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.

However, they skipped the $2,000 bill and put him back on the $3,000 bill.

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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

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.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

In Bitches.

Erin: It takes a long damn time for my pasta water to boil. Stupid slow electrons.

Polter-Cow: Show them porn. That'll excite 'em.

Erin: I tried, but the cat peed on all my atomic porn, and it's simply unusable.

Polter-Cow: The Cat Peed on All My Atomic Porn is my new band name.

Erin: You play sphinctronica, of course.

Gudanov: Don't blame the electrons for the poor performance of your water molecules. The electrons are doing their best, it's those big slacker molecules that are to blame.

Erin: Dude, don't diss the water.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Topic!Cindy in Bitches:

(speaking on the fact that the kindergarten orientation was absolutely useless because the current teacher will not be there next year)

I asked him if we could sacrifice a goat to get Ben's old teacher (from another school, at which this guy was also Principal).

He may have looked at me funny.

Why can't everyone just be a Mutant Enemy fan, to make me not have to watch my mouth. I don't have to worry about swearing nearly as much as I have to worry about spouting out 'verse and fandom-isms.
