Weirdly, I do remember finding Timex Guy hot. He must have grossed up as he aged, clearly. No other explanation.
And what's the fun in becoming an immortal demon if you're not regular, am I right?
The Mayor ,'End of Days'
Buffy and Angel 1: BUFFYNANGLE4EVA!!!!!1!
Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.

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

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Are you saying Files and Records is Flo?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Is everyone here very stoned?

Well since Mark just watched Wrecked we have been through an "actual car crash!".

I do recall thinking that the "friend" that JDM's character was talking about searching for was probably his friend in the same sense that Randolph Scott was Cary Grant's.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

The comment section for "Smashed" is some of the ugliest shit I've seen in a long time. I would have expected it for "Seeing Red," but no -- shit got mightily ugly in the "Smashed" comments.
If Mark is smart, he won't enable commenting for "Seeing Red."

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Several people have suggested that. I was dreading that post myself, but I didn't expect the shitstorm in "Smashed."
Also, some asshole took it upon himself to spoil Mark about the attempted rape because he'd mentioned it in a Twilight post three years ago and was clearly pretending not to know (in truth, his friend pointed it out as relevant, so he added it, but he had no real idea what it was and had long forgotten it), and that's why he wasn't being fair to Spike (despite the fact that he has said multiple times that he actually likes Spike).
Also, Tumblr is full of rape threats in, I think, both directions? I don't even know, it's fucking insane.
Spuffy fans, man.

They're not wrong.
I was dreading that post myself, but I didn't expect the shitstorm in "Smashed."
I don't read the comments on all of Mark's reviews, but I've read a large handful (at least the first page's worth of comments on several reviews), and I wouldn't have expected "Smashed" to get this ugly. I expected disagreements and heated commentary, but it got downright vile in places.
And I don't envy you or the other moderators, or Mark, because I know you guys see ALL of the whack-ass shit that never gets approved, on top of the shitstorm that "Smashed" unleashed.
and that's why he wasn't being fair to Spike
Interesting. I noticed a comment directed to Mark that alluded to him knowing "future events," and Mark was all "I have no idea what you're talking about, I am unspoiled."
I thought it was weird that someone would even bring something like that up, but now it makes sense.
"Smashed" is fucked up, and I think that's pretty much the damn point of the episode. Bad choices all around in that one. (And yet? Jesus god, the sex is HOT. And I'm okay saying that, because fiction is complicated and fucked up. As are the people who consume said fiction. I can dig it while recognizing that it's hugely fucked up.)
Although I could live without Spike's goddamn pimp chain. *That's* just wrong.
