Rick: Changing the names of things gives an illusion of progress with very little expenditure of effort. That makes it a popular option.
Mal: Inara, think you could stoop to being on my arm? Inara: Will you wash it first?

Matt the Bruins fan: I don't know whether to be appalled by this and 50 Shade of Grey or enthusiastic at the signs that there will eventually be a Dean/Cas movie.

Connie Neil in Marvel Universe:
The utter blaseness in the face of oratical evil just makes me happy. "You didn't tell me he was this crazy." "He's really stepped it up a notch." You expect them to hold up scoring signs for Dr. Doom speeches or something. I guess the apparent history of mutual snark makes me happy.
"Why the hell did you give that incoherent rant a 9, Coulson?"
"I was impressed by his use of alliteration in the middle, sir."
"OK, yeah, that was good, but he lost points when he tried to work in the speech before Agincourt."
"You're right, 'we few, we happy few' doesn't really apply to cybernetic mollusks."

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Teppy speaking for us all in Natter:

I want to write everything in Comic Sans now. I really really do. I love Comic Sans.
Steph L.
I am pointing at you and screaming like Donald Sutherland in Body Snatchers.
Just so you know.

In Natter,
Zenkitty: Interesting stuff happening today. Family intrigue. I'll either get money or a torrid novel out of it.

There is so much before and after to that comic sans bit that it can't be in here, but it should be.

But if Zen had a giant dick, I would totally be on it.

More of the whole Natter convo, edited:
Zenkitty: I haven't replied to him yet. I have to calm down enough to write an email that isn't going to get me fired. Yeah, he's a giant dick. He's a Fellow, he's been writing for us for twenty years or more, and he used to be the EiC for another of our journals (he was a dick over there too), so he really ought to know better than this crap.
Perspective, I haz it. I'm just gonna sit here in the air conditioning with my pizza and hard cider, and calmly wish fleas on my giant dick of an author.
Connie Neil: On my screen, the line ends with
"calmly wish fleas on my giant dick"
and I blinked in severe startlement until realizing A) I don't believe Zen has a giant dick, and B) the sentence continues.
flea: But if Zen had a giant dick, I would totally be on it.
Zenkitty: Why, flea, I'm flattered! Indeed, if I had a giant dick, everyone would be invited to be on it, because I'm generous that way.
msbelle_Rebecca: you people.
If I missed your comment, I apologize. I tried to capture the whole gestalt of the thing....
