To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

What is even happening?
Betsy: Finally, a question I can answer.
DO YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES FOR SUCCESS IN THE MINIATURE CATTLE BUSINESS?Hec: Betsy can totally do this. First, she borrows a cowboy hat from Jesse. Second, she brings billytea in to set up a breeding program. She's got teams of actuaries on hand to project earnings. And look how happy she is to handle a functional cattle prod.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
beth b in Bitches:
both my cat and my DH think I should go to bed. the fact that I want to say "you're not the boss of me" makes me think that they might be right.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.
In Bitches, beathen in response to Ginger saying "Sugar is my art":
Sugar is your art. You make cookies and cakes with your hands, day after day. That final chocolate chip. That look of perfection. Part of you is desperate to know: What's it taste like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the nuts you didn't throw in or the vanilla you didn't include. Every Buffista... has a sugar wish.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
Matt the Bruins Fan in F2F:
My favorite is still another cousin's wedding where my foul-tempered cousin Rachel was the flower girl. She came down the aisle grimmacing, stopping every few feet to hurl a handful of flowers down onto the ground in angry fashion. There may have been stomping and grinding as well.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
More F2F wedding talk:
ita: I was one of eight bridesmaids in the last wedding I stood up in. 8 Groomsmen, natch, a flower girl and a ringbearer (okay, word now tainted).
amych: Actually, I would like to see this at a wedding. Especially if he brings along his short bald friend with the funny syntax.
beathen: How about the pointy ear pieces? An elvish wedding.
Jilli VoiceOfReason: shudders
You're bringing back memories of the wedding I attended where the ceremony had been written in Elvish. Please don't do that.
tommyrot: For the benefit of those guests who could not understand Elvish, was it translated into Klingon?

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Erin in Natter:
That laundry has been around, some of it, for about a year. It was starting to look like a creature from the Cthlulu universe.
It hissed when I poked it with a stick. So I stuck it in some hot water with detergent and this old grimoire I found at the Salvation Army store.
It doesn't hiss anymore, but some of the pants developed a mysterious third leg..
