That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

erikaj, in Bitches:

I went Buff Diving for vanity points, and did not find myself once...I did find three funny kitty stories right in a row...it was like Hec's worst nightmare.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Literary Ginger:

Things made from books really disturb me. With very few exceptions, I think of books as sacred objects. There are a few books I think would have a higher calling as furniture, but a bedroom made entirely out of Ethan Frome is a pretty disturbing idea too.

Compassionately intolerant

DCJ in Bitches:

It amazes me that the same people that can't parse the concepts of choice and freedom have no problem with the words fornication and abstenence.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

In Natter 30, on the wisdom of after-dinner treats.

shrift:

Today's fortune cookie told me that I have "an active mind and a keen imagination."

That's 'cause of the drugs, oh fortune cookie mine.

Dana:

Mine last night said something like "Action is more valuable than advice."

Thanks. Would have been great if you were an ACTION cookie, then.

ita in the Minearverse. (Actually, there are several gems throughout the conversation... but):

You know, if someone could get their poison into Krispy Kreme, they'd be golden.

You'd be snarfing, your co-worker would fall over dead, you'd pause to think "Poor fuck," and grab the remnant of his Boston Creme before he hit the ground.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

Sparky1 in Bitches:

Someday, I will be able to decorate in something other than Early American Garage Sale.

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

connie neil in Bitches, commenting on furniture:

The couch is very red. I think I need something red. Unfortunately the blood of the deserving fades to brown. Must re-think.

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

Lilty's indefatigible Captain Jack:

"Oh..I'm dying! I can't go on! The light! I see the....hey. Who the hell is that BLUE fish?? And since when do you have a CAT? You know, I'm feeling stronger..yes! Yes, I will swim away from the light!! Hmm, you know, no one's been looking at me for a bit. I feel faint! Arrrrr."

ita beats me to it. I choked up leftover dinner party hors d'ouvres when I read that.

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie

Lilty Cash on the woes of having a roommate with a little too much magic in her heart:

Drug dealers are more my style. She's been raving about this movie for weeks. Everytime the preview comes on she asks if I read the book. When I say no, she says "OMG IT'S SO GOOD!!! Did you read Tuesdays With Morrie?" Yes. "Did you like it?". No. Then she gets quiet, looks at me like I have no soul, and keeps decorating the room with snowmen. From where I am sitting, I can count at least 20.

Maybe I am a bad person with no joy.
