Miracleman, in Bitches, re: the Empress at work:

My wife.

I think I'll fear her.

call the police

Gudanov:

I don't like hanging laundry, I prefer the just-throw-it-in-the-dryer approach instead. Plus, way back in the day of hanging laundry in the backyard, the dogs would steal my underwear and play tug-of-war with it.

Moments later, he adds in another post:

The underwear in the laundry, not the underwear I was wearing.

amych:

Darn. Just when I was imagining the old Coppertone ads.

Bat-love as only the Buffistas could express it....

Miracleman:

Alfred's one that they messed around with when it would be convenient.

DXMachina:

He was also dead for a while back in the sixties.

Frankenbuddha:

Oh right. And he was also a villain for a while after that, wasn't he?

amych:

He came back wrong.

Steph L.:

What, did he fuck Two-Face?

MFNLaw in Minearverse:

Hehe. The new b.org motto: We WILL make a slave of you at some point. For now, just enjoy the porn.

[note to shrift: Is there any way to post a picture on the BRQG? Allyson has this post in Natter, and it's hurting me, but it would make no sense in COMM/BRQG, as it is just a link to a photo (which is hurting me more).]

Allyson: I think we should let Darwin sort this shit out.

erika, showing why she is the dark goddess in Bitches:

Hi...I got to impress local Buffy fans with my knowing of OMWF lyrics. "Wow, you know all of them!" some woman said. "I'm a buffista. I know everything." I said. And I got to wear my goth shirt.

amych in comics thread:

This is the shit that ruined Snuffleupagus, and don't think I'm not still bitter.

Jesse: I love when my vague half knowledge about things can be fleshed out.

In Natter:

Nilly:

Ruth (the one who was the daughter-in-law of Naomi, and followed her back from Moav, and married Boaz) was a great-great-grandmother of David, so an ancestor of him, as well. And I guess it can be tracked down pretty much until the sons of Jacob (the tribe of Yehuda, or, well, Judas), and therefore all the way back to Noah or even to Adam and Eve.

Wolfram:

the tribe of Yehuda, or, well, Judas...

I think it's Judah, not Judas.

Nilly:

Then why is the guy who betrayed Jesus, who has the same name (Yehuda), called Judas?

Wolfram:

I don't know. Maybe that's the Greek version?

Trudy Booth:

Then why is the guy who betrayed Jesus, who has the same name (Yehuda), called Judas?

Because those people only had three or four names between them and we had to distinguish them somehow?

Seriously. Mary? c'mon...

amych:

Ah. So it's like Hec and Knut.

Nilly:

Maybe that's the Greek version?

Actually, that makes sense. They liked the whole "let's add 's' to end of names", IIRC.

Wolfram:

Like Angelus.

DX Machina:

So his full name was Judas the Difficult?

Nilly:

Like Angelus.

Manservant Jahecubus.
