Plei in Natter:
Jesus, people. Go Galt already and stop polluting our Intertubes.
Saffron: But we've been wed. Aren't we to become one flesh? Mal: Well, no, uh... We're still two fleshes here, and I think that your flesh ought to sleep somewhere else.

In Music:
Fred Pete: My favorite bit of rock musician-education trivia is that Mick Jagger studied at the London School of Economics.
Corwood Industries: Which of course led to their famous lyric "but what can a poor boy do?/except analyze the deadweight loss when the supply curve modulates downward following the marginal rate of change in the futures market?"

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.
Laga, in Bitches:
D: you're not wrapping a present for the cat, are you?
Me: Not only am I wrapping a present for the cat, but I've been waiting all day for her to go outside so it would be a surprise. And now I'm putting her name on the tag.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Stalking the wild Ryan in Bitches:
JZ - I love the Ryan stories. We don't get nearly enough of them (it's almost as if you're off spending your time actually interacting with him or something).
billytea - Actually, I've constructed a hide in his playpen so I can observe him in his natural habitat. To date, he seems to have accepted that giant stuffed pandas are just supposed to have binoculars protruding from their midriff, but I can say that the hides used for the Attenborough specials don't run such a risk of cuddles.
Miracleman - ...the wild Ryan, in its natural surroundings, is truly breathtaking to behold. Note the total confidence, the unconcerned manner in which it lolls on its bwankie. This creature is totally in command of its environment.
...Jim is now going to try to get a little closer to the Ryan. Go ahead, Jim. Jim, just go. Go! Jim is creeping closer to the Ryan. We are confident that, though the Ryan can be dangerous, Jim is entirely protected by his fwuffy teddy beaw camouflage.
That's it, Jim. That's...oh, God. Oh, GOD! JIM! Look out! Oh, Lord, it's got him! It's...oh, it's too horrible...it's SNUGGLING Jim, it's...I can't look...
...Oh, the drool! THE DROOL! OH, GOD!
We'll return to Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom after these messages...

I truly love wrapping the blanket of Buffista holiday stories around me as I fall asleep.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Is it just me who finds this juxtaposition in Bitches funny?
WindSparrow - [snip] we paid a guy to plow our driveway today. He only charged $10 extra to tow Daniel's car out so he could get the job done. I'll be 40 next month; I'm sick of shoveling snow; and, I have neglected to provide myself with teenagers.
DCJensen - I'm not dead yet. I gave her the last two (of 6) I had.

Well, when you say it like that....

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
tommyrot: "Clean your cat's teeth" sounds like something God would tell you to do just to test you. Sorta' like God telling Abraham, "Kill me a son." Then He's all, "Just kidding. Now clean your cat's teeth."
