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."

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Isn't that an X-men thing?

Definitely not limited to that, but I can see where that would be top notch fodder.

(Someone get SA here to give her defense of Popslash (boyband) RPS wingfic.)

the other character must show them they are beautiful via sexual intercourse (sometimes in midair).

And here I thought the wackiness was just confined to, hey, woke up with wings!

There is not enough WTF in the world.

Art Crawl!!!

You know what's great?

The concept of wingfic makes me laugh and laugh without even having to read any of it.

"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

That makes me think... if I were to wake up with functional birdlike wings some day, there would shortly be a whole lot of flaky evangelists and bible-thumping neocons running into some serious difficulties with their more zealous followers.

Now that's a story, Matt. Seriously.

move out and draw fire

Wow...my initial guess was West Wing fanfic. Couldn't have been farther off, huh?

And ITA with erika that Matt's idea is a story.

What is even happening?

Oh, I didn't mean fan fic. I thought it was a canonical X-Men character. Why I thought that, I don't know, because I haven't read X-Men or seen the films.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

It is. Warren Worthington III a.k.a. Angel. You might have seen him in the trailer for the new one. [link]

That's probably it, Jon. Thank you.
