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.
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.
And DX's followup to the above:

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.
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.
In Natter:
Gus: Children come from a woman. The woman who bore the child came from a woman. This is the indisputable line.
Nonian: Gus, I have never thought of geneology in this way before, but I find rather like it. Sort of like Buffy, for geneology.
ita: Plus mitochondria.
Sure, they're no midichlorians, but that's kinda a plus.
Ginger cracks my shit up:
I gave up caffeine once for about six months. Then I had a sudden revelation that I had not actually been awake for six months.
