Spherical ice cubes don't melt as fast as cube-cube ones because of the lower surface area. ("Don't dilute your drink" is absurd, though - they just dilute it slower.)
Inara: So. Would you like to lecture me on the wickedness of my ways? Book: I brought you some supper, but if you'd prefer a lecture, I've a few very catchy ones prepped. Sin and hellfire... one has lepers.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
If I could bear to have a nightlight I'd love the T-rex one. I think I'd have to superglue a monopoly house under his foot thought.

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

That's what I was thinking, but then they'd do less cooling of your drink as well, as the vast majority of the cooling that ice cubes do to your drink comes from the melting ice.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I can trade you the 3 baskets of clean laundry that are in my living room, Perkins. Some of it is even folded, but putting it away is not happening.
That's very exciting, Suzi! Free carpet cleaning is a big win.
Like haloumi?
Probably, it looks kind of toasted already. Oh, but the fresh sliced picture doesn't look browned. I don't know.

I'm nowhere near unscrupulous enough to claim to be this woman's next-of-kin, but I kind of wish I was!

Always Anti-fascist!
From way back, like Hecubus, I'm shocked there are so many Northern Exposure newbies on here. ION, phone bank was cool until I interrupted the couple that was making it(although I won't say "making love," because they took my call, right?) Feeling a bit like a sexless civics bot at the moment. Don't like.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I wish my clothes were in my living room. It would make going to bed tonight much easier.

Because books.
Put them on the guest room bed, Perkins!

Ooooh, excellent mystery! I love that stuff!
Wow, someone take my exclamation points away.

Now that is a good old-fashioned New York heiress story. Nice.
