Heather Alayne in Natter, responding to a story of a pharmacist who refused to fill a prescription for birth control pills:
It would be interesting to see what would happen if everyone engaged in this kind of occupational activism.
"I'm sorry I can't bring you another cheesecake, I believe that our bodies are our temples and cheesecake is bad for you."
"I'm a vegetarian so I won't be ringing up that filet in your cart."
"I believe SUV's are killing our environment. I refuse to sell you $50 in gas."
ita: Sometimes, if a thing comes to easily, we don't value it. If you need to block the whole board, the investment of doing it one poster at a time will be reward in and of itself.

Aimee in Natter:
"Hi. I'm Aimee. Welcome to The Gap."
"Hi. I'm Orlando Bloom."
"Yes, I know."
"Anyway, I'd like to buy some pants."
"No."
"I'm sorry?"
"No. I can not sell you pants."
"Jeans, khakis, trousers?"
"No."
"Why?"
"I don't believe that hot guys that I lust after should ever wear pants. Expecially around me. It is against my beliefs that hot guys that I lust after wear anything that covers what God gave you and intended for me to worship."
"Okay, guess I'll have to go to Abercrombie."
"Yeah, they believe as I do. No pants."
"Can I wear a skirt?"
"Yes. As long as you wear this eyeliner."
"You yanks are nuts. Much easier in Britian."
"I know. And to think we left all those years ago."

I need to find a Chick-Fil-A and go bang on their doors one Sunday: "Dammit! GOD WANTS ME TO HAVE LUNCH!"
Deena: Aidan is watching Elmo. Elmo may be evil, but Aidan's getting the most insane glee out of it. He screams like a girl at her first rock concert every time Elmo starts to sing his song.

"Hey-hey, Boo-Boo! Let's take out Ranger Smith tonight with this aught-20 I got at the local gun show!" "Sure thing, Yogi!"
Jessica:
There's an old New Yorker cartoon that has the founding fathers carrying wall-mounted bear arms while writing the Bill of Rights, and one says "Well at least there's no way this one can be misinterpreted..."
last post is out of order so it makes sense in context
