Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
It's a shame, really, because of course it comes up all the time for us, and of course it's useful and a neat thing because it was our idea. And our work. (Okay, not mine personally, but us ours.) And its very continued existence relies on the continued work by someone who claimed not to have a continued existence. So it stays infuriating.

Because books.
I saw it linked by a librarian who runs a great blog (booksheleves of doom), and I cringed.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I'm pretty sure I first came here after that other site had already been created but it still gives me the motts when I see it mentioned.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I don't mind TV Tropes at all. TV Tropes and Gus's Gusness here are two separate things.

What Polter says. It hardly seems worth the grief and angst people are holding onto.

Except the grief and the angst represent real hurt feelings.

But being continually outraged doesn't seem to add value to life. Your value may vary, naturally.
