This thread is for Buffista quotage. Posts that are profound, witty, or otherwise deserving of immortality go here. This is also Shrift's source for the BRQG, so be aware that if your words end up here, they'll also end up there. Finally, please note which thread spawned the quotage and please white-out anything that might be spoilery to Un-Americans.
Tim Minear, on the subject of the wacky "oops" LA power outage of 9/12/05:
Power came back on around 6:00pm. Went out around 1:00pm. My skinny cow low carb bars melted. Where was FEMA? George Bush hates pudgy white guys.
Cashmere:
Change your name to Karl Rove.
In Bitches...
Madrigal: I have an odd etiquette question that I suppose is best asked here.
Currently we're living in Rushcutters Bay, but Almanzo works on Darlinghurst in Kings Cross. The street is pretty much entirely taken up with strip clubs, bars, strip clubs that are really brothels, lingerie and sex toy stores, adult book stores, adult book stores that are really swingers clubs, etc. And a lot of women persuing the oldest profession. For the most part I don't get bothered, and now that Almanzo's at Sleevemasters, it's sort of a tiny bit like being Ben Edlund's dentist at a comic book convention.
So, now that we have the set up, here's the situation. There's one particular working girl who's been regularly offering me one of her services. And even though I decline each time, she asks again each night. The last few nights she's been saying she'll perform this act for free. And then follows me for several blocks. So what's the firm, but polite way to definitely tell a girl that you do not wish to see her vagina?
Teppy: I'll give you Crush!Guy's phone number, and he can tell you what he said to me.
Raq in Natter:
I hadn't heard that Laura Bush didn't know the name of Hurricane Katrina a week after it hit New Orleans. Clearly they need to upgrade her chip to Stepford XP.
Cracking my shit up in Natter:
Betsy: You're the Mom. What more mandate do you need?
Jilli Is "Because I said so" a mandate? I was never sure.
Mineraverse.
Kristen: Girls are made of sugar and spice and everything nice...
Got Life: And, sometimes, they gut you, just to watch you die.
Hey now! Got Life brought the setup. I brought the gutting.
Emily: At one point I was up to 59,685/5,491,020 and didn't know if I would ever see integer-land again.
Did I get that backwards?
Ok. Get Life sets people up. Kristen guts them.
Welcome to Buffistas.
Gus, you might want to edit them when you get a chance, so that when shrift collects them for the BRQG, they're correctly attributed.
/still sad Julie got my Scarlett O'Hara bosom attribution
Steph , summing up the Buffista experience:
Gus, we're Buffistas. We have opinions on shows we've never watched, food we've never eaten, people we've never fucked.
It's what we do.
