Favorite moments? Learning that Gunn sold his soul -- for a truck. OK, a rather special truck, but a truck.

Lindsey, with fake hand, looking at the guitar in his closet.

The first appearance of Wesley Wyndham-Price, Rogue Demon Hunter.

"Rm w/a Vu" -- The villain makes the mistake of calling Cordy a bitch.

Another favorite moment: Anya G.'s recap of Billy. Best. Recap. Ever.

Angel: "Billy"

This recap was brought to you by Gender Absolutists R Us and The Fight Club For Wommyn: Wanna Feel Our Rage? (TM)

Billy: I'm pretty evil, you know.
Lilah: He's pretty evil, you know.
Gavin Park: I'm not so shabby myself, you know.
Lilah: You can stop beating me now.
Gavin Park: I know.

Cordy: A woman just got hideously murdered.
Wesley: Well, well, well. Another night of American television.

Cordy: Hey, it's that evil guy we freed. Guiltfest?
Angel: Eh.
Cordy: Since when?

Angel: Billy is evil. You should ditch him.
Lilah: No. Too powerful. They even name chairs after him at Ikea.

Billy: Yeah. I'm a tad evil.
Policeman: You are a tad arrested.
Policewoman: Dude, the traffic.
Policeman: Women can't drive.
Policewoman: I have issues with the simplistic way in which you are gendering this discourse.
Policeman: You used "gender" as a verb. I have no choice but to kill you.

Cordy: What is Billy's problem?
Lilah: Primordial mysogyny.
Cordy: A primordial condition which can only exist in a social context? Bwahahaha! Oh, you are serious.
Lilah: Men are beasts, see?
Cordy: But Lilah, the effort to identify the enemy as singular in form is a reverse-discourse that uncritically mimics the strategy of the oppressor instead of offering a different set of terms.
Lilah: Men love death... Men especially love murder. In art they celebrate it, and in life they commit it.
Cordy: Xanax, Ms. Dworkin?

Wesley: Give me back my broken night. My mirrored room, my secret life.
Fred: Wuh?
Wesley: It's lonely here. There is no one left to torture.
Fred: Uhm...
Wesley: Give me back the Berlin wall. Give me Stalin and St. Paul. Then lie beside me, baby, and that's an order.
Fred: Lemme guess. You've seen the future and it's murder?
Wesley: Sometimes I remind myself of the entire Manson Family.
Fred: The mojo only works on manly people. Are you sure you're homicidal?
Wesley: Ask my hatchet.

Fred: I knew I should have taken that Wendo class.
Gunn: Gonna smack you up, bitch.
Fred: There will be no Dr. Dreing on these premises.
Gunn: Ow, my head.
Wesley: Heeeeere's Johnny!
Hole In The Floor: Sucker!

Billy: Dumb chicks.
Cordy: Dumb chicks with weapons.
Angel: So does it work on trannies?
Billy: This question is outside of the theoretical framework of this episode.
Angel: Let's fight like men always do.
Billy: Is your urge to kill rising?
Angel: Shit. No. Should I be having a gender identity crisis?
Lilah: I've thought out my thesis to its logical conclusion. Billy, you are so damn dead.
Cordy: Alright! Go, Ms. Solanas.

Fred: Are you over it?
Wesley: Fuck, no.
Fred: Would you like some ice cream and an issue of Cosmopolitan?

Next week on the WB: Angel has to decide whether the problematic of reproduction is central to the sexing of the vampiric body. Darla investigates the relationship between the signifier and the signified in the popular expression "barefoot and pregnant". Monique Wittig arm-wrestles with Ruth Shalit.

t edit quoted in its entirety because it was in an archived thread and hard to find.

Oh, you guys are almost making me teary.

Pretty much all my faves have been mentioned, but I'll add the windows blowing out of the Hyperion in "Untouched."

Oh, and is it just me, or did no one specifically mention Angel kicking Russell out the window in "City of..."? Cause I think that's where the show had me.

"Can you fly?"

Angel: So does it work on trannies?

BWHAHAHAHAHAHA

Loved the Shempire in "The Trial":

Darla: "Weird? It's mythic!"
Shempire: "You been readin' too much Anne Rice, lady."

Fred: The mojo only works on manly people. Are you sure you're homicidal?

Wesley: Ask my hatchet.

So. Best.

Oh, yes "Can you fly?" When I realized that we weren't working with the same "I'm good so I can't do what I want to you" tropes. Still, Russell was a vampire. Lindsay never went through any windows. Angel thought up new stuff for him.

Angel thought up new stuff for him.

And now, my mind has gone to the porny corner. Thank you. Thank you very much.

Beyond the capacity for rational thought. Just sitting in the corner nodding as the memories scroll by. Trying not to cry. Waving hello to the de-lurkers, loving the ones of you I've taken this ME journey with, for years, for board after board, for months, for weeks.

Not enough time.

Wes telling Angel to "hop on board" his bike and giving him the pink helmet to wear. So one better than I will have the real quote, I suspect.

"Don't be a PAINBOW" THWACK "When you can be a rainbow" BAM

Annnnnnd, I'm sure I got that one wrong too.
