Discussion Threads

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 a fucking amazing catch!--Fiona Gallagher, Shameless(US)

She harps on that so much it seems kind of self-loathing to me and I'm just a Kinsey 1.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

and our friend the vampire was definatly sexier , but since group sex is all the rage and everyone must have sex and don't forget sex magic.. his appeal is gone.

For me, his appeal vanished about the fifteenth time he popped out of the shadows to reiterate to Anita that she was his Human Servant in the introductory novel. The term eventually grew as meaningless as endless repitition from the mouths of politicians made "stay the course."

Also, I wanna know what LKH's obsession with men in french braids is. I mean, I can go along with the men-with-long-hair thing, though it's not my thing. But...french braids?? I don't think I've ever seen a man with a french braid. I would quite possibly point and laugh. And she has guys wearing them ALL THE TIME.

(Edit: She's also always, when they're wearing the french braid, saying it makes them LOOK like they have short hair, which....no. I am currently wearing a french braid. I do not look like I have short hair, I just look like my long hair is pulled back. BZZT! Try again!)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I don't think I've ever seen a man with a french braid.

Sure you did. At the RenFaire. Remember the big hair braiding booth? Also I've seen a picture of ND with a french braid in his (then long) hair.

Though this is besides the point. And who am I to quibble about somebody else's hair obsession?

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

LKH's obsession with men in french braids

I've never read her stuff, but had considered reading some of the early stuff. Now? NSM.

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

I don't think I've ever seen a man with a french braid.

Maybe not a white guy, but I bet you've seen a picture of a rapper, say, with them.

Just to verify, we're all talking about this, right?

Because I have never seen a man with that kind of braid.

This kind?

Yes, I have seen on men. But not french braids.

I've seen the first one on black men, but it's been two, not one.

I guess when you're a rich, immortal creature of the night that can hypnotize people, you never have to worry about anyone pointing at your hairstyle and laughing
