JZ:
And congratulations on the good interview, MM. I'll be vibing "Clearly that handsome fella in the stripey tights is our only rational choice"~ma in the direction of Michigan.
Miracleman:
Oh. Should I have worn the tights?
And should I have been handsome?
JZ:
For God's sake, at least tell us you wore the candy bra.
Miracleman:
I thought about it, but it ruined the line of my dress.
Er...suit.
tommyrot:
Interviewer: Is there anything else that you can offer this company?
MM: You know... [unbuttons shirt] I do have too much candy....
Miracleman:
...and then they leapt to their feet and proclaimed me their king.

I can't help thinking: ita + pole dancing = bruises! bruises in new places!
Could you fix my Hogwarts typo in that COMM, Kate? Thanks!
Done, Kristin! (Sorry, I meant to fix it when I posted it, but I forgot.)
beth b., discussing background details of the
Harry Potter
books:
The fact that the Sorting is so important for me to figure out tells me that I am in the right profession.
Showing the differences of memories in Bitches:
JZ: After golloping down all these posts, I simply must know...did Pete actually kick the ground when he first told Jilli he fancied her? Because that's so unbelievably adorable that my insides are turning to oatmeal with heavy cream and maple syrup right now just thinking about it.
Did he duck his head and shuffle his feet too? Did he? I may die right here and now.
Jilli: JZ, he looked at his feet and kinda scuffled them while saying "Well, I guess you know that I fancy you". Yes, very adorable.
Pete: Sorry, JZ, but no. We were on a stairwell at the time. I think we were both seated
paperdol in Natter:
mommy people, noah ate half of what i'm supposed to feed him, and i've been trying to burp him, but he instead farted and passed out.
gas is gas, right?
Note: She can totally babysit for me, anytime she wants.

If we think Natter and Bitches as the de facto social souls of the board, each new thread is like a horcrux (NERD!) that splits that soul a little more.
billytea in the book club thread (not at all spoilery)
when I was six and a group of psychologists stuck myself and two of my brothers in a room and told us each to draw our family, I drew the life cycle of the echidna. (My older brother drew our grandmother playing rugby, my younger brother a bunch of unrelated people being eaten by a shark.) Echidnas and me, that's where the history is.
