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.
ita in Natter:
You white people are like glitter. You get absolutely everywhere.
Kat in Natter:
The precursor:
Brave. Very, very brave.
The gods' honest truth:
Or very very stupid. If you squint your eyes, they often look like the same thing.
Can't believe no one's posted this. In Natter:
Cashmere: What's a mouse?
Polter-Cow: It's like a touchpad you can throw at the wall.
In the Gaming thread, the latest BSG game has reached the trash-talking stage:
chrismg: You have now expended both your Super Crises, and done less damage to our resources than Apollo did with his Emergencies.
-t: I have to say "We can punch ourselves in the face harder than you just hit us" is a pretty funny taunt.
The inimitable ita!
Do you have any idea how many people I just killed with my bare hands (that wasn't the bad part of the dream)
Toddson. Bitches.
Someone once asked me what you could use tofu for. My response? "I hear it makes pretty good insulation." (YTofuMV)
Toddson. Natter.
Give me the internet and a board to post on and I can move the world.
While comparing notes on the Great East Coast Earthquake of '11, sarameg commented,

I decided this really did need context:
Erin in Bitches:
Yep, the Tooth Fairy. Wearing scrubs and a pair of wings, and teaching dental hygiene to elementary-school kids.
Pros -- Dude, I'm a melodramatic fool when it comes to teaching. And I could get paid to wear glitter and wings to work!
Cons -- Some days, I could easily see myself as that cynical type of cigarette-smoking, flask-sipping anti-fairy: "Bitches, brush your motherfucking teeth. It ain't hard. Up down, all around. Now bring momma a bucket of fries and a martini."
Dear god, why am I up so early?
Laga:
You have to get the teeth while the kids are still asleep.
