Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!

if this was a true zombie journal then you would be talking about zombies plus how to get along with strangers in that situation

Who needs to worry about getting along with strangers in a zombie situation? If you're not getting along with them, "Oops! I was sure he was coming to eat my brain" is a perfectly good excuse.

I particularly liked the icon: "Hating me won't make you pretty." Just says it all, doesn't it?

On don't-feed-the-trolls front, I will resist the temptation to reply there; besides, the inhabitants seem to have done a fine job. However:

If you all were in a real zombie situation you would argue until you were all dead

And you would survive because your brain is so unspicy as to be inedible. Isn't that a comfort to you?

WOOHOO!

The other day, I found AtS: No Limits [link] How is it?

I've seen it recced on BetterBuffyFic, but I haven't read any of it. I find virtual seasons odd.

Perkins, the writers involved are all good, and the first "episode" or two rocked. Then I stopped reading it, because of the whole pregnancy thing (and the finding virtual seasons weird, too thing), so I can't tell you anything more about it.

I agree on the weird thing, but it did seem like good writers. Mebbe I will read one or two, just to see.

For what it's worth, I've read most of them and wasn't impressed despite good writers being involved. Spoilery:

It takes elements I'd complained about in later seasons (everyone the protagonists meet being a demon or knowledgable about same, Spike & Angel's infantile "am not!"/"are too!" arguments) and magnifies them into about 75% of the total content. Oh, and there are the stories where Gwen Raiden races in to the rescue as a deus ex machina, and subsequently takes Illyria for a Girl's Night Out to teach it how a modern woman should be empowered by her sex appeal.
