Kat in BBaBB on why perhaps we shouldn't have direct transcription of thoughts to post (T2P):
But I fear it would be a lot of "So, this is what happened today.... oh look, shiny!...how do you spell superciliious...what was I thinking....oh yeah... you know, I think I need plastic surgery... then I had what's it called... I should check my bank balance.... oh, I know I'm forgetting something.... what was I thinking again."
Robin, aka the Buffista Once Known as Scrappy:
I cry at commercials and cheap stuff too. But I don't care if other people see me do it. I mean, what are they gonna think, that I'm a human being with emotions?

Aimee:
[takes a Valium]
[has a beer]
Polter Cow: Those are two things you probably shouldn't take together, you know.
Topic!Cindy: Oh hush, you. A really helpful pharmaceutiwhateva would be researching the optimum time for Aimee to nurse the Princessa, being sure to take into account time required for metabolism, such that the valium and beer would keep her quiet on the plane. ijs
Thomash in Natter, making me laugh about a subject I've been having a hard time laughing about:
So I managed to catch the swearing-in ceremony this morning and I found myself just a little surprised. Or maybe disappointed, I don't know. I was half expecting to hear Sideshow Bob's acceptance speech.

Pfft! How can people be prepared for life without monsters or up beating? I worry for the Gilmore Girls generation. Thank goodness PJ came along to bring them misery and oliphaunts.
Frankenbuddha:
And big honking spiders.
Ginger in Lost (slight spoiler):
The other thing the box of letters pointed out is that people in a plane crash in which the plane is ripped in two are apparently more likely to end up with their luggage than people who land at an airport.
Rescuing shrift in Natter:
shrift - Right, so... did I kill Natter, or are all of you just rappelling down the side of my office building and preparing to smash through the server room window?
Jilli VoiceOfReason - Crap, she found out! Quick! Deploy the ferrets!
tommyrot - Ferret Attack Formation Delta.... engage!
Sean K - BLOW THE WINDOWS!!! BREACH, BREACH!!
JohnSweden - Shhh, not til Saturday. You're ruining it!!
Jilli VoiceOfReason - Saturday?! I don't think I can keep the little capes and helmets on the ferrets until Saturday.

Did he pump his warm fluids into your orifice?
Gus on delayed airline connections:
All of recorded history has passed by since the "flight will be delayed" announcement. The original announcement was in, I think, Aramaic. Languages have changed so much, since then.
