Strega:
When I was at the comic shop today I got Alan Moore's "The Courtyard" so any & all Cthulhu references are even funnier/creepier than usual.
Plei:
Cthulhu, like cows and monkeys, is always funny.
Lillian's musical stuffed octopus is named, err, Cthulhulaboo.
(Now I want for someone to start an 80s cover band called Kajathulhu.)
A morning-fresh quote for you all, from Bitches:
Fay: I speak as a slob, on behalf of my people. (They would have elected me, but it would have involved getting off the couch and they couldn't remember where they put the voting slips...)
billytea:
When I was a kid I was very helpful. When I got into astrology I started advising my parents' friends on whether the stars said their marriage would last. (I was very sympathetic with the ones in trouble, of course.) Oh, and one time I got hold of a women's magazine and offered my mother and her friends advice on how to deal with any menstrual problems.
Nobody posted this? FUCKOS!
Corwood, testing for RIO identity in Music:
If one poster-bot leaves the Midwest heading east at the speed of the Internet while continental drift brings the fuckos occupying a virtual message board into orbit of a cancelled tv show at the speed of ink drying, what time should I take a break and drink a coke?
Welcome to the Cass & Billytea Show!!!!!
Cass:
Soooo... I need fireplace tools. Especially as jabbing with a clicky lighter is obviously a bad idea given that it is inherently flammable...
Why are fireplace tools a seasonal item in Portland? I want a scoopy thing to remove ashes and a pokey thing to poke things about.
billytea:
You'd be amazed how many animals adopt a similar philosophy come mating season.
Cass:
BT, I saw a marmot! Are there marmots here? It was a little odd but really cute.
billytea:
Yeah, they're pretty funny when you get them up to full speed.
Cass:
It was nibbling grass. Should I chase the next one?
Run, Marmot, run.
billytea:
No, no, just sidle up to them. Let nature do the rest!
Cass:
Twitchy little critters?
billytea:
Hey, they're rodents. It's in the job description.
Cass:
- Twitch nose
- Forage for delicious treats
- FLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
- Twitch nose
kat perez:
Dress shorts are of the devil. Unless you are a camp counselor or Julie on Love Boat, shorts are never an acceptable work option.
ita in Natter:
Arm warmers might get you a second look on the subway, but fleece blankets will get you the whole double seat to yourself.

I'm a diehard shipper. BuffyNAngel4Evah!!1!! has nothing on my Jilli/Peeves OTP. (Jeeves! OMG, you even have a fabulous and appropriate portmanteau! BLESS!)
