DH came home with a basket of Vampire Wine, chocolate and a comic book shop gift certificate for my birthday! We're ordering Chinese food for dinner.
Mal: If anyone gets nosy, just, you know... shoot 'em. Zoe: Shoot 'em? Mal: Politely.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
There's an Internet Law out there somewhere that says that it's impossible to create a parody of fundamentalism so outrageous that it will never be mistaken for the real thing. P-C's link reminded me of it.
As I read it, I thought, "...I can actually imagine some people truly think like this."

Our wings are not tired.
You don't need to be friends with someone to be able to poke them (on Facebook).
ETA: I just checked, and it looks like you can send someone a message (depending on their privacy settings) if you're not friends with them, but not necessarily poke them. I don't recall that being the case a few weeks ago.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Not sure if this has been discussed elsewhere. It seems that women are ruining sci-fi. [link]

People, I have a problem. I am searching ebay for vintage Xmas ornaments! A) It's only October B)I already have enough ornaments to trim two full-sized trees. C) Am considering putting up two trees even though I will not be here for Xmas to justify my hoard.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
DW and I are also ornament hoarders. We have one big tree and another small tree that are both filled with ornaments when we decorate. Still we buy them and we can't bear to cull any of the old ones. Love them!

Yup, I'm watching that tonight! I actually came here to post that!
So for everyone having a bad day, may I present my minion's bad day: She took her car into the dealership for routine warranteed maintenance. A friend who works in sales there calls to tell her she just walked by the service bays, and the bumper is cracked. She hauls ass over there. How did the bumper get cracked? When they towed it to another bay. Why did they have to tow it? Well, it seems they cracked her engine block and it won't start now. Note, they haven't called her once. If she didn't know someone there, she still wouldn't know. THEY BROKE HER CAR. Service manager and customer service rep were conveniently out today. So she went to the owner, who had no idea this was going on. No resolution as of when I left, and the owner still hadn't called her back. Her husband (a car guy: he built some of the tricked out cars for those car-centric Vin Diesel flicks. It's what he does) had headed over to have a talk since she was still at work. Seriously?!! The poor woman. She's just laughing helplessly cause she can't quite believe it.
