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.

There's a bug flying around his head.

It's attracted to the rotting carcass of his soul.

Amy in Delurking:
It's always like coming home to that rambling but comfortable house where everyone is usually cozily tucked into random nooks and corners, talking, but gets together in the big ballroom once in a while to get crazy and tackle-hug. I miss it.

Nate Silver threw his abacus and dry-erase markers into the fire and said, "Fuck it" at least 6 months ago.
Raq in Bitches on the Pencil Pouch Audit:
My son needs a pencil pouch audit day. Also possibly an ass-with-both-hands audit day.
Steph L in Natter:
I do actually believe it will be better out on the other side, but DAMN. I really thought it was, like, an archery class at Camp Butterworth, not the goddamn Hunger Games.
In Movies:
Sophia Brooks: I am watching Deliverance for the first time. What in the heck is Burt Reynolds wearing ????
Tom Scola: The 1970s.
esse: Two of my close RL friends had hysterectomies this year. It felt like we should start a punch card or something.

Hey, it's a Monday.... So I had to come up with a diplomatic way to say "Dear author, 'When Cannabis Strikes the Retina' [that was seriously the title] is in no way a scientific title that reflects the content of the article and if I left the title as is, senior management would have come down on me like a ton of bricks and by the way, you are not as clever as you think."

WHEN CANNABIS ATTACKS, tonight on FOX! Are YOUR retinas safe??
Steph L.
Right? How on earth they thought that title was going to be okay is beyond me. (They're French, so maybe they thought everything in the US was like reality TV.)

Kinda sounds like a weird translation of Smoke Gets in Your Eyes.

Dude, have you ever noticed what cannabis does to your retinas? I mean, like, really noticed...
Steph L.
I'm looking at my retinas from inside my skull...
