Oh, I know. I just figured a groan is the proper reward for a good pun.
Lorne: Snakes? Uh-huh. And they came out of your what? Okay. Okay, well, did they get up there themselves or is this part of a, you know, a thing? No, I'm not judging...Do we fight snakes? Angel: Only if they're giant. Or demons. Or giant demons. Are they giant demon snakes? Lorne: Well, unless this guy's 30 feet tall, I'm thinking they're of the garden variety.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
BWAH!
Aimee Makes BAD PUNS.

Always Anti-fascist!
I'm kidding...I'm the lightweight drinker ever. All I've got like Janis is the "kosmic blues".(Freaky...third time this month I said that)

For those who enjoyed "Reading the Slayer", Roz's newest book, From Alien to the Matrix: Reading Science Fiction Film is out in the UK in both prohibitively expensive hardback and more affordable softback. But the US edition comes out in May, via Palgrave (an imprint at St. Martin's).
Note the plug by a certain Mister Gaiman on the front cover...

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
DH has talked me down from the writer's block precipice. He happened to call right after I posted the above and made me describe the point where I've gotten stuck.
Me: I keep trying to describe what Anna is thinking and feeling, and it all sounds lame so I keep crossing it out!
DH: That's because you've created an unnatural pause. Get rid of that lull, and keep the action up--she doesn't have time to think or feel right now. She's just trying to survive.
Me: But that'll leave me with one action scene right after another, with no time for thinking and feeling until after the bit where they're going to kiss in the cave!
DH: So?
Me: But...I had plans.
DH: Are they working?
Me: Uh, no, not especially. Point taken.
