I've stapled myself by accident too many times to be stapled on purpose.
Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Some stuff just doesn't make sense. But it's fun.
Yeah. That's why I stuck a fork in an electrical outlet when I was three.
I mean, I knew it was wrong, and that I'd get a shock and that it was dangerous, but still... fun.
OK, off to add the preceding to my list of "stuff not to say to a three-year-old"....

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
For the record: yeah, it hurt.
Steph, you just have to ask. I'll tell you what hurts and what doesn't. We're friends. I'd do that for you.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
But it's fun.
That's the key.

Unless you're tommy! Then I discourage it.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Yeah. That's why I stuck a fork in an electrical outlet when I was three.
We have a story in my family about that kind of thing. When my sister was about that same age, she stuck a metal nail file in an electrical outlet, over the loud complaints of our eldest sister. Sister got a shock and let go and cried and refused to pull it out again. So biggest sister had to pull it out for her--and get shocked herself in the process.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
You should film that and show it every Christmas.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Whitefonted for the sqeamish
When I was 5, my mother told my sister (within my earshot) not to let me put my hand in the blender while my mother was on the phone
I don't think my sister has ever really forgiven me for that one.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
The argument they're making is that if you get money from the government without working for it, you should have to take a drug test.
So ... can we expect drug tests for the CEOs of the oil companies, big banks, etc.?
