Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I'll have you know, your evil hypnotic plan to lead me into tater tot temptation has failed!

However, I plan on having a grilled cheese sandwich for dinner, now. Must remember to pick up tomato soup on the way home.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I have to go meet with our insurance people. What happens if there's no one to exchange insurance information with? If he's convicted of vehicular manslaughter, does that trump our dents? I mean of course it does, but how do we get them fixed?

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

I always skip the part about "under god". I just take a beat between "nation" and "indivisible".

Which, of course, is exactly what the guy who wrote the thing in 1892 intended--even more, he was a Baptist minister, and he thought about adding "under God" but then discarded it as too sectarian and exclusionary and unworthy of the America he was pledging allegiance to. That line was added two decades after his death. It's not very likely that anyone will ever bug you about it, but if they do, you can always blink innocently and point out that you're saying it just the way that nice Baptist fella wrote it in the first place.

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

A friend of mine's car radio was stolen and they caught the guy, recovered the radio, and fined the thief for the broken window. It didn't completely cover the cost of the window and my friend didn't get the money for almost a month but it was still nice to get a little something.

Property damage laws probably vary by state but I'm guessing you fix the dents yourself and then seek reimbursement.

I would probably fire back with "because the current administration isn't?" and then be pilloried, have my car keyed, etc.

that is really nice. last time (yes, there were a few) DH's radio was stolen, the cop said "Let us know if you find it or hear anything...." All we could say was "And vice-versa!"

Yeah, I'm not sure our dents are going to get us much, but our landlord's boyfriend's car is messed up. I'd be willing to bet there's a car or two up the street that have some damage, but I didn't get to look this morning.

my reasoning exactly. I need to remember to ask Mom if that's why she skips it too.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

what the guy who wrote the thing in 1892 intended

Well, at the time he wrote it, he didn't realize we'd be in a life and death struggle against the godless Commies. Only by changing the pledge and putting "In God We Trust" on our currency did we prevail.
