I don't get the 25 letters and a redneck reference.
Spike: We got a history, him and me. Fred: What? Spike: It was a long time ago. He was a young Watcher, fresh out of the academy when we crossed paths. It was a, what-you-call battle of wills and blood was spilled. Vendettas were sworn. It was a whole-- Fred: My God you're so full of crap. Spike: Yeah. Okay.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Nutty was 'throwing down' with the British, and presumably Australians, over their pronunciation of 'Z'. Trudy was cheering her on from the sidelines.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Yeah, but it'll still be cool for Natter 27.
You do have a point. Especially since 27 has, like, no cool numerical relations. 'cept for being three cubed.
I think the most apt alphabet reference has been "From Absurd to Zeitgeist." Cause damn, dude. Natter in a nutshell.

Zed is a redneck? Isn't it a British thing?
(I feel so ignant.)

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Punning the thread number is so over.

Zed's dead, baby. Zed's dead.

Zed, as I understand it, is a common name in redneck territory. It is not a common name in Britain (or Australia), where it is used to refer to a letter.

See, to me Zed is a Baptist Southern Mountain Man name, but not really a redneck name. Rednecks are named, like, Leroy or Earl or Bud.
I'm not crazy about thread titles that need to be explained, but that's me.

Hmmm. I come from a long line of rednecks, and I've never heard of it as a redneck name. Or a name at all, really, Pulp Fiction notwithstanding. (I figured it was just a weird Movie Thing, like naming someone Uncle Void. And I have a friend with an Uncle Void, so that wasn't a non sequitur.)

I knew that; I guess I didn't clarify that in my last post. I didn't think it was a name at all, whereas I've heard the word used in England (though to designate the letter Z).
