Buffy. When I saw you stop the world from, you know, ending, I just assumed that was a big week for you. Turns out I suddenly find myself needing to know the plural of 'apocalypse.'

Spike's Bitches 42: Which question do you want me to answer first?  

[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.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Your slide into villainy took all of ten minutes.

I'm not bad; I'm just drawn that way.

(And apparently, as just FULL of lines this morning.)

She's Catwoman looking for a Batman

This strikes me as a fairly funny personal ad line. I may try it.

ION, I just spent the last 25 minutes applying for a proofreader position at an ad agency. Their ad was full of typos.

Good to know they'll really, really need you.

She's Catwoman looking for a Batman

What about Catwoman looking for another Catwoman? Damnit, the hot girl-on-girl action is always an afterthought.

I was tempted to send it back to 'em proofed, but I didn't know if it was a test, or if I might offend the person who wrote it. So I just cut and pasted things into my cover letter, and corrected them.

I like the way you think, David.

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

Hamlet thinks Ophelia might be happier in a convent

so nunnery != whorehouse?

Um, no. Hamlet follows his "Get thee to a nunnery" line by asking Ophelia why she would want to be a breeder of sinners.

Hamlet has become revolted by sex, because of his mother's o'er hasty remarriage to Claudius. He's telling her to live a life of celibacy, if she wants to find happiness.

Though, yes, in Elizabethan slang, whorehouses were also referred to as "nunneries," and Shakespeare was fond of making exactly that kind of double entendre in his works, the context of the scene suggests that this was one of the times he did not intend the line to be suggestive.
