In Natter, bon bon sets it up, Ginger knocks it down:
After more than a decade, haven't we porned ourselves out?
Have you met us?
Who among us can ignore the allure of really funny math puns?

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
Erin: I really don't care...they're boobs, they're pretty nice ones, and I'll never run for office.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
In Bitches, Steph L: Our bed is so high that a box spring would require that we pole-vault into bed.
Connie Neil: And that would be a problem?
Steph L: I have a bad back, he has bad knees, and I am so clumsy (think Mr. Bean) that I would break my face on my first try. Plus the bedroom is too small to really get a running start.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
The place: Natter. The topic: religious education.
Liese S: I think Noah's definitely old enough to hear about God without believing it. I mean, I know kids that age who can articulate why they don't believe in Santa, even though they're willing to let other kids celebrate without disabusing them of their notions.
ita: Which would make him a nicer kid than me, because I was a disabusing little bitchette. No praying during Monopoly! First off, there's no God otherwise there'd be dinosaurs in the Bible, and secondly, if there is, he's not allowed to help your dice roll.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Dana, in Natter:
I'm waiting for tile guys. Again. It's a lot like waiting for Godot.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Liese, in Business Talk:
I am at the portion of my fundraising summer where I want to grab the children by their lapels (okay, I know children's clothing doesn't actually have lapels, just work with me here) and shout, "Just give me the damn money, tiny motherfuckers!" But I suspect that the church camp may be looking for a slightly different approach.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Ginger writes what just might be the perfect Buffista dating profile, in Bitches:
I believe in proper capitalization; the agreement of subjects and verbs; and a generous sprinkling of complete sentences. Also, I believe in making the red squiggly line go away.
I prefer long walks in a museum to long walks on the beach.
Try to hold my hand when we first meet and you risk losing yours.
I have already found myself. Now I'd like to lose myself again. I am not interested in spiritual quests of any kind.
Being called a lady makes me break out in hives.
To me, LOL means "please go away."

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Frankenbuddha responding to Hec in Natter:
David S: I drank my fiber supplement and topped it with a bowl of raisin bran and strawberries. I'm fiber full.
Frankenbuddha: Probably not for long, though.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
erikaj in Cable Drama:
I know just enough about most things to be clinically unsatisfied.

In Bitches:
askye: according to the Idiot's Guide saying that you Need something makes you, well, needy and the Universe doesn't like that. The Universe likes it better when you WANT something because then you can take it or leave it and the Universe rewards that kind of thinking.
amych: Wow. I think I met the Universe in a bar this one time back when I was single.
DavidS: I knew it. The Universe is a douchebag.
