Pondering family, in Bitches:
Ginger:
Why is family a good thing, again?
Steph L:
Because we aren't hatched from eggs wrapped up in $100 bills.
Anya Christina Emmanuella Jenkins. Twenty years old. Born on the fourth of July — and don't think there weren't jokes about that my whole life, mister, 'cause there were. 'Who's our little patriot?' they'd say, when I was younger and therefore smaller and shorter than I am now.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
In Bitches, concerning the appropriate way to break the news of a relative's passing:
Steph:
I offer the strongest proof I can think of that I was raised by wolves: my mom just sent me an e-mail with the subject line "Uncle Woody Died."
In. The. Subject. Line.
Erika:
Jesus, Steph's Mom, can't you say he was up on the roof first?

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Seriously, how is it possible I'm the first one to repost this?
Sean, in Bitches. Context would be pointless:
I half expect her to tattoo (C)(R)(TM) all over her vajayjay next, and then send out a C&D letter to all 3.5 billion women on the planet.

Scola, in Natter:
Why should I assume it's Missouri Day just because you told me? Can you show me that it's Missouri Day?

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Not especially funny, but worth noting, I think. In Natter,
Cashmere:
I hate those seriously introspective moments. I wish I could be oblivious to the shitty things I've done in the past. But then I remember that knowing they were shitty makes me a better person in the future.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
If we could embed animated GIFs, I would just have done this.

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
Tom Scola: Sheen’s rep, by the way, characterized Sheen’s outburst as “an adverse allergic reaction to some medication.”
Jesse: Yeah, I'm allergic to too much booze and blow, myself.

Cass: Kittenish tried to steal pizza from me tonight. It had zero ingredients she'd like to nom, but it was there and she had to try. Thankfully she hasn't taught the dumb one any bad habits. And since K is old, she can pretty much do what she likes so long as she stops trying to eat my food when I am still eating it.
