It's entirely possible that people shorten it in different ways.
Wesley: All right. I'm going to let you all in on something you may have trouble comprehending. I assure you however-- Gunn: Vampires are real. Wesley: I was telling!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
It's pretty likely that I'm not hearing what people are actually saying.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Hmmm. I just got an email from a friend saying she had bad news to convey that should be over the phone.
Good news that needs to be conveyed over the phone means babies or marriage.
Bad news means death or cancer.
I don't think she'd broach her bad news that way. So I think it's our friend in common that she'd be telling me about. Who already had cancer.
So I think our mutual friend might've died.
Not looking forward to this phone call.

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

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Oh, I am sorry, David. And I hope you can talk soon to know for certain.
It's snowing. There was an intense wind swirl so it looked kinda like hyperspace. I threw another log on the fire and poured another half glass of wine.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
At first I was worried about the woman who emailed me, but now that I let the tumblers fall I think that must be it.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Oh, I'm sorry, Hec.

My sympathies.
That is really a charming obit. There's a sense of who she was.
