"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I mostly remember about it is how scandalized my ten-year-old self was that Chico said the F word.

Heh. Google is my friend. I was thinking about posting this Chico story up, but I found it, along with another really funny one. The first is credited to Dick Cavett in the telling, but I'm pretty sure I heard him tell the second story (the one I've always loved) as well: [link]

Ann, that's a ferret.

I think the viaduct/why a duck bit is from Cocoanuts, but my memory may be faulty.

Unfortunately, there isn't any really memorable line from the stateroom scene in A Night at the Opera.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I'm loving seltzer down the pants. So to speak.

Oh, right, thread titles.

Seltzer down your pants for the Comedy one defintely.

Less sure of the Procedurals.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

I had to join in the "when did I join buffistas" discussion! I joined on TT (Buffy 5x5 thread) using (mostly) my real name. I switched to Gloomcookie when we made the move to World Crossing. First (hysterical to me) post!

I want more Dawn episodes.

Edited to remove tag line as it was confusing in context.

I like the seltzer one, too.

I just looked this up, the first few verses of the song that's been plaguing me:

Something familiar,
Something peculiar,
Something for everyone:
A comedy tonight!

Something appealing,
Something appalling,
Something for everyone:
A comedy tonight!

Nothing with kings, nothing with crowns;
Bring on the lovers, liars and clowns!

Old situations,
New complications,
Nothing portentous or polite;
Tragedy tomorrow,
Comedy tonight!

I'm kind of fond of "Tragedy tomorrow, Comedy tonight" for a title.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I like this

Bring on the lovers, liars and clowns!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Bring on the lovers, liars and clowns!

That's pretty much my dating history, right there.
