Buffy? I like that. That girl's so hot, she's buffy.

Spike's Bitches 43: Who am I kidding? I love to brag.  

[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.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Askye, I'm glad you have peace about Anna. But there is no silence more deeply not right than the silence of a home that has fewer cats than is accustomed.

Or that "segway" was that weird word "segue" I kept seeing.

I was in my early 20s before ever seeing the word "segue" and it was a couple years beyond that that I heard it pronounced often enough to make a connection.

If I say vee-HICK-ul, there is a 95% probability that I am very fond of the automobile in question and a 5% probability that I'm trying to be funny.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I'm not clear on the difference between bah-nahl and bah-NALL

oops, my bad. I'm never sure how to write weird subtle distinctions like that. Basically bah-nahl = both 'a's sound the same, for the second the second syllable is a lot harder and nasal.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Rita Hayworth is wearing a peach fur stole. Frank Sinatra has approximately half a tube of Brylcreme in his hair. This movie is fabulous.

Incidentally, what was "The Lady is a Tramp" originally from? The line, "Hates California, it's cold and it's damp," is puzzling me.

Our wings are not tired

That is from the musical Babes in Arms.

Hil, it's a song sung from a New York perspective. That line is kind of taking a swipe a California. No, California isn't cold and damp (well... San Francisco is....), but that's supposed to be the sort of snotty thing a NY socialite might say to be witty.

Or, at least, that's my understanding.

It was also written for a female character, even though it was later popularized by male singers.

I think I'm overthinking this song.

At the moment, SoCal is cold(ish) and damp.

Interesting. Two songs from Babes in Arms (Lady is a Tramp and My Funny Valentine) are used in the Pal Joey movie.
