in a tearing rage and planning to seek out and kill every single composer in the Maranatha catalogue was not necessarily compatible with Christian charity.

Let me just say that popularity with people on public transportation does not equal literary respect. --Jesse

Buying a book?

How is this possible? "Book" is a collective noun. Next you'll be buying "a" pea.

Allyson, Natter, on job-hunting:

Trying to work out how I heard that they were looking for a fundraiser. "So I was chatting about the tenderness of capybara hair and sneering as a metaphor for vampire homosexuality at a BtVS message board one Saturday morning, and someone mentioned you needed a new fundraiser."

'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"

Caroma, in Angel Quotes, talking about non-spoilery ways to fine tune the show:

As for Gunn, the writers need to be tied down in front of a continuous playing of 'The Best Moments of Meldrick Lewis' from HOMICIDE, to see how to write a memorable, witty, brave, conflicted black man. They have a lot in common- -both from poor families, interested in justice, good teammates but not willing to put up with any dissing from the others, not too interested in what little rules they have to break to get there, decent and honorable and yet quite imperfect.
