| QUOTE |
| Sonnywolferine's sister is named Storm Cristal Brandy Tanisha Linda Genevieve Saffron Bronwen Hart and he has a brother called Troy. |
which prompts Luthien to ask,
| QUOTE |
| Where'd they get a weird name like Troy? |

From the Laura Ingalls Wilder thread, following the revelation that, despite some confusion, the Ingall's family tree was not in fact something that could have been designed by V.C. Andrews.

| Well, that makes me feel better. I just couldn't bear the thought of some V.C. Andrews shit going down in the Big Woods. |

| Plus, I can't really imagine Laura screaming at Ma "EAT THE COOKIE, MOTHER." Ma'd probably slap her down with a skillet, or something. |
I really wish I had internet at home right now, so I wouldn't be sitting in a computer lab trying to stifle giggles.

| QUOTE | I thought Prince was in the bathroom. Heh. |
Prince does not go to the bathroom. Prince's bodily waste is converted into sparkly silver graffiti. Once a day, specially chosen young women perform a ritual in which said silver is removed from Prince's body.

I saw this and thought it should go straight to META.

Wait. Monk is unpopular? I love that show!
I think the acting is very well done, the writing witty. And who doesn't love the Captain?

When I rolled out of bed this afternoon I said to myself "Today i will get metaquoted"
Thank you Buffalo Bill
Marrow in the Golden Globes thread about Jack Nicholson.
| QUOTE |
| Like Al Pacino, I think Jack has it in him to take some chances, but it takes a strong director to convince him to do so. It would be fun to see him in the Alan I-love-him Arkin role in Little Miss Sunshine, but he'd just eat every piece of scenery, including the van. And then he'd date Abigal Breslin. |
