Xander: Am I right, Giles? Giles: I'm almost certain you're not. Though, to be fair, I haven't been listening.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Nilly in Natter:

I'm stopping the JewishMommy who is living inside me from telling people in snowed-places to make sure to bundle up, take spare socks, stuff like that. That InnerJewishMommy fights like she's learned the InnerMommy version of krav, but I try to keep her in check.

Cindy (Buffista Zero?) explains it all in B'crazy:

We don't have a boss here, in terms of etiquette. If any poster isn't somehow in flagrant disregard over a community standard, nobody is ever going to tell that poster "don't". Instead, it's usually going to come to the following:

Buffista 1: We got Whedonesqued!

Buffista 2: Direct link, or to the board?

Buffista Simon: Direct link, but I edited it.

Many Buffistas: Simon's so fooooooooooooooamy.

Buffista 3: I hate when we get Whedonequed.

Buffista 4: Well, I only Whedonesqued us, because I thought it was cool news.

Buffista 5: What's Whedoneque?

Buffista 6:

Buffista 3: I hate when we get Whedonequed.

Don't you think "hate" is sort of a strong word?

Buffista 7: Only a babe in the woods would think the internet is private.

Buffistas 1: This is news?

Buffista 2: edited by Buffista 2 on Never 12, 2006 6:06:06 pm PST

Buffista 8: Um this is the internet; nothing is private

Buffista Strega: No starting posts with "um". Um. Wait. This is not my beautiful house.

All the Buffistas: Yes but we'll be your beautiful wife. Or husband. Or whatever. Same as it ever was.

Buffista Newbie: Except me. I'm a Eunich for Joss.

Buffista 10: That's Eunuch.

Buffista Newbie: U R meen.

Buffista Oldtimer: Have we ever explained about guacamole?

Buffista Newbie: Does it have cilantro in it, because I'm sort of allergic, or averse, or allergic.

Buffista Cilantro Lovers: THEM'S FIGHTIN' WORDS

Buffista Cilantro Haters: Bring. It. On.

The Rest of Us: SALAD SHOOTER SALAD SHOOTER SALAD SHOOTER!!!

Buffista Liese: [something sensible, respecting our tradition, while being open to different expressions of same]

All Buffistas Who Haven't "Left": Liese speaks for us!

...

Two months later...

Buffista 12: We just got Whedonesqued.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Nutty straightens out the theology in Natter.

Do you want to worship a god who might someday be arrested on Animal Precinct?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

The always delightful billytea, context unnecessary:

And I seem to have cemented my reputation at work as an eccentric, so now I can do whatever the hell I want and no one says boo! Did you know tomorrow is bathrobe day? I'm betting they don't either!

If I only had a brain...

Kathy A: Don't walk down a dark alley at night, unless you're Buffy or ita.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

In Bitches:

Aimee:

You can milk anything with nipples.

brenda m: t suddenly worried for Joe

Aimée:

We have a 50-50 marriage. I feed the baby, he feeds the dog.

I don't ask questions.

brenda's line isn't there.

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

Cass: It's been mentioned here recently that parts of my family are just bugfuck crazy.

Trudy Booth: How does one fuck a bug?

vw bug: SPP is dead to me.

********************

Am-Chau Yarkona: ... we still have snakes in England (and Wales and Scotland): the grass snake (which is actually a legless lizard), the adder (the posionous but really rare one)... and possibly one other I've forgotten.

Cass: I don't care what they are technically, that's a snake. ::shudders:: The Tiajuana Estuary has some flavor of legless lizard and no one will ever convince me that they just aren't snakes that are lying to themselves.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Because I cannot stop laughing about this, in Natter....

tommyrot: Don't put a pencil in your penis

Belgrade - A Serbian man needed emergency surgery after sticking a pencil inside his penis to keep it stiff during sex.

Nora: Ugh! Aiee! My eyes!

Jessica:

Don't put a pencil in your penis

Well, there goes my weekend.

Kalshane: Okay, ow. Why would anyone think that was a good idea? And, ow!

Frankenbuddha: Some people juggle geese.

Sean: And to think, until today, I honestly thought there were some things you wouldn't ever need to post a warning about. Wrong again!

shrift: Well, now there's a whole new, even more insulting layer of meaning to calling somebody a "pencil-dick".

Frankenbuddha: It also gives exciting new meaning to the phrase "get the lead out".

DX: And you just know someone will file a class action suit that will be settled by having that warning message printed on every package of pencils manufactured for here on.

Fred Pete: I've heard of "putting the lead in your pencil," but I never thought it was meant literally.

Sean: It's only right and proper that every pencil (and in a few years, every pen too) have the words DO NOT INSERT INTO PENIS printed on them.

We just didn't know it until now.

Frankenbuddha: At least a pen doesn't carry the risk of splinters. More parts, though.

ita: Might have been a mechanical pencil. However, then there's no got wood joke.

shrift: I find myself wondering if he, perhaps, hollowed out the pencil so he could ejaculate, or if that hadn't crossed his mind between thinking "crayon-en-pénis" was a good idea and actually carrying out the doltish deed.

Frankenbuddha: Hmm. "Clicking your Bic" takes on new possibilities if it's a pen.

Aimée: God that would make maturbation noisy.

click click click clickclickclickclick

tommyrot: I once had a wooden mechanical pencil.

I also have a combination pen/laser pointer.

Dana: I read a horrid romance novel once that talked about the hero writing messages of love on the (I'm sorry to say) womb of the heroine. At the time I wondered what the writing instrument was.

Now I know.

ita:

I also have a combination pen/laser pointer.

An hour ago that wouldn't have sounded like TMI.

Steph: Maybe I'm just too choosy, but I wouldn't have sex with someone who had a pencil IN HIS DICK.

Trudy:

I also have a combination pen/laser pointer.

See, now that I could understand trying. Well, "understand" in the sense that a laser coming out of your penis is just sorta sci-fi awesome.
