Thanks Tommyrot. I feel very well informed by you.
Of course the information makes me want to open a vein, but still...informed.
Mal: You are very much lacking in imagination. Zoe: I imagine that's so, sir.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Betsy: Ooh! I know where to get a trebuchet!

Lyra Jane: (Office paranoia; Are you the Brynn who sits right across from me at work and just went for a walk? If so, hi, and let us never speak of it again.)

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Emily - I'm sorry, what did I miss? Is someone getting married in base 8?
Polter-Cow - Dude, once you get to base 8, you'd damn well better be married.

Natter:
msbelle: I CAN'T FIND MY CELLPHONE! It's been almost 24 hours since I remember seeing it! ACK!
Daniel C. Jensen: Call it.
Betsy HP: Heads.
Polter-Cow: Who do you think you are, Betsy, Rosencrantz?

Theodosia: Tip #1 for Determining if your Doctor is an ENT or an Ent: He says, "Hoom Hoom" instead of "Hmmmmmm."
Theodosia: Tip #2 for Determining if your Doctor is an ENT or an Ent: He keeps suggesting you get vaccinated for Dutch Elm Disease "just in case."
Kathy Anstrom: Tip #3: He says he's married, but he's conveniently lost her, so he hits on you.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
The funny and charming Tom W on his Buffista beginnings in Natter:
Nora has already revealed my F2F origin story, although she left out the part where I was bitten by a radioactive chipmunk and blah blah blah fight crime.
I stumbled into TT following one of Salon's story links. Sometime during S4 I think. I lurked briefly, de-lurked, re-lurked (apparently posting "Angle is teh suck" 50 times in a row isn't considered good form), de-lurked again, briefly re-lurked after my 50,000 word essay (split over 100 posts) "Brief thoughts by a learned gentleman on the proposition that Angle is teh suck" was not as well received as had been anticipated, then de-lurked for a final time. The rest is, as they say, geography.

deb: in Paris, there's a guy who makes and sells his own cinnamon ice cream
Betsy:
Yeah? Well, in Vienna, there's ten pretty women
And a shoulder where Death comes to cry.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Heh. I considered COMMing Betsy on that, Cindy, but it occurred to me that it would have been emotionally dishonest; as fond as I am of Leonard Cohen, he simply isn't cinnamon ice cream in Paris on a park bench at the Luxembourg.
