'Objects In Space'
This thread is for Buffista quotage. Posts that are profound, witty, or otherwise deserving of immortality go here. This is also Shrift's source for the BRQG, so be aware that if your words end up here, they'll also end up there. Finally, please note which thread spawned the quotage and please white-out anything that might be spoilery to Un-Americans.
Case in point, from Bitches:
Daniel C. Jensen:
They'll COMM you when you talk about the bar,
They'll COMM you when you talk about your car,
They'll COMM you when your eyes you poke with sticks
They'll COMM you when you eat a wheatabix.
So I would not post here when you're bombed,
'Cause anybody can get COMMed.
Calli: Do roaches freak out cats? My last cat just sort of looked at them like they were a tv show she couldn't be bothered to turn off, and then went back to licking herself.

Kristin has changed her tag back to the tag she changed to last night before changing back to the tag she had before she changed.

P-C, you are lucky we love you, cause that sentence? Well, words should not be abused thusly.
Hec, with truer words never spoken:
The Pogues? We should always talk about the Pogues. Whenever we're not talking about the Pogues, it's probably a mistake.

if they're really elves, shouldn't they be in trees making cookies?

What do you think lembas is?
This is slightly cheating, but it was on Buffista-owned property...
Cass in ALL ASSCAPS ALL THE TIME!!!!! THE POLITICS THREAD!!!!! (please don't ask)
I typed "shrift key" so many times I expected my post to slounge and look for the HoYay.
Aimée: My MIL is nuts. She sent me an email that basically said, "Joe couldn't suckle when he was born so they took an X-ray of his throat and that fixed it. His father had it, too. It's rare and the 2 doctors I asked have no idea what I'm talking about but tell your OB and your pediatrician that the magic x-ray machine fixes this thing I do not know what it's called."
amych: It explains a lot, really. The whole mutant powers thing, all of it.
The Splendiferous Sean K: Aimee, is she getting nuttier?
Aimée: Totally. Tomorrow, I'll get an email that Joe was really a girl when he was born but the magic MRI machine grew him a penis.
Cass: So is the magic MRI machine available for rental stuff?
Aimée: I'll find out. It might have clicked 3 times and gone back to Oz.
Cass: If it's only good for three times, well I have batteries that last longer.
Aimee, is she getting nuttier?
(That was me)
I might as well mention this here -- one thing that will keep babies from suckling correctly is a short tendon in the front of the tongue, which is often referred to as being tongue-tied. The correction for this is a teeny cut at the underside of the tongue, which tends to upset new parents a whole lot, and I've heard of doctors advised to take the baby out of the room to do it. It wouldn't surprise me if Joe-Mom had a pediatrician who told her he was taking Baby!Joe to "get X-rayed", made the little nick, waited a few minutes for the bleeding to stop, and brought little Suckling!Enabled!Baby!Joe back to her.
Or maybe she's just getting nuttier.
