shrift: I am not impressed with this whole "being awake" business.
I get confused. I remember everything. I remember too much, and... some of it's made up, and... some of it can't be quantified, and... there's secrets.

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

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
ita and JZ in Natter. I'm not sure which part is funnier:
ita
Technically it's not work safe, but it actually is. Or vice versa.
JZ
This is possibly the most un-reassuring reassurance I've ever seen.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
In Natter, Sue makes a disturbing discovery --
Sue: Okay, I have just discovered my 79 year old father is on Facebook.
There's just not enough "OMTG!" in the world.
AND! He hasn't even friended me!

...I'm kinda shocked that the above is spelled, capitalized, and punctuated correctly, actually. I think I must've been trying hard and typing slow. :)

Ginger is just cookin' with gas this morning
Ginger: Thanks for the bubblewrap. If only I would remember to wear it when I did dangerous things like getting out of the car to go into a Starbucks. I see the world's best chiropracter later today, so that should help. I do have very CSI-like evidence on my leg showing the height of the curb.
Today I discovered the dog will try to chew the end of a USB cable. He thinks that rain is a horrible trick I'm playing on him. He probably hasn't had much of a chance to learn about rain, considering that most of his life has been during the driest year ever. ::Does the dance of rain ::
I have not yet discovered whether he likes carrots.

And Ginger keeps up her streak in Buffistechnology:
sarameg:
I swear, I'm the worst computer customer ever.
Ginger:
Can you find the internet?
Can you understand how to type in a URL?
Do you know how to cut and paste?
Have you ever spent months complaining long distance to your sister that your new printer won't work when you had never actually connected it with your computer? Even after said sister asked you over and over if the cables were connected?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
In Natter, musing on teh gay:
Gudanov: Ironic since I think Khan was gay. Seriously, the outfit, the obsession with Kirk... Only he was like one of the Republican anti-gay gays that couldn't accept it. If he had accepted himself, he wouldn't have been so angry. On the downside that would have eliminated the best Trek movie and the great yelling straight up cliche.
Wolfram: Khan did have a wide stance.

In Natter:
Beverly: They have a cave troll?
Susan W.: Does anyone else say this in their best Boromir voice when Dick Cheney appears on their TV screen? Just me?

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
In Bitches, context be damned:
Raq: And I'm having to try to teach my son that Christmas != The Grinch and The Grinch != Christmas. (When he says "I want Christmas" he means he wants to want TGWSC.) So we're at the store and I am pointing to non-grinchy things: "Look! Christmas stockings! Christmas bows! Christmas trees!"
Later, when there are a number of people around, he points and yells, "Christmas Ho's!"
Laga: You usually don't have to walk too far in my neighborhood to find Santa kneeling in a creche.
