The Minearverse 3: The Network Is a Harsh Mistress  

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

Art Crawl!!!

If they would substitute Strange World or Lois and Clark (if that counts as genre, and why shouldn't it?) for Buffy . . . they'd look so much more together.

What is even happening?

Tim is like the anti-Marcie of the Buffyverse. He wasn't there, but everyone sees him anyway.

It's all the death and pain.

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

I've never seen Amelie. Is it good for renting, or will it make my eyes bleed?

That's hilarious, Rick.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Amelie is very cute. Any cuter, and I've have gone into shock and killed someone. Perhaps in the reverse order.

If I only had a brain...

Totally deep is M. Hulot's Holiday. Boy, without that movie, I wouldn't know what angst meant.

Wait -- are you saying that Tim killed Jenny Calendar?

Tim killed Marcel Marceau.

Tim killed Marcel Marceau.

No, he just cut out his tongue.

Tim killed Marcel Marceau.

No, just his voice double.

All is well that ends in pizza.

If you want to be technical, you could say that Tim's work appeared on Buffy...in Fool For Love.
