Natter 53: We could just avoid making tortured puns  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

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

I just had a meeting in which the same people used the words "poopy" and "motherfucker."

I told them to stop saying "poopy" because it was scarring me.

These are the same guys who got really excited about my 7 deadly sins bracelet, because one of them gets so angry in meetings he ends up needing to send apology emails afterwards. So he wants an external reminder of anger.

I'd be a little paranoid if I saw a co-worker wearing the lust one.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Wow, that big dramatic coming-out announcement is right up there for redundancy with Nathan Lane's.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Okay, wait, they weren't before?

Really, I mean, I didn't even know it was an open secret, I just thought it was open.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Cancer does not make you a better person. I'm all the proof you need.

Only in the sense that you have been an extremely nice person for as long as I have known you...

Ultimate Twin Peaks DVD

The "Twin Peaks: Definitive Gold Box Edition" DVD box set (due Oct. 30, 2007), which will include both seasons of the show and -- for the first time ever on DVD -- the two-hour pilot episode! Not only that, but two versions of it: the one that originally aired on ABC, and the "European" version (with its own bizarre coda/ending) that was released in theaters overseas.
