In fact I think masticated popcorn is easier to clean up than coffee. None of it got in the keyboard!
Hey! What do you two think you're doing? Fightin' at a time like this. You'll use up all the air!

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
That reminded me to put up the earlier Literary exchange that made me laugh out loud.
Hec: 9/11 in its planning, execution and politics seemed like it came straight out of a Bruce Sterling novel to me.
Raq: I agree, and this is another reason why we should get those evil-doers. No one deserves Bruce Sterling! No one!

In Natter:
Cass:
Okay, Juan Pablo Montoya just won his first NASCAR race. A Columbian national, Indy 500 winner, Formula One world champion just won a NASCAR race.
I am so glad I kept watching this. Way better than a nap.
juliana:
I am sorry, but the surname Montoya is forever ruined for me.
"Hallo, my name is Juan Pablo Montoya. You have my trophy. Prepare to race."

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Today in Bitches:
DavidS: People go batfuck insane during divorces and separations.
Daisy Jane: Apparently.
DavidS: The example I always remember from TT was the woman whose husband stomped out and took all the handles on the drawers in the kitchen.
Of course, there were other more horrible examples but that one always struck me for the craxy.
Daisy Jane: Well he did take her Jack Daniels and vibrator.
ETA: We're thinking of turning it into a country song.

From the Reality thread:
connie neil:
Is anyone else watching Simon Schama's The Power of Art on PBS? Is anyone else thinking that Simon Schama desperately needs to get laid?

Someone should set him up with Sister Wendy.

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
Aimée:
"I have interected daily with Dana for approximately five years. In that time she has proven to be nothing short of professional and exceedingly articulate. Dana frequently goes above and beyond the call of duty in ensuring that all parties she works with are satisfied with her work."
By which I mean, "Dana writing the good porn. All likey."

Gudanov: I am highly amused by Dick Cheney's defense of being in an indefinite state. When Dick Cheney is in the office of veep, he exists in a state of half-executive and half-legislative until observed by a congressional committee. He's Schroedinger's Dick.
tommyrot: ...in a box?
Gudanov: Not so much a box, but an undisclosed location. The principal is the same though, his wave function doesn't collapse until he's investigated.

Jesse: I have a weird relationship with a former grad school professor, in that I can't figure out what to call her! Definitely first name, but then I'm not sure if I'm OKed to use her nickname or not. And she signs emails with just the first letter. In practice, I don't call her anything.
Nilly: I call these people "excuse me".
