Gus: Hey! My code is what brings all the boys to my yard.
Wait.
All you boys! Getoffamy lawn!
Jayne (Husband): Oh, I think you might wanna reconsider that last part. See, I married me a powerful ugly creature. Mal (Wife): How can you say that? How can you shame me in front of new people? Jayne (Husband): If I could make you purtier, I would. Mal (Wife): You are not the man I met a year ago.

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

::takes off kerfuffle shoes, with no little regret::
Steph L:
Missy, kerfluffle shoes are so Out for autumn fashions. You best give them to Goodwill.
ita:
I hate Autumn fashion. As soon as the Winter brouhaha boots are in stores, I'm all over them. In the meanwhile I have to make do.
Betsy HP:
On the other hand, my arch-support brogans of whining complement any outfit.
ita:
For those with plantar fasciitis of the soul?
Steph L.:
I love my sandals of false superiority, and I intend to wear them until it's so cold that my toes can't stand it any more.
Betsy HP:
Exactly. My soul is all tired and worn-out and fallen.

cass: Puppycat keeps stealing my credit card from my desk and tries to run into the living room with it. Like she thinks she can order things out of catalogs or something. I keep reminding her that she Has No Thumbs. She keeps reminding me that she is very cute but really not all that bright.

billytea: 1. Wolf packs are hierarchical, so there'll always be a wolf who's last on the totem pole. If they drove off the existing omega wolf, then whoever was second-last will just find themselves in last place. In a pack of two wolves, whichever one isn't the alpha will be the omega. By this logic, I will henceforth refer to the risen Christ as the Lone Wolf, as he is the alpha and the omega.

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
lisah in Bureaucracy:
I was trying to figure out why Beep Me has always seemed more official to me. It's because it's got "Apocalypse" in the title.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Polter-Cow brings us the Disney weather forecast, in Natter:
No...one...
Rains like Gaston
Shatters panes like Gaston
No one shames all the South's hurricanes like Gaston

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Nutty brings us a geography lesson, in Natter:
I am always a little unclear on why the collective world/map-writers respect some sensitive points of language and ignore others. Like, Cote d'Ivoire clearly kept insisting until everybody got it the way they wanted it, but the Germans gave up and said, Deutschland, Allemagne, Germany -- whatever! Just trade with us.

The status is NOT quo.
Our long-absent, much-missed Aimee, getting right back into the swing of things in Bitches:
I would be very upset if my vibrator was also a food chopper. I would be more upset if I found out by accident.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
Betsy, critiquing P-C's mad bachelor culinary skilz, yo, in Bitches:
I mean, seriously, a dedicated pizza appliance that rotates the pizza under the heat source? That's one cat's-whisker short of the appliance that electrocutes your hot dogs for you.

I can't even.
Nutty in Natter, context be damned:
I need to shut up now or the karma gods will catch GWB in the oval office getting blown by someone named Nooty.
