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.

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

In Natter, the Northeasterners brace for the coming storm:
Jesse: Snow on Saturday is SO LAME. It doesn't get anyone out of anything! Anyway, I don't believe it'll really snow a lot here.
msbelle: do not taunt happy fun noreaster, Jesse.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, come on -- the next part of that post was the clincher:

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Alibelle: Catsup is gross. Heinz ketchup, on the other hand, is great, and adds so much to so many things. Like hamburgers, and homemade fries, and corn dogs. Those things would be all wrong without Heinz ketchup.
Where would you guys be without me pointing out the truth about all these things?

Cindy sets us all straight in Natter:
Topic!Cindy: You know, I would love to blame Jesse for all this snow. After all, she not only taunted happy fun Nor'easter, she's a New Englander turned New Yorker, which is just about as unnatural as green catsup. I can't even entertain the idea of blaming Nilly for this snow. As brilliant and amazing as she is, there are just some things you can't blame on a teeny tiny Israeli woman who has never seen snow, and a classic Nor'easter is one of them.
This is clearly the work of Canadians, folks. And the sooner you come to terms with that, the sooner we can invade and confiscate their weather machine.

Tom Scola: I had to walk a whole two blocks to the subway station this morning. Sure, all the sidewalks were shoveled, but still.
And then, when I got to work, the passageway that goes directly from the subway station up into my building was wet. I could have slipped or something!

I loved the name Piggly-Wiggly. Hearing genteel elderly ladies say "Oh, I must stop off at the Piggly-Wiggly for butter." It could only have been better if it had been "The Eight-Ball".
