This is not funny. This... this is a morality tale about the evils of sake.

Spike's Bitches 23: We've mastered the power of positive giving up.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Was so!

Ok, not really. It was Trudy.

Ass = Me.

What is even happening?

Hee, I just went back and saw that. I was pretty sure I hadn't posted, at least not from this morning. But my head is foggy enough from allergies (or possibly Alzhoweveryouspelliters), I couldn't be sure.

I could never get past the realistic but senseless violence.

Huh. Maybe it's just me but, while I considered the violence in Reservoir Dogs to be brutal and graphic, I don't think any of it was either random or senseless.

I found it all to be deliberate, purposeful, and completely understandable, considering the characters and situations involved.

None of which says random or senseless to me.

Yeah, Em was in our bed most of the night (AGAIN) so between making sure noone smished her and making sure she wasn't buried under the pillow and making sure the dog wasn't on her and nursing her, I am exhausted and can't remember who was calling me names.

It was that Bitch, Trudy.

This time.

Trust my rage

I've only seen the movie once, and it was about 7 years ago, so I wouldn't doubt you are correct. What I mostly remember is the ear cutting scene - thinking that while it might have been in character, it was unnecessary. I don't remember the plot that much, but the ear cutting really bothered me.

Oh sure. The violence was quite disturbing. It even made me squirm. So I can't fault anyone for being bothered by it.

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

Kee-rist. Assemble your own box of chocolates.

Would this mean life is no longer like one?

Only for the mortals, ita. You needn't worry.
