[QOTW] QOTW Honorable Mentions, September 6

[Quote of the Week]

"So get a G-mail account, an honor that sets you apart from the rest of
mankind and other species that know how to use computers, such as

"It's like an acid trip." -Some guy at Cirque de Soleil

founder

"I think it's really important to go to the ghetto Southern
tournaments--such as all of them." -Chris, of Swarthmore's Peasley Debate
Society (Quoter's note: I do not fully understand this quote, but I
encourage you to form a mental picture of students from Swarthmore College
acting like ghetto Southerners while debating.)

Square

And now, a blast from the past: a bunch of quotes that should have been
nominated or honorably mentioned weeks ago, but somehow vanished into the
dense bureaucratic forests of QOTW, and have only just now re-emerged to
the daylight of civilization...

to drinking condensation off your own butt." -Becca Thal
