I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

From the Fan Fiction thread:

Dana: What about the right of the internet to express itself any way it damn well wants?

DebetEsse: As a denizen of Tumblr and a Tag Wrangler on AO3, I'm going to say that there's not a power in the 'verse that can stop the Internet from expressing itself any way it damn well wants.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

From Natter:

msbelle: Actual quote just said to me "What the fuck is tiramisu?"

shrift: It's "pick me up with those delicious, coffee-dusted ladyfingers, baby" followed with a clarification that Marscapone is not a fish.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

In Natter 72:

Pix: I will not engage with crazy wrong-headed people on the Internet.

billytea: Aw. I wanted to ask how you were doing.

brenda m: Someone in my meeting just used the term "downgrowth".

le nubian: take care to put a pillow on the table first BEFORE you bang your head against it.

sue: It would be a much better use of that pillow to smother the person who just used downgrowth.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

In Natter --

Sophia: I just read a job description at work at it requires a "two year degree in word-processing studies". Is that even a thing?

msbelle: If it is a thing, it is the worst thing ever.

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

In Natter--

Matt the Bruins fan: We should have known that a tropical storm/hurricane sharing a name with Karen from Will & Grace would head for the largest concentration of booze available but stumble and fall before it got there.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Ginger:
There's a place in the special hell for people who tell you after you've spent a lot on something that you could have done it cheaper.

They might have their own circle. But it's marked down.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Tom Scola, in Boxed Set:

I wanted a Danger Mouse reboot, but then I realized we already have Sherlock.

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

Ginger: I'm beginning to think I should start a blog called "Fukushima Won't Kill You (But I'm Thinking About It)."

Cass: I'd subscribe.

Also it sounds like it should be a Fall Out Boy song title. Which is not a bad thing to me.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I'm catching up in Boxed Set and there were some gems:

Teppy and DH on Reign:

When I saw the commercial, I asked Tim, "Wait, THE Nostradamus?"

Tim: "Is there another? Joe Nostradamus?"

And bonny on the new Dracula:

In the ballroom scene, I thought, "Wow. Vera Wang has been in business for a looooong time."
