Deena in Great Write, explaining a presently popular childrens' television character to the kidTV-challenged:
Mash a teletubby. Add LSD. Sprinkle with weird theremin like sound and glitter. Swirl in the air and provide cut out people figures to watch. That's a boobah.
In Minearverse:
Allyson: If you paid me 14 bucks and a pack of Marlboro's to do so, I'd tear your nose off with a plier and replace it with Silly Putty.
Toddson, in F2F:
I was talking to some friends and we decided that cicadas are the teenagers of the insect world - they're awkward, noisy, and think of nothing but sex. After all - they ARE 17!
Lilty Cash: I know. He made me feel like a complete failure in the person department.
Wolfram: My wife used to have a friend who did this. Now she's a mean ex-friend. You don't need friends to make you feel like a failure. That's why we have family.
In F2F, a discussion about arachnids:
Toddson - Just to add to the fun - were you aware that king crabs are also arachnids?
Jessica - Yes, but unless you live in Alaska, you'll pretty much only ever see the legs. Which look like food, not spiders. (Same with lobster -- whole, they look like the overgrown bugs they are. But their tails look like food.)
ita - Their flesh looks like food. Their tails look like a strange way to spend an afternoon.
Cause it's some kind of brilliant, Daniel's latest hit single:
Oh God, I've earwormed myself....
Welcome to the earworm,
we'll treat it like a game
we have all the filk you'll need
the tunes drive you insane.
The Buffistas you will find,
are there for friends in need
but if you got an earworm baby,
we're less cure than disease.
To the earworm,
Welcome to the earworm.
We can make you run and scream......
Allyson in Minearverse:
So. The dentist wants to break my jaw and fix my overbite. I'm thinking I could eBay the chance to break my jaw and make an assload of money off of fandom.
Erin in Bitches, where we're (surprise surprise!) talking about sex:
It's like porny Green Eggs and Ham: Did you do it on a bed? Or did you do it on the dead? Did you do it on the lam? Did you do it, Sam I am!
curse you, wee Jen!
ita's follow-up to Allyson in Minearverse:

Allyson, want to come to krav?
