Xander: Am I right, Giles? Giles: I'm almost certain you're not. Though, to be fair, I haven't been listening.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

In Buffista Fic:

erikaj: Thursday100 is having the worst drabble challenge evah this week. A story that is one hundred word sentence, grammatical and exact. Why? And I think it can't be done, either. And ew. Signed, short, choppy sentences' bitch. (resignedly dusting semicolon.)

NovaChild: Well, Erika, you do raise a good point about the intense difficulty of constructing sentences of such an absurdedly high word count, especially if the labyrinthine sentence is required to tell a compelling story; however, I do believe (nay, I KNOW) that it is possible, perhaps not even especially difficult, to construct such a montrosity of a sentence so long as the writer is not especially interested in maintaining the interest of his or her glorious readers for an extended period, and is capable of using hundreds of scintillatingly lusciously luxurious adjectives and equally attractive adverbs with every conceivable noun.

All is well that ends in pizza.

ita, in Bitches:

I've been cute. I probably will be cute again.

As long as I still get to punch people's faces in, I suppose that's fine.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

Brenda M in Bitches:

ION, the dog chewed up a bath bomb.

This was discovered via her suspiciously fragrant breath.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

Holli, in Natter, with all the context required:

Now I'm envisioning Zombie Douglas Adams. "Towellllllssss..."

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

In The Jossverse In Other Media:

Theodosia: Turning to diamond strikes me as a dubious superpower.

Hec: Not if you're fighting The Glass Baron!

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

In Spoilers, random speculations:

Victor: Spike could be Joss' Jay & Silent Bob!

Amych: Fine, but why did he have to be Jay?

Dude, I am SO pitching a "Moore and Hitchens run from Killer Frost" reality show next fall. (The frost will be played by Ann Coulter.)

'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"

Tommyrot:

The first time I went to The Mall of America, I was all prepared to make fun of it. But once I got there, I couldn't do it. I was just overwhelmed. I wanted to say to the mall's creators, "OK, you win. You and your followers are obviously far more powerfull than me and others like me."

Jessica, in Movies:

Aimee, it is a well-known scientific fact that natural disasters in action movies approach at a maxmum speed of 99% of however fast the stars are running away from it.

Hey. New board.

Discussion in movies about a stupid anti-plot twist article. Fun begins with...

Jessica: No, no, you're missing the point -- plot twists are bad.

Sean K: What, he wants all filmmakers to be Ernest Hemmingway?

"The hero walked down the hall toward the door. He lifted his right hand and turned the handle. He pushed the door open. There were no surprises on the other side of the door."

Jessica: Yeah! Now that's a story I can get emotionally involved in!

JohnSweden: Nice crisp prose, too.

tommyrot: I don't know... I was getting kinda freaked out for a while, wondering if the door would open or if there were any surprises behind the door. The story really should have mentioned the lack of surprises and the opening of the door first.

Thomash: Don't forget the walking part, that was my favorite.

Aimée: Personally, I like how he walked with NO expectations of anything happening.

Damn, that's Fellini-esque film right there.

tommyrot: Kinda like Beckett too.

bon bon: There are no surprises in this post.

hayden: (falling out of chair in shock)
