Buffy: Where are the burgers? Riley: Yeah man, I'm starving. Cow me. Xander: I'd love to make with the moo but the fire's not cooperating.

'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"

JohnSweden on listening to the Buffista-Americans do a play-by-play on the Vice Presidential Debate:

So we all watched a flawed protagonist terrorized by a horrible undead monster. The protagonist ran around ineffectually and failed to save his friends and family while the monster destroyed and killed much that he held dear and brought the country to ruin.

I was at Shaun of the Dead. What were you guys watching?

erikaj, on pessimism about the coming election:

I worry too. But I have to feel all "They can't take the sky from me," right now. Because if They win, I'll have forever to be depressed and must pace myself.

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

billytea: Dick Cheney, ladies and gentlemen. A heartbeat away from the Presidency, and a cheese fry away from God.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Cass in BITCHES:

Oh and highlight of the afternoon while talking to my mom: "Oh it could have been worse, like the duck necrophilia." And then having to explain the gay duck necrophilia.

Being a Buffista... It's not all glitter and tiaras...

The ensuing round of nostalgia for gay mallard snuff porn is pretty funny too

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm just the middleman, in Natter:

Hec: I did get pretty choked up reading Roald Dahl's short story "The Boy Who Talked To Animals" to Emmett last night. It brought both billytea and ita to mind.

ita: I thought I'd read all the Dahl out there, but I can't imagine this story for the life of me.

bt: It must be the one with the monologue of this guy saying "See that animal over there? That one could easily kick your ass. And that one? So gonna kick your ass. Wouldn't even break a sweat. Now, these ones here may look small, but don't be fooled. Singly or in groups, they're just itching to give you an ass-kickin'."

Hey. New board.

Awwww. I love the real version of that story. Though not nearly as funny as billytea's version...

(if it wasn't clarified in Natter, it's one of the many stories in "The Wonderful Tale of Henry Sugar and Other Stories" though that title is from memory and may be approximate)

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

From Minearverse:

NovaChild: Long ago, some rather girly girl drew a beautiful pastel mural of a unicorn, very similar to the vomit-inducing logos on that page. The next year, however, somebody with much hatred of the mural inhabited the room. Being a rather standard member of Ricketts House, the dorm I call home, he had a fairly obnoxious sense of humor, so he took a bottle of spray paint and converted the pastel horn into an extremely large black phallus, underneath with he sprawled the word "Dick-corn."

KristinT: You have no unicorns in your heart.

DavidS: Maybe a dick-corn.

aurelia: So the next revision will make it a eunichorn?

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

Cindy demonstrates mastery of whitefont.

ita: I've seen some masterful whitefont, where the poster managed to leave behind complete sentences with a completely different meaning to what the full sentences read.

I wish I were that good.

Topic!Cindy: ita could probably be that good if she wanted. She is so smart, it is scary.

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan

Bleh. Stupid double windows made me miss a posting of the COMM I wanted to post.

I have no idea what to put in here now.

ita is going to be a tree for Halloween.

From Movies:

Katie M:

I'm a Farscape fan. Honestly, I don't need any more puppet sex in my life.

Jessica:

I'm a Farscape fan who's seen Avenue Q and Meet the Feebles. I'm just impressed that there's puppet sex out there I haven't seen yet.
