In Literary, but touching on movies and TV:
Corwood Industries: Like Edward G. Robinson playing Charlie Brown's teacher.
DavidS: "MWOMP WOMP WOMP, See?"
Nutty: This is the tiniest Venn diagram of humor in the world.
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Big Duluth in Movies:
I just read the IMDB plot synopsis of I Am Legend (Will Smith). I finished reading that story not two week ago. He may Be Legend but I Am Disappointed.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Hee. I almost COMM'd that myself.

It's nice when your friends know you so well. In Bitches:
Toddson: erika, I looked into the book and went "ew" looked at another section and thought "Ew" tried another and went "EWWWWW" ... and knew it was for you.
erikaj: Yeah, not denying the gross. I tend to skim any paragraph featuring maggots, for instance.
Toddson: ah ... so you're skimming a lot.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
ita, in Natter.
They've taken the trinity and made it a threesome. That's disrespectful.
Really, do you even want the context?

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
Sophia Brooks: Also, when he lists he measurements, he lists his waist as 34 x 32. Um, that is your pant size, dumbass. Also, he is a 36 unless his pictures are seriously whack.

In Natter:
megan walker: For some reason, I now mentally add "must be all the pot" to the end of all Jesse's posts. Like a fortune cookie.

Y'all are live ones this morning:
Alibelle: One of the football players in the class made a bust of himself as his uncle, "because he's the strongest guy I know. They have a gym in the prison where he's at, and he, like, works out all the time." Everyone in the room who was not a football player went totally silent and looked at each other like, oooookay. I think he really did just say that.
Alibelle: I disliked him so much that when I briefly worked at a used book store after college, I used to hide his books behind more interesting works if I couldn't just hide them in the back. It was petty but cathartic.

tiggy: today better be thankful it's friday because i have no amount of caring in my body.
shrift: I'd like to bash this morning's head in with a rock.
Dana: Yeah, it'd be a lot easier to care if the internet weren't dead. AWAKE, INTERNET. ENTERTAIN ME....
If people don't start talking, I'm going to make you guys pick my lunch again.
Lee: We could talk about what I should have for breakfast too.
Dana: You could have oatmeal.
I had a Luna Bar and half a Coke.
Lee: I have texture issues with oatmeal.
Maybe a bagel.
Tom Scola: Dana should have a turkey club for lunch, Lee should have eggs and toast for breakfast, and, to carry over a conversation from Bitches, lisah should get a pair of light blue tights.
I hope that clears a few things up.

Rick: As a bicycle commuter, I can testify that Porsches do not create much wind when rushing by. You hear the lovely sound of the engine approaching, but the car slices through the air so elegantly that it just flops back in place after the car passes. No wasteful turbulance streaming out to the sides. No bicycles blown into the ditch.
A truck trails a whoosh of air. A minivan trails a whoosh of air. A Porsche, just a whisper of regret that you don't own one.
