I look more rad than Lutheranism

What's a favorite moment for you(se)?

"What is WITH that CAT?!? Is someone THROWING it???"

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

"Forget the zombies, we have to deal with this cat situation"

Oh, god, Jeff and the Dean singing Kiss from a Rose (and Jeff starts getting into it)... and then the end when he shows up at Annie, Troy, and Abed's to admit ditching, and they all break out into Kiss from a Rose.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The one from this season where Jeff's ego gets out of control, and the Dean collapses at the sheer sight of him in aviator sunglasses.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Is it quote death match time?

Perhaps so...

Though a lot of these aren't quotes

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

At the risk of being considered a heretic, I didn't really get the humour of the cat-throwing. Is it because I am not a card-carrying member of the Cat Nation? I dunno. Cats are like Jensen Ackles to me. I can objectively see the appeal, but they don't do anything for me personally.

I don't think that's a cat person joke so much as a horror movie joke. Riffing on that thing where our heroes are startled by something and it's just a cat. Like Patches on Buffy, sort of, but going in another direction.

But then the show keeps on doing the screeching cat thing. Like, 3 or 4 times. It's hard, I think, for a show to know when excessive repetition is funny (Family Guy, I am looking right at you, you piece of shit), but the cat thing totally does it for me. (The Simpsons usually did it pretty well, like in the Cape Fear episode, with Sideshow Bob stepping on all the rakes ever.)
