msbelle: I could chuck all from being in my house, does that count. eating out wouldn't count, right?
meara: That's what Elliot Spitzer said, right?
Xander: Am I right, Giles? Giles: I'm almost certain you're not. Though, to be fair, I haven't been

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

I'm surprised nobody COMMed this already! From Movies, a conversation that began with people talking about the difference between Quebecois and Francophone Quebecois:
Corwood: Being a lifelong resident of the Southern United States, I am very confused by your distinction.
Nutty: Them what are talking French most of the time, count. Them what are not, don't count. And French you learned in college and only use to intimidate people when reading a wine list doesn't count either. Being actually in Quebec, or from there, is only a partial factor in the analysis.
Corwood:
Them what are talking French most of the time, count.
Do what now? So what about them what are mimes?
Nutty: All mimes are French. Don't you know anything?
Corwood: Not too much, I'll admit. But mimes don't talk! Even knowing a priori that they're French, how would the Quebec government confirm that?
Tom Scola: If a Quebecois mime weren't French, would he have to perform his act a second time in French?
Scrappy: Yes. It's exactly the same act, but he does it with contempt for the audience.
ita: I think he needs to perform it the first time in French, and the second time, the English time, can be no longer or bigger than the first.

Who doesn't know this feeling? From Natter.
ita: Work has not exploded as much as I'd feared, but then again I have fifty unread emails. It's like Schroedinger's crisis.

Nilly brings on the Austen love: It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a tired Buffista in possession of a reading comprehension difficulty must be in want of a coffee.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I think you're in the wrong thread, Beth.
