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.
River: They weren't cows inside. They were waiting to be, but they forgot. Now they see the sky and they remember what they are. Mal: Is it bad that what she said made perfect sense to me?

What is even happening?

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.

In BBaBB:
Ginger: Okay, who put up "Riley's Bitches?" Surely that's an oxymoron.
amych: Apparently not: P.M. Marcontell "Spike's Bitches 20: We'll catch the Natterers yet." Nov 17, 2004 6:44:53 pm PST
etclarify: Plei didn't put the thread up -- it's temporary because DX and I screwed up making a new tech thread -- but the cross-thread x-post makes me giggle.
P.M. Marcontell: Dude, I was being PRACTICAL.
I am still here laughing my ass off about the thread title. And, natch, the post count.
It was foretold!
Tom Scola: ...and it's gone. I'm tempted to go and put it back.
DXMachina: Did you delete it, or just set the archive flag? That didn't occur to me until after it disappeared.
Tom Scola: I didn't delete it. I figured that someone else did.
Daniel C. Jensen: It dissapeared like Riley, into the black helicopter on a dark Buffista night.

amych, in Bitches, discussing Angelus' taste in women
I don't think it counts as necrophilia if you're the dead one.

If I only had a brain...
Beej:
We get a bi-annual flying termite infestation which is loads of fun.
About a thousand of them (not exaggerating) swarm up from under my fridge and begin the mating dance-o-lurve. There's the squirming and the grunting, but the most annoying part is that they drop their gossamer wings all over the damn place. Teeny tiny examples of God's miracle of flight stuck to the bottom of my feet, my clothes and the floor with a kind of cosmic glue that makes vacuuming only minorly useful.

Polter-Cow theorizes about Nilly's ability to Nilly in "Natter":
I have a feeling Nilly, though, just has the entire board in her head and brainGoogles.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Right, I've finished my lunch, time to COMM what must be COMM'd. In Natter:
Gud: I've found toddlers to be the most destructive.
Nilly: Yeah, but you can't spray them with pesticide, shouting "Die, die already! Drown in the stuff if it doesn't kill you with its poison, die!" like you can do with roaches.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.
Kristin T. in Natter: My house is full of lethal cuteness that has yet to be housetrained.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
And the followup:
billytea: Aww. It'll happen, you just have to give Dave some time.
