Bastages.
I was going to go with "motherfuckers."
Giles: I'm sure we're all perfectly safe. Dawn: We're safe. Right. And Spike built a robot Buffy to play checkers with. Tara: It sounded convincing when I thought it.

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

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Corksacking bastages.

I can't even.
Corksacking icehole mathyforkers.
Geez, I hope we're riffing Johnny Dangerously or I'm totally lost.

Oh! The internet tree! I forgot about the internet tree!
Seriously, our boy wrote the internet tree?
He did. Also, iirc he tried to tell us it was better than TOGOM.
Somewhere roundabout here, I think: Tim Minear "The Minearverse 2: Getting his words out." Apr 20, 2004 6:14:06 pm PDT
I remember it because it felt at the time like the bizzarest thing ever to be arguing the toss with the guy that wrote it. Then I remembered who killed Dolye and felt better.

While I wouldn't hold the internet tree itself up as a paragon of villain design, I would agree with Tim that "Couplet" worked better than "That Old Gang of Mine" overall.

What is even happening?
Which one is couplet? Is it the ballet one, or the pancake kisses one, or a completely other one?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Couplet is the internet tree one. Ballet was "Waiting In The Wings" and I think the pancake kisses were "Double Or Nothing."
