Eddie: Hi Perkins, I'm with you in the insomnia boat. Are they watching porn at least?
Perkins: No. The news. What's up with that?
Eddie: That's just sick.

Topic!Cindy, In Natter:
A woman I worked with went to a Catholic college (or boarding prep school--I disremember). There was apparently a cemetery for the nuns, on the grounds. She saw one headstone with the name Mary Circumcision. Bet that one didn't pick her own name.
(erin, thank you! Can you or a stompy correct my spelling to "cemetery"--please)
Heather: We had a few atheists in our church, probably some pagans- though I'm not sure they were in the strictest sense (if there's such a thing as orthodox paganism).
Gudanov: I think there was a website, apparently it involves really bad webpage design.
Jessica: Modern paganism is like fanfic. The answer is always yes.
Steph L., in Natter:
From another board:
I heard the reason the Nigerian Cardinal wasn't elected is because the other Cardinals were still angry at him about those Nigerian e-mail scams.
erika on papal succession:
I meant, should he reach an end within the next few years that the next guy be more vital and less frightening. Not that he should take a long walk off a short dais.
Nutty:
Conservatives like to pretend that "government" is made up of maladjusted actuaries, freeloading secretaries and people researching the sexual habits of the tree frog. While I have known all of these types, I'm also a fan of, like, the National Cancer Institute, Yellowstone National Park, interstate highways, and the FBI.
In Bitches:
Maria
Choosing a different name also signifies the concept that "self" takes a back seat to his role as the shepherd of the entire flock. Joseph is a man; Benedict XVI is responsible for guiding over 1 billion persons' souls.
Robin:
Just like: Robin is a girl.
Scrappy is a disco inferno.
tommyrot: Today I took the CTA L to work. The L is not as good as Metra. One example of this is that I've never smelled urine on a Metra train, but it happens once in a while on the L. Like today. So not only did I smell urine during my first train ride, but I've since discovered that I have taken on the urine smell. Yes, I smell like someone else's urine.
Coincedentally, I am wearing one of my Urinetown t-shirts. I think I shall try to avoid people today.
ita: My only first-hand knowledge of potty training was the epiphany when I realised my childhood was over (slightly melodramatic child, I was). Then I realised that I was so far the only one that knew I was potty trained -- so I peed on the carpet one last time for auld lang syne.
