Ah, well. C'est la Wolf Blitzer.
Saffron: But we've been wed. Aren't we to become one flesh? Mal: Well, no, uh... We're still two fleshes here, and I think that your flesh ought to sleep somewhere else.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

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

If it weren't for these Mars rovers, my entire vanity Google would consist of reprints of Dogs In Elk. As it is, Dogs in Elk accounts for 90%.

Matt the Bruins Fan responding to a recent news event:
Well, I'm relieved to hear the officer wasn't harmed while electrocuting septagenarians in a nursing home. I can sleep peacefully tonight knowing that Officer McZappy is making the world safe from roving geriatric gangs.

What is even happening?
Liese: Ha. Look at me with the protesting and running, and the people doing my arguing for me, even when I wasn't. Yay Buffistas.

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
Emily: I deduced that the Red Sox must have won when the screaming and honking began directly outside my bedroom window at about midnight. What the fuck is wrong with people, anyway? Houses mean people trying to sleep, assholes.

Baseball discussion in Natter turns to the Curse of the Bambino
ita: I'd ask what's a Bambino, but then someone might tell me, and I'd be forced to skim over the answer, because it's indubitably baseball.
(four posts explain Bambino)
Burrell: Poor ita. She may not have asked for an answer, but she sure got one. Er, I mean 4.
Kat: And this, Burrell, is the Curse of the Buffistas.

In Natter. To decimate:
Sean: Well, if my Roman history teacher is to be believed, they would line up the opposing, defeated army, and count down the line.... 1, 2, 3, 4... and every time they got to ten, GACK! Dead.
Katie M: Well, that's gonna lead to line-shuffling. ("Hey, I think Flavius doesn't count so good. Flavius! Stand over here!")
ita: Eenie meenie mynie, FUCKED.

LIMA, Peru (Reuters) - A Russian tourist was struck by lightning and killed on the summit of Huayna Picchu, the imposing mountain that rises behind Peru's famous Inca citadel Machu Picchu, police and officials said on Tuesday.
You know, gods can get tired of waiting for their human sacrifices. I mean, you hear promises and promises, the locals say they'll get right on putting the sacrifices back on a regular schedule, but do they follow through? No. So a god has to get proactive and serves himself up a bit of tourist flambe to tide him over.

I had to give up donating blood, because of a similar deal. I can donate, but it puts me into shock afterwards. Serious: sit me down, feed me, don't let me walk away, just put me to bed for the rest of the day. So, I quit. It's not that I think it's going to harm me, my rational brain says, "what's the big deal?" It's that little lizard stuck down in the bottom? He's fucking small. You take that much blood from him, you could turn him into a vampire licking your finger where they stole a drop to test your iron content. He knows it, and he knows he's in control of your responses. So, he runs like hell when he sees the needle coming. And you go right along with him, will-you, nill-you.
