I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

in Lost:

Ailleann: Wow, I didn't know that seawater dissolves clothing!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Erin in Literary:

"La grippe" also confused me for a while. I think I was thirty before I figured out it was a fancy, stuck-up way of saying "cold or flu, I dunno, I'm Victorian."

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

shrift: I don't often smile brightly, so when I do, it tends to make people nervous.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

In Natter:

tommyrot, sharing his favorite line from an article: Space Shuttle Discovery is scheduled to arrive bearing gifts of toilet hardware.

Ailleann: How thoroughly history has forgotten the fourth Magi...

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie

In Natter:

MFNlaw:

Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. It looks like we'll be departing from New York on time today, and we should reach Los Angeles in the record time of 2 hours and 10 minutes. We seem to be aided by a strong tailwind caused by excessive hand-flailing and multiple recitations of the Rosary in the vicinity of Harrisburg, PA and Boston, MA. Evidently, Maria and Juliana have not checked in with their families yet. That means trouble for them, but a quick flight for us.

Sit back, relax, and hope they don't call until after we land.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

From Bitches:

ND: I'm watching a talking crayon.

meara: ... I think as long as other people can see the talking crayon too, it's OK.

If not, we may need to have a talk about how much you've been working, sweetie.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

In Bitches, MM and Frankenbuddha made me laugh. We won't discuss what actually ended up on the monitor.

Me: I get why it is stupid to cut off one's nose to spite one's face, but what about cutting off one's nose to stop it from sneezing anymore?

MiracleMan: Too extreme.

Four words: Wet/Dry Shop Vac.

Frankenbuddha: If only you could get one with a silencer.

juliana: tommy, you may not believe in the RickRoll, but the RickRoll believes in you. It's never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down....

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Natter, regarding the new M. Night Shyamalan movie (no spoilers, I swear.)

Tom Scola: I hope so, because the trailer was crushingly bleak and depressing.

Steph L.: Marky Mark has that effect.
