Patrick: What does that button do?
Stacey: That’s the button that makes it look like it’s actually on the page.
Michael: No, it’s the button that I don’t know what it does, but it makes me feel better when I press it.

Astronauts
Quote
(Looking at different fonts for the cover)
Alan: What are you looking for?
Patrick: We’re looking for whatever Stacey says we’re looking for.
Stacey: We’re looking for something that looks less like they’re recruiting astronauts.
Fun
Quote
(People are gathered around the photo computer picking a photo for the Pillbox cover)
Greg: Is it super fun font time?
Stacey: It’s super fun manboobs time.
Tweet
Quote
Celia: Nick was here?
Alan: Yeah, he showed up this morning.
Celia: I didn’t know that. It wasn’t part of Michael’s tweeting.
Alan: Michael was live tweeting production?
Jonathan: Lie tweeting?
Old
Quote
Allison: Old is a state of mind. You can’t put an age boundary on it.
Madelyn: We can, because we’re young.
Bias
Quote
(Figuring out what article should go first on A1)
Madelyn: Port authority. But I’m biased, because I wrote it.
Emily: I’m biased too, because it was a good article.
Patrick: Emily doesn’t know what ‘biased’ means.
Dickbag
Quote
(Talking about how old comics had offensive things.)
Nicole: But it’s not okay to say ‘dickbag’?
Jonathan: What if it involved penis satchels?
Patrick: If ‘dickbag’ was representative of the time, it would be okay.
Nicole: Ye olde penis satchel?
Patrick: Yeah, ‘Ye olde penis satchel’ would be okay.
Past
Quote
Stacey: We were going to look through past Thistles for photos of Jeff Lazlow.
Jonathan: From when he was not dead.
Taste
Quote
(Emily disapproves of the art for an article on taste.)
Emily: I don’t get it. It doesn’t make sense. Taste buds don’t wear hats. Especially backward hats.
Jonathan
Quote
Allison: Does anyone know when Jonathan’s getting in?
Daniel: Probably when he’s done saving lives?
Allison: Good point. I can’t be mad at him. He’s saving lives, looks good. He’s questionably in the navy, might be 45…
