Look, you got a little stabbed the other day. That's bound to make anyone a mite ornery.

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

I should note--it's not that he doesn't drink. It's that it's too early to drink.

This is not a complaint I have ever heard from any of my British co-workers.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Especially not Champagne! That's breakfast drinking for sure.

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

Mimosas! Crazy person. They are made for morning.

New Guy keeps giving me printouts. I am in content management. I aspire to a paperless office. I can't get him to accept that. I don't care that he needs it on paper. I don't.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Besides, it's totally time to drink in Europe!

Matilda refers to Gwen Stefani as The Other Pink.

That's kind of awesome.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

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

That's kind of awesome.

Yeah. I mean, I dig Gwen on her own merits, but that's funny.

Matilda's favorite, though, is probably Goldfrapp. She refers to "Twist" as "the train song" - you'd have to see the video. It has a lot of fairly rude sexual imagery which goes right by her. I might have to censor it when she's 10.

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

She refers to "Twist" as "the train song"

But then what does she call "Train"?

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

But then what does she call "Train"?

She hasn't seen that one yet.

Her requests are like this: "I want the happy Pink song. I want the sad Pink. I want the Other Pink. I want the Noodle sad song ("Feel Good, Inc." by Gorillaz). I want Noodle dancing ("Dare" - Gorillaz.) I want the song where they throw paper balls at the bad boy ("16 Military Wives" - Decemberists).

Has she seen Peter Gabriel's "Sledgehammer" video? I wonder what she'd call that....
