connie neil: Oh, MM, I put your Call Center Hell sketch up as my computer desktop picture. My co-workers snickered, my supervisor frowned uncertainly. I've replaced it with a picture of a diamond-encrusted skull. It's even more fun to tell Uncertain Supervisor that "Skulls make me happy."

Miracleman: It's even more fun to tell Uncertain Supervisor that "Skulls make me happy."

"...and, sometimes, they make the voices quieter.

Sometimes."

Seriously? You people are just cooking with gas today

Pete, Husband of Jilli: Message for shrift:

I managed to chat with Jilli last night after she got back from the show.

She met some of the band. There's more, but I'll let Jilli tell you the details. You may very well want Jilli to surrender her top layer of skin.

Jilli VoiceOfReason: Sweetie, you're not supposed to GIVE SHRIFT IDEAS.

We waited at the tour bus (with a mob of other fans) after last night's show. Mikeyway and Frankie came out to sign autographs. Frankie remembered me! He complimented me on my outfit, I said I had been lucky enough to meet him after the last Seattle show, and he said "That's right! I remember you!". And then gave me a hug.

shrift, please don't skin me because I have hugged the Frankie.

Cass: Please do not skin Jilli, shrift. She's all pretty now and I don't know if "Cupcake goth" is a look that's going to work with her looking like those Invisible Woman models you put together as a kid.

Pete, Husband of Jilli: Oh Cass, you fuss too much. A top layer is just dermabrasion. She'll just look all pink and glowing like as if she'd just got done at the spa, or been flooded with sparkly pink radiation.

Amy: If all radiation was pink and sparkly, the world would be a much prettier place.

Miracleman: I managed to produce pink and sparkly radiation once.

The problem is getting the fairies to smash together fast enough that they fuse and give off excess pink-and-sparkly-heavy neutrons.

amych: You need a sparkly fairy supercollider.

Miracleman: Yeah. Which means I need a shitload of magnets and a shitload of steel-jacketed fairies.

oh, it goes on and on...

Fay, in Bitches:

I wish that I had some Buffistas here to play with. Feeling a trifle lonely. Am ass. Should go out and play with myself

Emily, in Bitches:

I used to write angry notes on tiny scraps of paper and throw them down the stairs at my mother: "I hate you" "You're so mean" "It's totally unfair and you are too" and the like. My mother seems to have valued it as a commitment to literacy and kept them.

lisah, in Natter:

this afternoon is dragging like RuPaul in her heydey.

Polter-Cow - I eat bird and fish.

Jon B. - But no mammals?

Polter-Cow - No mammals. Except for rabbit and kangaroo, that one time.

Emily - At the same time? Were you stranded in the Australian outback?

megan walker - Or Hundred Acre Wood?

Damn, MM beat me to it.

In Buffistechnology:

Sean K: Also, GC, I am so with you on the iPhone UI *LOVE*. As long as I have any kind of pokey appendage, I can use my iPhone. *LOVE*!

NoiseDesign:
pokey appendage
t /pron

amych: But you'd need two pokey appendages to do a lot of the cool UI tricks.
t /pron size="bigger"

in Beauracracy because it must be immortalized. stompies having fun.

libkitty: I just step away from the board for a bit (a big bit, but who's counting) and when I come back, all the names are just a bit...off. Must be an alternate universe.

billytea: You came back wrong!

Glamcookie: Welcome back, labkitty!

KristinT: Could someone change my name to libkitten?

Jessica: I propose that the Stompies change everyone's name by one letter every six months, just to keep us on our toes. Someone should probably write a script to automate that.

Kevin: Just make everybody's name an anagram, rotated once a month. It would keep us on our toes.

DXMachina: Don't mess with the stompies...

Jossica: Bwahahaha!

Aims: BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Nevik: Hah!

Oddly, I like this name more.

Austin: Hee! That brightened my morning.

Sox: mine too!

Sean K: Dare I inquire as to who might be next?

Sean K: Sox, I'd be careful how much you say the name changes brightened your morning.

There's only one vowel in your board name, and, well...

Possibly I am just punch-drunk, but the following, by Jessica, vague enough not to need whitefont from the spoiler thread, describes a great many internet reviews:

"[gushy expression of Josslove], nevertheless [obligatory disclaimer re: rational level of hopefulness], but thankfully [OMGSQUEE! JOSS SHITS GOLD BRICKS!!!!]"
