I don't want to jinx anything!
Eek. Of course. I will go with the "I imagined it" scenario for now.
I know of this jinxing. Happens every time I mention the phrase "potential girlfriend" to my mother.
Illyria: We cling to what is gone. Is there anything in this life but grief? Wesley: There's love. There's hope...for some. There's hope that you'll find something worthy...that your life will lead you to some joy...that after everything...you can still be surprised. Illyria: Is that enough? Is that enough to live on?

[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.

Hey. New board.

Why oh why would you ever say this to her? My mom doesn't hear about girls until we've been an item for at least a month. It keeps the jinxing to a minimum.

The status is NOT quo.
The corpse of Buffy?
Somehow even better.

Hey, Tim and Willow have something in common!

If I only had a brain...
And Tim is arguably raising the dead with the current show.

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
Tim wouldn't hurt Bambi!

Pfft. He'd turn Bambi into beagle kibble before the teaser was over.
