Wash: Little River just gets more colorful by the moment. What'll she do next? Zoe: Either blow us all up or rub soup in our hair. It's a toss-up. Wash: I hope she does the soup thing. It's always a hoot, and we don't all die from it.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Count me in, Allyson. Just let me know where to send the money. I can PayPal it to you if you have an account.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Gandalfe, usually when we make a donation to a charity or give a gift as a group, I collect the money via paypal (sometimes folks mail me a check) and then I write a check and send a letter explaining that the donation is on behalf of Buffistas.org

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

That's what I thought, just wanted to make sure I Paypal'd the right person. And I'm truly embarrased that I just used Paypal as a verb.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I just used Paypal as a verb.

And later, someone can Nilly the info in their meara.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I think we should make Allyson a verb to mean graciously collecting donations for charity.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

But you'll have opposition from those that want to use "Allyson" to mean "to wittily eviscerate".

It could get confusing.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

(Psst. Allyson, check Sang Sacre. Someone left tribute to you.)

Nobody

I think "to ita" already stands for "to eviscerate." We could Allysonly ita someone, I suppose.

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

I think "to ita" already stands for "to eviscerate."

Really? I think of ita more as a head-kicker. Of course, we did just send her two knives.
