I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

I need a new tagline.. submissions are accepted.

I watched Hero for the first time a few a few days ago. I was 'ok' with the ending of the final when I first saw it but now after Hero its perfect. While I want more stories I can't think of a better ending.

I do feel a little blessed that I have quite a few episodes I have yet to see (I am a late Angel convert). I at least have new episodes (well new for me) to help with my pain.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Ooh, envy. What great, classic episodes do you get to see for the first time?

Would you belive most? I watched the first few episodes season 1 and missed a few and when I watched it again I was so confused (during that time Doyle had died, I liked Doyle where was he) so I just stopped watching. I started watching again last year. So we have most of season 1, all of season 2 and 3 and a few others.

So in one way I have a lot to look forward to but in another way I am sorry for the time I lost.

Wow, Christ. I recently went through the first three seasons on DVD, and since I hadn't seen them since they aired, it was almost like seeing them for the first time, except I still knew all the major plot developments.

Keep posting your thoughts here (and by here, I suppose I mean Previously). I can't wait to hear your reactions, and what you think's going to happen, and all that.

Aw, don't parse the shout-out.

I swear, I'd never seen the "lurkers support me" bit anywhere else. With Angel being so lurky it seemed like a good fit. I thought I was so clever and apparently it was lame, but that's the way of things. Matt, I got the impression that Allyson preferred her own name to Merciless, and the goal was to give y'all a nod, not establish street cred, y'know?

I don't mean to cause a thing, since I'm very aware that opinions about me here are... well, mixed. I just wanted to tip my hat because y'all impressed me. Hell, I've been insulted here in ways I thought were hilarious. It was a shout-out to all of you, and of course Allyson in particular, and I've enjoyed reading your posts over the years. And that's it.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

Aw, don't parse the shout-out.

Love this. Taggably so.

Nice to see you here.

Yay! Strega!

Well, we got you to register. Now we have your sooouuuuul.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Hell, I've been insulted here in ways I thought were hilarious.

True story. I was once insulted after a ScoopMe column for being so class free as to give Tim a carton of smokes for xmas, and we should have given him a fine bottle of scotch, instead. The dude was brutal about my lack of respect and good taste.

Because giving a guy in AA a bottle of scotch is a truly classy move, yo.

Fandom. It devours you starting with your bottom.

So, what's doing now, Strega? Great American Novel?

Whoa, whoa. With your inside knowledge of fandom, and Strega's seething hatred of fandom, you could team up to write the Ultimate Fandom Book Thing.
