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

I think the most Christmassy smell of all is a couple dozen cloves shoved into an orange.

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

Shove that up a roasting turkey's butt and it's totally Christmas. Hint of pine, maybe.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I love clove oranges. We used to make them as kids. I should try it with mine this year.

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

Mmm, yes, clove oranges. That's what we always used to mull cider. And probably some other stuff, but stuffing cloves into the orange was the job of any kids that were handy.

I always wanted to shove cloves into a tangerine because I bet it would hurt less. I should try that...
