Big stop just to renew your license to companion. Can I use companion as a verb?

No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti

With all that whitefont, it looks like PMM posted an online production of 4' 13".

Betsy's post is actually much funnier without context, but ita's coinage fits in here too -- doodaddoo.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Typo Boy, in literary:

In my experince any SF story that mentions chaos theory will have to be loved on some grounds other than good science, if it is to be loved at all.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

"I hate that fanfic is so ridiculed, though; I mean, I know there's an awful lot of rubbish, and I know that the whole fandom thing is by its nature exclusive, but I'm still so bloody excited about this medium, and still thoroughly delighted by the proliferation of good writing that is out there. It pisses me off that the genre is looked down upon. I understand it, but it pisses me off. And ditto LJ/blog culture, actually - by its nature it's incredibly insular and specific, but it's also a really vibrant and fascinating form of communication, and within my limited experience it's shown itself a terrific forum for debate about literary style and technique and blahblahblah pretentiouscakes.

But then, I am living in my parents' basement, in the manner of NotSuave!Xander. So possibly I should just shut the fuck up. And get back to writing my assignment. Right. Fine.

Oh! Before I go - did we ever find any Magneto/Wolverine? "

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Oooh! COMM me, baby! mwah! (in a surprised-but-flattered fashion)

Madrigal Costello in Firefly

Whenever I get a call for "Mr. Costello" I get to honestly answer that he died in 1928, so while I could put him on the phone, he'd be very, very quiet.

(Trimmed, regretfully, because I decided that I couldn't really bring the whole damned thread.)

Comparative Theology, Buffista-style (in Firefly)

Betsy Hanes Perry Hey, there's a question: Can you only commit heresy if you're a member of the group in question? I mean, for instance, if I believe that Muhammad was God rather than a prophet, I'm a Christian heretic, but I'm not a Moslem heretic, right?

billytea : You're a Muslim heretic with bells on and all the trimmings. Islam believes very firmly that Muhammad was nothing but a man. (The greatest of the prophets, but still a man.)

Betsy Hanes Perry No. I'm absolutely WRONG by Muslim standards, I don't doubt that. The question is, can they consider me a heretic if I was never a Muslim in the first place?
Nutty : I think you can only be a heretic in the religion in which you claim membership. Cause, I mean, if I got excommunicated by the United Church of Twinkie Worshippers, I wouldn't give a shit, right? But if I were a member of the Church, and then got excommunicated, I would be devastated.

And also hungry.

Then again, if the United Church of Twinkie Worshippers decided to burn me at the stake, it wouldn't matter whether I was a believer or not. I would still be crispy and dead.

Don't like seventies hair. Demonic. Must be vanquished. Need a seventies hair slayer. Armed with clippers and scissors.

Jacqueline Zahas on No. Cal. "culture":

It actually just occurred to me a couple of nights ago what a weird place the Bay Area is, where you can go into any ratty-ass little crack-mart corner market in any grubby neighborhood, looking for booze, and come out with a bottle of very nice wine.

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

victor:

I've always thought we should refer to the govenor as the "Guber."

billytea:

You just want to be able to say things like "Like any of that's enough to fight the Dark Guber-- nator."
