And Then They All Died
Jillian: Joss said he didn't write second drafts, and JJ Abrams just looks at him and goes, 'You don't write second drafts? You bastard!' and walked off for a few minutes.
Me: And then everyone in the audience died. And that was the end of ComiCon.

There Is No Title For The Fantasticness That Is...
Christine: I'M with Jill right now. I think the appropriate words are "neener neener"
Me: well, I have a chocolate shake. *sticks tongue out in childish yet superior way*
Christine: "childish yet superior"? You go with that :)
Me: it's childish, but clearly superior to your "neener neener"
Christine: I just said aloud that I now want a chocolate shake. Jill said: "you want one? I can make you one!" lol...neener neener trumps all.
Me: nope, cos now you want a chocolate shake ;)
Christine: you suck

Neener, Neener, Neener
Me: ...neener, neener, neener!
Jillian: Did you just "neener, neener, neener" our homework?
Me: No, I "neener, neener neener'd" Christine. (beat) Did we just use "neener, neener, neener" in a sentence three times?

It's Art
Me: Oh, what a lovely sketchbook.
Courtney: Thank you. Taryn gave it to me for my birthday. Now I'm filling it with sketches of naked people.
Me: *wtf?*
Courtney: Would you like to see the naked people?
Note, Courtney's an art student. It's for a class.

Bringing Back Glam Rock
Student: There's glitter on your nose...
Prof: Ok. I'm not telling you where I was now.
Student: But it involved glitter and (small hand-held) fans?

White Water Rafting? Why Not Blue Water?
Jillian: It shouldn't be 'blue water.' That's a misnomer. Brown water's bad too. And red water's REALLY BAD. It can mean death.
Christine: Purple water's bad too. It means there's a mill upstream.
Jillian: *wtf?*
Christine: Purple. Dye. Textile factory.
Jillian: Apparently it also means it's the 1890s!
