Honestly?
Only if it's yes.
Oh fine: honestly.
Mal: Then I call it a win. What's the problem? Inara: Should I start with the part where you're stranded in the middle of nowhere, or the part where you have no clothes?

"Don' be e-scared"
The truth is, gosh, I wish I wasn't just a terrible procrastinating hack who closes in on deadlines in 12 hour stretches and just grasps in desperation to make something track and fill the required page count and really had the focus to carefully plan out resonating narrative echoes. But, um, not so much.
I remember the Sunday I wrote 3/4ths of "Out Of Gas." I really am pathetic.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Was that supposed to echo the "people suck" montage in "Reprise", that had a similar effect on Angel?
I thought "people suck" was a recurring motif on the show. Vampires also suck, both literally and in the broader sense.

Poop. It was such a good idea.

Man, I gotta learn to be that lame.

You could say you were subconsciously smart (I never know how to spell "subconscious").
I remember the Sunday I wrote 3/4ths of "Out Of Gas." I really am pathetic.
Um, will it make it less pathetic, considering how well it worked?
Which 3/4? I mean, which 1/4 did you already have or had to complete later?

"Don' be e-scared"
Music is good! I like it. I'm right now listening to Sly and the Family Stone. How amazingly not thirty years old is their sound?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I really am pathetic.
If my eyes roll out of my head, will you buy me a seeing eye dog?

"Don' be e-scared"
I always write in order. I can't jump around like some. And with that one, I really had to go through it the way the audience would to make it track.

The correct answer is: Very!
