'Get It Done'
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.
Raq in Firefly:
I think there are degrees of fans for everything. I own all the Buffy DVDs, watched it religiously when it was on, have a bunch of the other stuff (like the RPG) just coz it's Buffy, but wouldn't consider joining an internet community that was formed around BtVS...wait.
Jesse is just making me giggle here.
Knife defense, machine gun defense, you people need sidewalk defense.

Betsy HP
A participant in a meeting was making a presentation. One attender had to telephone in and couldn't see the slides.
She explained that she hadn't sent him the slides because she didn't want him to read ahead in the presentation .

spoilers for presentations? will the phone participant gasp in surprise at the wrong time and ruin the HSQ for everyone?
Nutty in Boxed Set:
So, if I do run afoul of a krav practitioner, and I have an equal choice between a big knife and a live raccoon as my weapon, I should choose the live raccoon?
Good to know.

::cancels plans to discuss President Jesus: Time-traveling Alien...::
Oh, I think that one needs the set-up for full effect. In Firefly:
Gus: Religion. Politics. There is maxim about avoiding these subjects in conversation. For true helter-skelter you need to get science fiction into the mix.
tommyrot: ::cancels plans to discuss President Jesus: Time-traveling Alien with people I don't know well::
Gus: Everyone dies alone. This cheery message was brought to you by the League of Evil Posters.
erikaj: unless you take somebody down with you...
I'm spamming COMM. People need to stop being quotable, or it will continue. JZ in Firefly:
My beloved terminally eccentric Uncle D. in Brookline spent his declining years laboring on his magnum opus, a novel spinning out from the thesis that Jesus was an interstellar Mason. No publisher in his lifetime thought it would ever find an audience; I'm beginning to suspect the problem was that the Buffistas didn't exist yet.
Gus in Great Write, discussing the novel he's just sold. Writers, at the very least, will be nodding and giggling:
It has all that story stuff. It starts out with a dude who cannot differentiate his ass from his elbow. A girl occurs. The dude discovers the difference.
If I ever get a publicist, he or she is going to hate me.
Katefate in Natter 42:
Perhaps I shall explodiate, after all. I called the Illinois Attorney General's office and found out I'd had my IL DL suspended in 1981 for failure to appear on a traffice ticket. Apparently, like murder and the enmity of an ex, tickets have no statute of limitations.
