Or, with the way things have gone, it might well be "John Smith and Jane Jones-Smith" with their adorable toddler, "Joshua Jones-Smith".
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

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."

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
So Amazon had a Kindle deal for the Parasol Protectorate, and I got the first three books for $10. Finished Soulless last night.
Hey, that's still going! This would be my first Kindle purchase.

and the second reference is Mr. Smith and Mrs. Smith, unless Jane Smith requests to be Ms. Smith.
Seriously? That's just seems wrong.

The Times may have moved as far as Ms. Smith unless she requests to be Mrs.

So Orson Scott Card rewrote Hamlet so that Hamlet's father was a gay pedophile and abused Hamlet, Laertes, Horatio, Rosencrantz, and Guildenstern, and that's why everyone is fucked up.
And then Scott Lynch (author of The Gentlemen Bastards) mocked him by similarly rewriting Henry V. Sort of: [link]

When I was a teen, I would have included Heathcliff/Catherine but now I think that's fucked up.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I posit that Heathcliff and Catherine deserved each other. That way the fucked-upped-ness is self-contained and doesn't have to spill out onto other unfortunate people.
