When you see this on your flist, quote Firefly. Unless you don't want to.
[I can see myself growing weary of these memes pretty fast, but - Firefly! Serenity! Midnight screening in less than twelve hours! OMG!]
Mal: Now think real hard. You been bird-dogging this township a while now. They wouldn't mind a corpse of you. Now you can luxuriate in a nice jail cell, but if your hand touches metal, I swear by my pretty flowered bonnet, I will end you.

(I mean, there were a million choices, and I thought long and hard over the "Well, look at this! Looks like we got here just in time. What does that make us?" / "Big damn heroes, sir." exchange, but I figure that's probably turning up all over the place. And I really love that line above, because it encapsulates the speech patterns and absurdity of the show so well.)

rj_anderson asked, and several ideas converged at once: a House/Cameron ficlet. No, really.
'Til It's Gone
by Lizbee
Summary: Everybody sing the chorus of "Big Yellow Taxi"!
Fandom: House
Pairing: House/Cameron
Rated: G
On an otherwise unremarkable day in June, Allison Cameron died in a freak anvil-related accident.
House found himself curiously saddened by this, and long after everyone else had started to move on, would sometimes find himself missing Cameron. He didn't stop to think about it too much; he just popped another Vicodin and got on with the job.
The end.
Headache still present, not yet at blinding intensity. Fortunately, I was going to the doctor's today anyway. Also heading into the city to pick up A Slight Trick of the Mind (which, incidentally, the nice boys at Pulp Fiction hadn't even heard of, so if you're sitting around wondering why x book hasn't appeared on their shelves, poke 'em about it -- the only authors they routinely order in hardback are Lois McMaster Bujold, Connie Willis, J. K. Rowling [who?] and maybe a couple of crime authors, depending on pre-orders). Other plans include cleaning, reading, editing and turning in early for a pre-midnight screening nap.
