HANNERS: "Don't complain, Faye! You volunteered to help out!"
FAYE: "Being a spooling peg wasn't what I had in mind!"
-
Hanners: My apartment, my thermostat.
Faye: I still say it's too cold in here.
-
Hannelore: I still say it's not long enough.
Faye: Fine, but are you trying to knit a scarf to fit around the Earth, or just Northampton?
(It's actually a gift for Station; the night side of Earth gets chilly.)
-
FAYE: "There must be thousands. Hundreds of thousands ... "
HANNERS: "One Million, Seven Hundred Seventy-One Thousand, Five Hundred Sixty One."
FAYE: "Based, I suppose, on the amount of grain and an assumption of when they got in?"
HANNERS: "Nope. I counted."
For Half Empty Coffee Cup: It's a space elevator cable.

This sounds suspiciously like a reference to "The Trouble With Tribbles", from the same person who posted a Spock Must Die! reference recently. DSL, are you a Trekker?
-
LLAP, y'all.
-
Oh, right, that's what triggered all the Spock references. I should have realized.
Goodbye, Leonard Nimoy. :-( So long, and thanks for all the logic.
-
Hannelore: "There, now you have a scarf just like Mr. Spock."
Faye: "Wrong TV show."
-
It wouldn't surprise me if Hanners wasn't up on Science Fiction, since she lived it every day when she was growing up.
-
Faye: Hannelore, this is overkill.
Hanners: Wrong, future climate change is going to make 2015 Boston look like a dusting of powdered sugar.
Faye: Why not make a sweater instead of turning me into a mummy?
Hanners: Because wool doesn't stretch that far, Miss Chesty A. Arthur.
-

NOPE. NOPE. NOPE. NOPE. NOPE. NOPE. NOPE. NOPE.
I might cry forever if that happens.

But why would she want to watch or read a genre she experienced daily? Wouldn't she be inured to its charms?

"I met him when he was a ginger. Very, very weird man but an impeccable taste with regard to a fez!"

Hey look a Raven:

Enjoy!
-
Marten: Oh, hi, I thought I saw you here, Raven.
Faye: Didn't you go back to grad school?
Raven: It turns out Hot Topic pays better.
-
Marten: Let my heart be still a moment...
Faye: There's no doubting; am I dreaming? Lord, it's our lady Raven, and her palace of a bust! You working the ghastly Hades of the night shift?
Raven: Nevermore.
Marten: Why do I feel like a depressed drunkard?
Faye: GET BACK HERE, YOU RARE AND RADIANT MAIDEN
-
Marten: Other friends have flown before. On the morrow she will leave me again, as my hopes have flown before.
Faye: She was at home listening to the Red House Painters, gazing moodily at her Morrissey poster and sighing. Pop Tart crumbs littering her sheets. Sad Pop Tart crumbs, crumbs of loneliness and dejection
Raven: Is this sarcasm? I’m far too ditzy to grasp the subtleties of mockery.
-
Marten: Oh, hi, I thought I saw you here, Raven.
Faye: Didn't you go back to grad school?
Raven: It turns out Hot Topic pays better.
Alt-Raven: "Nevermore."
Was actually thinking of doing this "edit" but couldn't think of how to do it without sounding like I was insinuating my punch line was better. And it was actually a funny punch line.
But I think you pulled it off with the implication of an alternate universe.
-
MARTEN: “Here’s an ebony bird beguiling my sad fancy into smiling,
By its grave and stern decorum in this Hot Topic store”
FAYE: “Though thy mein be sad and Gothy, thou, I say, thy brain be frothy,
Ghastly grim but ditzy Blodwyn wandering on the sales floor —
Tell me when you’ll seek employment in my boss’s coffee store!”
Quoth the RAVEN: “There’s the door.”
-
Marten: "Here we have a sighting of the rare Corvus albicollis, the white-necked Raven."
Faye: "Distinguishing features are its throaty voice, its dim-wittedness and its sexual promiscuity."
Raven: "I do not have a throaty voice!"

Sorry. I missed that you had already drawn the connection to Poe's poem. I was on an autopilot after reading Cesium's caption, and trying to riff on the theme of frustrations of Grad School (that, honestly, was the time of my life in many ways).
TL;DR; I was ninja'd so hard.

Yeah, I'm going to miss grad school when it finally ends (less than a month until my defense...), but I still like to joke about it sometimes.
