[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.

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

Oh. Oh. Just nabbed this off Whedoneque.

Bravo's Ultimate Superheroes and Super Vixens.

If you are male, like, oh, say, Conan, you are a hero. If you are female, like oh say, Buffy or Ripley, you are a vixen.

See, now my rage has gone from FauxTim to Bravo.

Sexist pieces of shit need my vixen foot up their arseholes.

"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

Sitting here at the end of my glamorous day of designing letterheads for my company's associates and trying to convince them that, yes, I actually do need those ballpark quantity numbers from them before I can magically produce printer's estimates, I'm thinking most anything sounds exciting. Going out to buy toilet tissue and lightbulbs has so far been the highlight of my day.

If you are female, like oh say, Buffy or Ripley, you are a vixen. (emphasis mine)

WhatwhatWHAT?!? Okay, putting aside the extremity of sexism in their overall statement, they picked Ellen Ripley as one of their prime examples of a vixen? Ellen "dressed in loose gray work clothes, shaved her head to get rid of lice, drove a loader, GETAWAYFROMHERYOUBITCH!" Ripley?

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

Are vixens the good guys or the bad?

I suspect they're just going for alliteration, and who cares, chicks don't read comics anyway.

If I only had a brain...

Wouldn't it be nice if somebody introduced those people to the bity end of a real-life vixen?

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

James Bond as a superhero, ultimate or otherwise.

I reject this notion.

If so, his mutant ability is avoiding VD.

And avoiding detection, given his level of announcing himself clearly by name all the time.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

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

Well, he is a lesbian.

Where do the Fab Five fit into this scheme?
