Elder ,'Power Play'
Discussion of the Mutant Enemy series, Firefly, the ensuing movie Serenity, and other projects in that universe. Like the other show threads, anything broadcast in the US is fine; spoilers are verboten and will be deleted if found.
I think bon is right about his confusion with the term "buffistas" though.Me, too. Actually, I've seen it used (occasionally) long before the Phoenix board existed, or before I was introduced to the community at WX, as a general Buffy-fan collective noun. Whether or not it was before J H-M used it at TT, I do not know.
Ok, ok, I'ma go do laundry but I ain't taking responsibility for the results.
I promise, if there needs be responsibility taken for clean knickers, I'm all over it, luv.
Whether or not it was before J H-M used it at TT, I do not know.
I hope not, because the phrase "Do not startle the buffistas" cracks me up so much I really want that to be the origin.
I was talking about the Buffistas at Whedonesque being lukewarm 'Browncoats'. Their one true love is Joss Whedon. Close second: Buffyverse. They watched Firefly out of loyalty to Joss, not because the show captivated them on its own merit.
What an arrogant prat. Perfect example of the sort of dweeb that gives fans a bad name (not that his alien punctuation adversary seems any better). I'd happily see Allyson tear chunks off him.
Aimee, if I mail you all the clean stuff, will you fold it?
Sure! I like folding.
They watched Firefly out of loyalty to Joss, not because the show captivated them on its own merit.
This sentence makes me wanna ask if REAL Firefly fans watched the show out of loyalty to the commercials and not because the show captivated them on its own merit. Cuz, seriously, how many people just stumbled into watching the show with nothing to introduce them to it? I'm sure a few people DID, by way of channel surfing or walking into a room where the tv was already on (and I wonder how many of THOSE who had the tv already on were buffistas?), but the percentage has to be relatively small.
I'd happily see Allyson tear chunks off him.
Meh. No point in leaving the bleachers.
gets out a big box and starts addressing it, then realizes that hauling the laundry all the way down to the post office might be more of a production than is really worth it.
Ah well, thanks anyway, Aimee.
ETA: close tag.
