Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

During the Presidential Debates, in Natter

Nora: IF ONLY THERE WAS SOME WAY THAT WOMEN COULD TAKE CONTROL OF THEIR LIVES AND MAKE DECISIONS FOR THEMSELVES SO THAT UNWANTED PREGNANCIES COULD BE AVOIDED.

Jessica: Nora, you seem angry. That time of the month?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

In Natter:

Consuela: Me, I've been baking like a fiend.

billytea:

  • Heat brimstone-fuelled oven to "Hellfire".

  • Pour devil's food cake into nonstick pan.

  • Sprinkle with desecrated coconut.

  • Bake for 1 hour.

  • AND THEN MY CAKE SHALL RISE!!

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

Sophia Brooks: Is there ever a time when you can use decimate properly?

Jessica: Florida's policies regarding ex-felons have decimated their voter registrations?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

In Natter:

le nubian: What I don't understand is that Sandy is supposed to be the good girl, and Rizzo is the one to watch out for.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

billytea in Natter:

Old Russian saying, I learned from a Robin Williams movie: "Expect the worst, hope for the best."

Yep, that sounds like just about the right attitude to adopt going into a Robin Williams movie.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Context is really flexible on this one:

yes, it is amusing we are having this discussion. but put my level of surprise at zero.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Calli: I get ads saying not to vote for the House incumbent because he went to college where he learned to hate America. Just like Obama. Hand to Gaia, the ad literally says that.

billytea: It's a surprisingly popular major!

And still more about the silly season:

Teppy: I DEEPLY resent seeing both political ads AND Christmas commercials. I'd like to get through politician-buying season before I start buying Christmas presents.
