I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the twelfth century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophesy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.

In Natter. It's just such a crisp, matter-of-fact exchange...

Jessica: Ewwww. Maybe I'll just have my head frozen.

Kat: Brain in a jar?

Jessica: Robot body.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Jessica, re: Robot Body

Plus, I could have flamethrowers for hands if I wanted to.

Truly, it will be a golden age.

Hil R.: My religion has given me far more questions than answers.

Allyson: Judaism is the JJ Abrams of religions.

If I only had a brain...

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Um, I think that's from some filk or other that I heard in 1983 or thereabouts. I probably should have attributed it, but I'm still trying to figure out to whom.

But thanks!

Ann, that's a ferret.

Calli, I remember that! It was from a ChimeraCon Cantina, c. 1985 or 1986. Karen Fisher (as Princess Leia) sang it, though I can't remeber the skit.

Paul Thompson probably wrote it, but I'm just guessing -- but seems like he wrote half of the skits every year....

Thanks, Fred! That would have bugged me all afternoon.</natter>

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

billytea: it's not evil enough.

JZ: How about Condoleeza Scalia von Rumscroft?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

In Buffy 'n' Angel:

Beverly: She's one of probably three or four living women who could wear those cuffed pants and look good in them.

ita: I love the idea that you have a separate list of dead women who could rock the look.

What is even happening?

Cass: I hope the caffiene in the Midol isn't playing drug games in my brain. Because if I get any closer to the earth, I will be mining metal, fashioning weapons, and smiting the fuck out of those that bug me.
