"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

I call it Zoe, Simon, Mal & Jayne in my head, to scan like the short-lived Michael Rosenbaum/Selma Blair jobbie do.

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

We can COMM AIM talk, right? For special occasions?

mmerlizard: AIM is hard on the tendons!
CaBil (1:39 AM): AIM is hard on the tendons? I would think skating would be worse...
mmerlizard (1:40 AM): Well, different sets, at least. Or do you type with your toes?
CaBil (1:41 AM): No, just focus my rage at the world at the keyboard, and the keys type out of fear....

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Kinesthetic letters revisited -

Alibelle:

I think v is a mottled purple.

Rebecca Lizard:

That's because you are insane!

Wait. Ow. Again. I'm an idiot. This is the worst thing to argue about, because I both KNOW it's totally completely subjective and WILL vary from person to person, and am simultaneously possessed of a very, very, deep and unshakable conviction that mine is the ONLY TRUE V. Because... purple? Is just WRONG. Wronger than a Riley/Parker sandwich, served with orange juice after you've just brushed your teeth.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Damn. My limo to the life of crime always hits a speed bump before it's even out of the driveway.

Theo's tagline:

Ray is definitely the type to heed the dictum that you shouldn't go to bed with anyone crazier than you. While that leaves him with a large population of potential lovers, the line is clearly drawn when it comes to Fraser.

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

Madrigal Costello, in Firefly:

Beagles really are the Seth Greens of the dog world.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

Madrigal, on potential spawn:

I don't really want a bunch of little me's. I know me. I wouldn't wish that on anyone. But I do want some similarity - kids who'll willingly ask mall Santas for fake-IDs, belch the Greek alphabet on the answering machine message, and get really excited about over-sized South American rodents. So odds are I'll just get little plaid-wearers who watch cleaning product informercials as if they were Joss shows and can't understand why anyone would want to make a prank phone call.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

In Angel, Matt and PMM getting to the point:

MATT: I'm still holding out a faint hope that Connor's supposed to grow up into an Antichrist figure.

PMM: Can he be naked?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
