'Get It Done'
This thread is for Buffista quotage. Posts that are profound, witty, or otherwise deserving of immortality go here. This is also Shrift's source for the BRQG, so be aware that if your words end up here, they'll also end up there. Finally, please note which thread spawned the quotage and please white-out anything that might be spoilery to Un-Americans.
Steph L: Cicadas don't eat anything. Not people, not vegetation. Basically, they hang out and then die. In very very large numbers.
Sean K: Maybe they would last longer if they at least had a snack every now and then.
Jessica: DON'T ENCOURAGE THEM.
Miracleman: "Jeez, I mean...seventeen years. Wow. You look...well...honestly? You look a little peaked. You want a sandwich? Some chips? A field of corn?
"Just a little nosh to get some color back?"
Besty HP in Natter:
Steve McQueen treated his terminal cancer with coffee enemas. He died.
Jessica in F2F:
I shall be called Bob (short for Kate). You shall know me by my liking of carrots.
Katerina Bee:
I was once waiting at a bus stop and a homeless guy said to me, "My hobby is KILLIN'." Fortunately, he immediately lost interest in me and wandered off to berate a telephone pole or something.
Connie Neal, in the Angel thread:
"WB execs, ptui, we shall speak no more of them."
Topic!Cindy:
I can't believe people don't know MacArthur Park. I can't believe someone wrote it, and I can't believe more than one singer has recorded it either, but that's beside the point.
tommyrot:
Well, it's not so much the loss of the cake, but the fact that I'll never have that recipe again. That's the tragic part.
The joke was probably obvious, but I almost choked:
carriwitchet: But instead, could somebody please explain to me why the word fish is almost always included after the word tuna.
tommyrot: To avoid confusion with the tuna cow.
billytea: To distinguish it for the benefit of cultures whose diet includes the tuna weasel.
From the Angel thread (spoiler fonted for UnAms)
Sheryl: Oh, and please don't kill Wes.(Not that that's gonna make a difference to anyone)
billytea: No, really it does. I'm touched by your plea, and promise not to kill Wes.
connie neil: As if he has any power. I'm already planning Wes' eulogy. It's gonna be a goody. "See? Watcher. He did a paper." Or however that line went.
billytea: Hey, I have the power not to kill Wes. I can't speak for anyone else, but there's always leading by example.
Me: "See how I didn't kill Wes there? Now you try it."
Joss: "...Oops."
Polter-Cow in Angel:
It's all falling into place. Of course, that place is nowhere near this place.
Oh, I can't take credit for that. That was Jane Espenson.
