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

KristinT, on the likely outcome of having to take DayQuil in the middle of her teaching day:

"And so the end of Midsummer Night's Dream, like many Shakespearean comedies, ends in multiple weddings and happily ever after. In this case, the addition of the fairies makes it...Oooo SHINY!"

crickets

"Ummm...Ms. T.? Why are you under that desk?"

"I think I saw a fairy! Or a quarter, not sure. But now that I'm down here, I'm having a hard time getting up again. Everyone do a vocab exercise or something."

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

tommyrot, in Natter:

Major salad fiasco!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Madrigal Costello: Ezzle would be an Australian gangsta-rapper, probably have a song about pouring a 40 and vegemite on a homie's grave.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Gus screws with someone's mind:

A fellow came up as I was leaving the grocery store today. He was trying to sell some kind of raffle ticket. I spoke to him in Bantu. He tried louder English. I responded with a shrug. He thrust the tickets at me and shook them as he loudly announced, "Buy! You buy. You buy!"

So, I gave him the big smile and said "Bye!" and waved as I left.

These are the moments one lives for.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Allyson in Firefly, on the multi-faceted talents of the Buffistas:

We send rocket ships to Mars, we teach courses on How to Kill People, we write books on Bubblegum Pop. We are in NASA, we teach Jr. High, we're on Jeopardy, we're writing for television. We're adding words to the Oxford Dictionary RIGHT NOW, and inserting sublimal messages in the New York Times Arts and Leisure section. We've infiltrated the highest levels of government. We're set to take over the world, but alas, we are lazy and shirking our world-take-over plans by posting here.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

And DX's followup to the above:

Procrastination is a harsh mistress.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Raquel, in natter:

So I guess it depends on the size of your flag and the length of your pole.

As does so much in life.

Nutty, in Minearverse:

One sort of wants to lock Heinlein and Ayn Rand into a squash court, armed with nothing but silly string and matches, and see who kills whom.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Also Nutty, also Minearverse, same post.

Oh please, Bobby, not the joys of market capitalism again! You know how that always messes up the topcoat on my nail polish.
