msbelle - So a newish fun thing with my fibro -everytime a weather front moves through - I get massive headache and my whole body hurts. So I slept from 11pm last night to 3pm !!!! ANd my head still hurts. I should probably take an advil?
-t - Speaking as someone who habitually forgets about painkillers, yeah take an Advil.
ita ! - GET IN FRONT OF THE PAIN.
Connie Neil - Yeah, that just means I'll have tire tracks on my back when it runs me down.

So if Joe Biden and Ben Bernanke want to man up and do a replay of Burr/Hamilton, then they should take care of business in Florida.
A Burr/Hamilton joke is ALWAYS quotable.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

-t: My sister majored in, hm, Contemplative Movement? Something like that. And she kind of uses it, whatever it was called.
flea: Contemplative Movement? Pardon my releasing my inner 12-year-old but that sounds like deep thoughts while taking a shit.
-t: That may have been part of the curriculum!

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
more than teary than coffee, tbh
SuziQ: I'm sorry that buffistas have the experience to provide me with such information, but I'm grateful for you sharing the information.
Connie Neil: Glad to be the scout on this trail, maybe I can be the only one to take the trip.

Why is my work teleconference starting with talk of a vomiting child?
Shrift:
Maybe they just wanted to help you reaffirm your life choices?

Nothing says "dinner's ready" quite like the smell of melted tupperware.
Makes me laugh 'cause ... well, it's happened.

But behavior I find off-putting in a tortoise is really unacceptable in any kind of public figure.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Matt the Bruins fan -
I was encouraging one of my supervisors (whom I'd have invited to become a buffista long ago if not for the fact that this is where I come to vent about work) to borrow my Teen Wolf DVDs based on his love of Buffy. And then walked alone a quarter mile through a winding forest road in the pitch dark to get to my car, and only realized mid-walk that I was doing exactly what I've called Scott McCall out on as a dumbass for doing at the start of said series. Thankfully the only wild creatures that bit me were mosquitos, but as I was shuffling along by the dim light of my cellphone I was imagining "...and that was the last anyone ever saw of him!" as my epitaph.
ita ! - "he was a nice guy, but more importantly, too well-steeped in pop culture to wander off through the woods after a bittersweet party. That took us all by surprise. You think you know a guy, and then...boom! You find he has habits you couldn't even dream of sharing.
"But we would have listened--we just didn't hear what he was so desperately screaming. At least he didn't take that new guy (virgin) he'd developed a crush on. Small mercy, given the tragedy, but it's all we have to hold onto right now."

Rick in Natter:
My parents had four kids, and I know they were disappointed to find themselves reaching old-age without any grandchildren, even though they were careful to hide it. When I called my father at age 86 to tell him he had twin grandsons on the way his response was "You're cutting it kind of close, aren't you?"
