Zoe: I thought you wanted to spend more time off-ship this visit. Wash: Out there is seems like it's all fancy parties. I like our party better. The dress code is easier and I know all the steps.

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

...Do all martial artists develop their own style of fighting or something?

Bruce Lee did!

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

krav manga is a joke, I wish someone would try that style on me.

I guarantee you, sir, not half as much as I do.

He really should have that wish fulfilled (amusing typo or lack of education aside). There should be a Make a Wish for situations like this. I'd donate. And make popcorn.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

A burrito for $1.75! Woo hoo Taco/Burrito Tuesdays at Dona Rosa!

What! That's crazy. How big was it? Was it burrito-size?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Maybe we can write up a Kickstarter proposal! We can film it and show it every Christmas.

"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

Most martial arts are adapted for marketing, not actual fighting. krav manga is a joke, I wish someone would try that style on me.

Oh, to be able to watch ita give him an Anya-style "Done!" and then make his wish come true.

The latest sample of trolliciousness from the Buffy study thread

OMG, where is this, JZ? I'm dying to watch.

Here you go, 'Suela. The article itself is mildly interesting, summarizing a study that was clearly someone's first-year grad school project and no doubt flawed as all hell but still entertaining, but the comment thread is a truly delicious feast of witless pomposity and "Why does the entire universe not bow down before the magnificent edifice that is my colossal cock?" pity partying.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

dismissing most of what they say as irrelevant, listening only for symptoms, and prescribing the same medicine they prescribe every time they hear those symptoms, which half the time doesn't work

Oh yay, more doctor bashing, how I haven't missed you from this forum.

Oh, that article. Man, that was weeks ago! Amazing it's still going on.

And yeah, the Atlantic comments sections are a hive of villainy, once you venture outside TNC's walled (and well-pruned) garden.
