Oh, wait, I may be wrong. I think DX was at our table, and he said it. Unless I'm hallucinating...
Which, you know, possible.

I know DX said it. I think Jon said it. For some reason, I'm remembering you at a different table. Heh.

In ways both good and bad, that's what we *do*.Heh. First version was "Only you guys would parse the shout-out," but that seemed like it might sound bitchy when it was meant affectionately. Well, and it was less quippy.
So, what's doing now, Strega?Honestly? Wishing someone would give me a carton of cigs right now. I may have to put on shoes and get my own. Dammit. At TWoP, dunno yet. I have schemes, though. Fearsome ones. Totally.
With your inside knowledge of fandom, and Strega's seething hatred of fandomYou say that like these are different things. Okay, I'm not so much with the "inside." And maybe Allyson doesn't seethe. Unless she wants to.

And you think we don't know that? We are Buffistas, y'know.

I fear the guac.

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
The guac is green, so it can apparently be foiled with yellow. Fucking Green Lantern. His enemies piss in the snow while he's bound in Crime Scene Tape and the guy is toast. Why is this a superhero?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I hate the Green Lantern. Doesn't a small boy ride on his back for no apparent reason?
Aside from the fact that I have tears of laughter streaming down my face, I now have Green Lantern conflated with Master-Blaster. And Allyson with Mel Gibson. I won't give all the plot changes, but it's safe to say that Mad Max doesn't have to face the wheel.

The funniest part is that for pretty much the whole of Kyle's run as GL, that's what all the fanboys have been asking.
I recall reading an issue of Flash where Wally and Hal (Green Lantern before Kyle) are in Gorilla City and the 'rillas are fending them off with bananas.
It is quite possibly the stupidest weakness since the 1940s Wonder Woman men-tie-her-up vulnerability.
And maybe Allyson doesn't seethe. Unless she wants to.
Somedays, she's downright cordial 'bout things.

Allyson seethes, and is better at it than anyone I know. Welcome aboard, Strega!
(Though I had a sudden moment of feeling better about this fandom today when I accidentally wandered into a comics board. Even the worst of the K*tten stuff seems sane and tame compared to the Green Lantern Wars.)
Ah. You've just reminded me of a couple years I spent hearing near-constant rants about Kevin Dooley from my Green Lantern-obsessed former roomie. Pray for the man should we ever meet at a comic convention, because I OWE HIM PAIN!!!
