In Natter, Teppy answering a question about a quote from a children's book:
Steph: The Little Red Hen (or, as you may like to call it after you read it, Fuck Alla Y'all): [link].
Tara: Do you have any books on robots? Giles: Oh, yes, dozens. There's a lot of research to be done in order to--no, I'm lying. Haven't got squat. I just like watching Xander squirm.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

In F2F thread, Matt The Bruins Fan gives opinion on mansion idea with 4+ sharing a bedroom:
I am only OK with 4+ to a room if there's something very scary outside the room trying to get in.

DavidS: Just dropped Matilda off at her second camp of the summer. First she did a week and a half of Camp Tofu.
Steph: What does Camp Tofu entail? (I hope the answer involves really good pad thai.)
Gud: I assume you go out into nature and absorb the flavors.

Our wings are not tired.
In Natter: who needs stinking context?
Matt the Bruins Fan: When dealing with the TSA and boarding agents at an airport I can certainly understand the urge to murder people in grisly fashion before taking off in flight, so perhaps the metaphor is still an apt one?

Jesse, dare I say it, trumping my remark in Natter:
Dana: OMG, I'm trying to be snarky on FB and almost used "trump" as a verb (in its normal sense), and then realized I needed to find another word to use.
I went with "one-up."
Me: Stupid orange-headed fool taking perfectly good words away from us. I see outraged bridge clubs muttering dolefully into their tea cakes.
Jesse: Or passive-aggressively poking at each other. "Three NO TRUMP!!!!"

You know what's awesome in an overwhelming way? Mountain Dew with lemon vodka. It tastes like a melted alcoholic lollipop. Super refreshing, as your eyes roll back.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Dana in Natter, definitely not being sarcastic:
Woohoo, chaos at work. This is definitely the best thing that ever happened to me since I got my sarcasm module removed.

What is even happening?
Natter...
Dana: My neighbor is coming over. Here you can see the shakiness of my principles -- he's a Trump supporter, and yet I needed someone to deal with the bug.
Connie Neil: The perfect person to deal with not-quite-dead roaches!

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Matt the Bruins fan in Boxed Set:
At this point they should have Mandy Patinkin dress up as Inigo Montoya and tell Barry that sometimes you just have to let things go.
