Buffistas

Dawn: Any luck? Willow: If you define luck as the absence of success--plenty.

'Touched'

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.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

though some of the proposed story ideas for seasons 2 and 3 I've heard mentioned here are worrisome.

Though I expressed reservations earlier about the Miracle Baby storyline, that pales before the amount of disbelief suspension required by Sharon giving up smoking before she realizes she's pregnant. (Fuller said that her early pregnancy weight gain would be mistakenly attributed to giving up cigarettes.) Give me something easier to believe guys—like reanimated corpses walking among us, or Buffy being able to afford her clothes on a fast food worker's salary .

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

Sunnydale has the best consignment shops what with the weekly butcher's bill.

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

It's true. Most of the vamps' victims were Buffy's size.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

A friend of mine used to work in Blockbuster in the early 90's; he has all of TP (including the pilot) on VHS. Completely legit, although not available anymore.

I spent one memorable iced in weekend with all the tapes, a new bag of weed and an iced in car. Ah, back in the day...

I watched TP on TV all through my senior year of HS and my first year of college. The first time I ever did any kind of drug was watching TP's during viewing parties. Damn, that was my first show I was obsessed over. How sexy was Audrey Horne?

Guy #1: Man, there are so many hipsters around. I hate hipsters! Guy #2: You're at the wrong place. That's like going to Vegas only to say "I hate titties!" --The Warsaw, Williamsburg (OINY)

When I was in high school, I could do the dwarf backwards voice thing.

backing away from Plei slowly

Yeah, but could you actually say things backwards or did it just sound like "oohwwwee gnerr" (my attempt to phonetically represent his voice)? 'Cause that would be really cool.

Just got more details - Frank Silva was in the supermarket when spotted. Asked why HE didn't run screaming for the hills, the BF clarified that FS is tiny, like "Prince-sized". Hee.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

How sexy was Audrey Horne?

Pretty fucking sexy. Mmmm, saddleshoes.

And that perfect sultry/sweet face, yow.

Didn't they accidentally catch Frank Silva in a shot while shooting the pilot, and then Lynch decided it was too cool not to use?

Yeah. They'd already shot the bit with him crouching at the end of Laura's bed, and then later that day did the scene where Mrs. Palmer wakes up from her dream/vision -- afterwards someone said, "Sorry, but you can see Frank in a mirror in the background, we need to reshoot." And Lynch was all, "No, that's PERFECT."

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

And that perfect sultry/sweet face, yow.

And the ability to tie cherry stems in knots with her tongue. Guh.

I thought she tried a little too hard to be really appealing, though props for making the theoretical sexpot a brunette with some meat on her bones.
