Ginger:
I am also not voting for the Public Service Commission candidate who talks about "roving blackouts." It's "rolling blackouts," moron. The blackouts do not stroll about like minstrels.
Mal: Does.. um.. does this seem kind of tight? Kaylee: Shows off your backside.

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

not your mom's socks.
in tech, to answer a craxy-stupid question about voice recognition and transcription.
tommyrot: You know, dogs can recognize about 200 different words. So if you assume that there are 10,000 commonly used words, and that most words used fall in this 10,000, you could get 50 dogs and train each to recognize 200 words. Then you'd need some sort of 200-key doggie keyboard for each dog....

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I love tommyrot's analysis of the communion wafer: Well, they paid less than a penny. But then they added value by turning it into Jesus.

Fun with nicknames and knowledge, in Bitches.
billytea: I didn't really have a proper nickname at school, yet I now have two at work: "Sneakers" and "Willipedia".
connie neil:
"Willipedia?"
"You bet he will!"
billytea: Rarely has a shot been so rim.
connie neil: I'm the Ed McMahon of Bitches.
Trudy Booth: How many legs does a Willipede have?
billytea: Dare I suggest that you look it up? (Correct answer: a willion.)
Trudy Booth: I'm just grateful its the pedes we're counting and not the willys.
Typo Boy: At that end there can be only one.
billytea: Not according to the marsupial family.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
From (where else?) bitches:
Aims - I need help. I have to give an abstinence-only = boo, comprehensive sex ed = YAY! speech tonight and I have NO VISUAL AID. What should I use?

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.

Aim's classmate:
Learn the language. At least learn key phrases so that you can get help if you need it. I had trouble the first time I went to Europe because I didn't speak any French or British.
Fay responds:
On behalf of the people of Europe (and I venture to suspect that the people of Asia, Africa, Australasia and the Middle East will join us on this one), I have a message for your acquaintance: "Stay home. No, really."
(Could you translate it into American for her?)
Miracleman:
Sure.
