OZ: We should figure out what kinda deal this is. I mean, is it a-a gathering, a shindig or a hootenanny?
CORDELIA: What’s the difference?
OZ: Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, Less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage; and hootenanny, well, it’s chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

WILLOW: How come you weren’t in class?
BUFFY: Vampire issues. Did Mr. Whitmore notice I was tardy?
XANDER: I think the word you’re searching for is ‘absent’.
WILLOW: Tardy people show.
BUFFY: Right.
WILLOW: And, yes, he did notice, so he wanted me to give you this.

WILLOW: No, it’s your baby!
BUFFY: Okay, I get it even less.
XANDER: Well, you know, it’s the whole ‘sex leads to responsibility’ thing, which I personally don’t get. You gotta take care of the egg. It’s a baby. You gotta keep it safe and teach it Christian values.
WILLOW: My egg is Jewish.
XANDER: Then teach it that Dreidel song.
