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.

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.

What is even happening?
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.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
In Minearverse:
Allyson: I've already written his Emmy acceptance speech. He says some nice things about my hair in it.
Betsy HP: Yes, but does he remember to thank his massage therapist, his chiropractor, and his acupuncturist?
Allyson: No, Betsy. But he does remember to thank his parents, God and Ayn Rand.

I generally equate "Dissing President Bush is unpatriotic!!!1eleventy!" with "I have no logical answer to your criticisms of his actions and must hide behind the flag until you go away and take your facts with you."

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
Almare: To be honest, my half-brother's retarded sister loves "MacArthur Park." She hates "Tusk." I have a tendency to trust her with things like that.
