You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

"And a whore!"

Or: "Was it space monkeys?" because that seemed to get a lot of love, out of the entire first episode.

The space monkeys one is pretty good.

Lori likes

JAYNE: " "

For sheer stupidity for people of a certain age who grew up with the Great Space Coaster, I'd recommend "The Great Space Quoter." Which is sort of my favorite.

Give me a minute and I'll be back with some more.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Okay, because I am a silly billy, and also haven't seen tonight's ep yet, that silence was intentional, right?

Also: so this is the place we choose NAFDA thread titles, right? Won't that be spoilery for UnAmericans?

Okay, other thoughts:

"And did I mention there's a whore?"

"Oh, my god, I'm a hack." which seems somewhat appropriate since we're talking about writing.

"Joss's first nonlatex show"

Man, Being creative on demand for a pithy one line epigram - too stressful to me. But if you want to know how to get 12 year olds to write a literary analysis, I'm your woman. Well not your woman, technically, more Lori's woman but you get my point.

I'm down with the whore.

In the same sense that Kat's our woman.

As in get your mind out of the gutter.

Also: so this is the place we choose NAFDA thread titles, right? Won't that be spoilery for UnAmericans?

Well, since they will likely see the threads on the main page, it would be a good idea to keep them unspoily if possible. Most funny lines out of context aren't spoily.

Hmmm...

My name's part of that sentence and my mind is in the gutter...

Will whore though fuck up people's ablility to view/read/access at work?

I like the " " cause you know, silence, not spoilery.

Oh. If the word whore is gonna set off bell's and whistles maybe it should be

"And did I mention there's a companion?"

Frankly I find whore funnier. Cause you know, whores, funny. Companions, NSM.
