Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

On the CBC they said he received the anointing of the sick, not last rites. They are different, right? I haven't forgotten everything?

Way to make a bunch of kids go "WOOOOT" at your death.

At least you get a few fond thoughts as you go.

Exactly! I want to see if I can arrange something like that at my passing. Like endow a day off at my old high school.

That would be ... well, nifty.

Huh. I have realized just now that tomorrow is April Fool's Day, and once again I have forgotten to plan an elaborate fannish prank to properly celebrate the day.

... or did I?

My coworkers are fairly prank-happy people. I'll kill them if they try anything.

No, no -- instead I think that when my spidey sense tells me that I'm about to be pranked, I'll just say, in that casually bored tone of a friendly neighborhood sociopath, "I can crash the servers, you know."

I think last rites falls under annointing of the sick.

I think there is only one of my co-workers that would be prone to attempting pranks. If he tries anything, I will hiss at him and wave a 9" hatpin in his face.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I think I'll tell my boss I'm pregnant again.

snerk Lately, my kids are always asking, "Or did I?" in a nefarious voice, after just about everything they say. I see you've gotten to them.

I hate practical jokes. I think they're generally a way to cause psychological harm without societal repercussions, and the victim gets told, "Oh, you're just a poor sport." Someone once tried to enlist me in a scam to convince some poor nebbish that his car had been impounded and he had to go to the cops to get it, and I said, "Not only will I not cooperate, I'm about to go tell him what you're planning." I smiled genially and nodded when called a party-pooper.
