I don't think any of them know about the site. It never came up. I'm pretty sure it started with talking about the Expo and I asked G (someone I knew from before the class) if she was going to Tim's thing on Friday. And then someone else said, "Tim? Tim Minear?" And we were off and running with the Tim love.
I'm so sorry, but if it makes you feel any better, my fun-time-Buffy party night involved watching a robot throw Spike through a window, so if you want to trade... no wait, I wouldn't give up that memory for anything.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

Oh, I love the randomness of the world and the "you can't know whom you're going to meet where".
If it's OK to ask, what is that "Tim's thing on Friday"? Sorry if it's been mentioned before - I'm large with the skipping-and-skimming.

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

Ooh! I get such frisson of delight when Nilly gets all idiomatic.

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

Yay! I'm just pleased when I manage to use them properly, and delighted when they seem to not sound like a fake accent.

Thanks. And, oh, that sounds like something I would love to attend (had it not been for that ocean and the probably during-shabbat and, well, the complete impossibility), and I don't even know anything about screenwriting. I'm glad you ladies are going to attend, though.

The way you type your Rs is a dead giveaway, but the accent adds to your appeal. (And I was only being a smartass up to the comma.)

Thanks, joe. Um, I think.

Also, you can ask the Buffistas I was lucky enough to meet last year regarding how I type my Rs.

Interesting things you hear around the internet...
Adam Baldwin is filming a pilot for a new TNT show about hostage negotiators. From what I can tell, I think he might just be a guest star in the pilot. He seems to be playing the bad guy.

stee recapped the first episode of Profit. Yay!
Elevator. Dad says, "Hey. Don't I know you?" Profit turns around. Casually: "Hi, Dad." Man, this has more twists and cliffhangers than Trapped In A Closet!

Suh-weet! I feel weird getting all fangirly after just two episodes (I think B&N delivers the set today), but I have large love so far.
