Ginger: I know a frequent flyer whose motto is "If you've never missing a plane, you've wasted too much of your life in airports."
And remember, if you hurt her, I will beat you to death with a shovel.

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

Gudanov, in Natter, on the ridiculousness of HR-speak:
Sing it. I hate seeing that "We are looking for people passionate about [some corporate task nobody in the history of everything has ever been passionate about]". What's next "We are looking for people who achieve sexual climax when scheduling conferences"?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
From Natter.
msbelle: ....a magnetic elf, some cilantro, and a spork walk into a bar.
Perkins: Was one of them carrying a root?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Also Natter:
Calli: Go not to the elves for cooking, for they will run both hot and cold.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated
Yet more Natter:
ita: Words with Friends wouldn't let me play "slut." I'm a bit offended.
aurelia: Words with Friends has denied other mildly off-color words for me. It's a little prudish.
ita: I checked their word list, and it's on there, but they say they don't allow offensive words. I know it was blocking something else for me I was sure was a word, and I guess that was it too.
Erin: Hmph. Words with friends does not know their etymology very well, because slut only came to mean a promiscuous woman fiarly recently.
For centuries, it meant a slovenly woman, usually in a housekeeping or an appearance contest. That's why an old term for dust bunnies is "slut's wool."
msbelle: and Cinderella was once Cinderslut!
Calli: I bet there's porn where she still is.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Steph in Natter:
Lie back and think of quadratic equations.
Unless you dig quadratic equations. In which case, keep your kinky freaky math to yourself.

More Natter.
flea: Dmitri Medvedev has an LJ. Presumably is it not about, say, Winchesters.

Liese S.: Seriously, people. I am an actual missionary, one who has only ever had sex with her husband, and I don't just do missionary position. I mean, come on. Vanilla is as vanilla does.

erikaj: Oh, dear God, why can't there be a social worker who's not an asshole? Of course, last time we met, he actually stood up for the Hayes code. I should feel sorry, being that he's the most obvious closet case since Ricky Martin,(way not as cute..way) but Jesus Christ! Sign my paperwork and go away, Garment Bag!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
