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

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I have beer in the house, but not because I drink it. Some of my friends decided to buy me several different kinds of beer for my birthday. Unfortunately, I don't seem to like beer at all, though I tried each and every one of them. Even though everyone else who tried them said they had vastly different tastes, they each to me had that essential "beeriness" that drowned out any other flavors for me.
As for the stuff I do drink, I have whiskey, vodka, amaretto, Bailey's, Kahluah (For mixing, mostly. I'll take straight shots of vodka occaisionally. Good vodka goes down like water for me. Cheap vodka makes me nauseated. I've also had Bailey's on the rocks from time to time.) and assorted Mike's Hard flavors left over from the party as well.

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

With boys to spare. And a chapter all your own. Which is the best I can do, it's hard to top a moon.

What is WRONG with you people and your not drinking beer?
Well, I find that drinking beer gets in the way of my consuming massive amounts of Quaaludes and Ding-Dongs.
Also, beer makes you pee a lot.

Life is eternal, Love is immortal, and death is only an illusion.
Dang. Call in sick for one day,and miss all the fun.
So there is a party, with boys( no men?), beer, rum and vodka.
No free food, and work is required....
Hmmmm sounds like a normal weekend at my house.
Is there a cover charge or any entertainment? Like jello mud wrestling? Or Jenga?

I have lots of vodka. All different kinds. I think it's multiplying or something.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
I caught this on Whedonesque, some "Support Spike" fan spoke to James Marsters at a convention;
"I also talked to him about a Spike Movie. I reiterated to him that Joss Whedon had approached Tim Minear to write and direct. [Note: James learned about Tim Minear earlier that day during the Q&A]. James said he thought Tim would do a good job and mentioned Tim being ruthless in his writing, which James liked. I mentioned reading that Joss was putting together a writing team and that I thought Jane Espenson would be a good compliment to Tim - she would be the light to his dark. James agreed and added that "Doug Petrie" and "Steven DeKnight" would also be good for the job."

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
So he wants every ME writer ever to write one scene of the movie. Okay then.

I may have to seize the cat.
I always thought a good drinking game would be to take a drink every time Buffy tells Spike that he disgusts her or is disgusting etc.
I would love to see anything that was a Tim-and-Doug show. They are two of my favorites. (Of course, when I start to list favorites, you end up with a long list.)
