Buffistas

Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

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

When you leave grammar, you've gone to the dark side.

Are you telling me there is no (other) instance of ungrammatical-yet-acceptable-because-amusing plays on words in literature or popular culture? I wish I were more than passing familiar with Shakespeare's works; I'll bet he coined a few of them.

Also, cookies.

It's not supposed to be grammatical, it's supposed to be amusing! It's a play on words! Why is there no whimsy in your soul?

It's not a play on words; it's a threat! Threats have way more teeth when they're grammatical!

My whimsy was in the tooth that got pulled. I had a whimsectomy.

Please tell me no one here says "for all intensive purposes." Please. Can I cling to that hope?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Tep's been de-whimsified! Oh no!

Annie's Boobs! Blorgons!

We may need to install bionic zombie whimsy.

I just threw up in my mouth a little.

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

I made a batch of molasses cooks in the mountains this weekend, and I threw the last of them in the freezer. So three are defrosting on the counter right now. Go me.

Tim just told me he didn't know it wasn't "For all intensive purposes."

I think I'll let him live. MAYBE.

He's remaining totally neutral on the thing/think issue. (I suspect he believes we are all totally crazy.)
