sometimes we are nasty and mean, but maybe we should hide that a bit.
Am I supposed to be changing my clothes a lot? Is that the helpful thing to do?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I see bon bon's objection to our claims to intelligence and humor. Those may be valued particularly, but they should be self-evident. (I think that's her objection. It's cheesy to introduce yourself by saying, "Halloo! I'm so smart and funny! Dig my utterly brill witticisms!")
On the other hand, I'm with Liese in that I dislike change. I prefer the archeological model. It's not like you run around Harvard changing all the stone-carved "V" letters into their rounder "U" selves. It's an historical marker of...the way we were. Also, I kind of like bugging msbelle. She's often at her best when she's agitated or annoyed.

I can't even.
I like it the way it is, honestly. Maybe it's not exactly who we are now, but I feel like the Jossverse is still a strong enough element to be worth putting on the front page.
I like this one.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Fuck. Is that where I've been going wrong??

Mr. I don't like change,
I do believe you were on the Pro side for adding more than one thread.
Maybe you don't like this change.

My deal has been stated. I don't identify with this place being about tv shows that are off the air or in syndication. but, more than that I just think it is a wrong description.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Is that where I've been going wrong??
Yes. Don't use brill. It's affected.

Even when I'm using my English accent?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
It would be nice if our description described us. But I don't think about it very often.

I think our description should be a map of the universe, and right at the center of the map there's a little arrow that says, "You are here."
