Spike: Lots of fuss over one girl. Other things to do around here--important things. Angel: You know that whoosh thing you do when you're suddenly not there anymore? I love that.

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."

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

That is just funny on so. many. levels.

Oh, it really really was.

I am gobsmacked by the notion of persons about whom RPF is written reading and writing feedback. Wow. The times they are a-changin' (or have a-changed).

(I know nothing of bandom, and am sorry I cannot appreciate the Planet of the Apes thing better. But I continue to boggle.)

Oh, I used to be slash-free. I don't even remember those days.

Ha! Yes, I remember the moment of conversion. ("Go on, Connie! And then Spike and Vamp!Giles have the hot sex!" "No! No, that would be icky!" "No, go on, it would be hot! Go on, try!" "No, it would be...it would...actually...er..." snapping sound "Yay! She wrote it! Write more!")

No fanatic like a convert.

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

I am gobsmacked by the notion of persons about whom RPF is written reading and writing feedback.

Quite frankly, that would be Number One Reason I'll Never Be In Bandom. Ever. EVER.

I like the music, though.

Jezebel's list of 75 books every woman should read - I've read less than half of them.

I know I've read 44 of those titles, and if I included "I'm pretty sure I read that" then I'd be closer to 61.

I've read 5 of them.

Wait - I think I have too (read 44) - that's more than half. (See, my arithmetic skills leave much to be desired.)

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I've read 5 of them.

I've read 11 of them and am reading a twelfth. I'm more than twice the woman you are!

(Maybe 12, going on 13. I can't remember whether I read The Diary of Anne Frank. I'm sure I must have.)

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I think I've read 15, maybe 20 if you include "started and subsequently abandoned." I'm terribly weak on 20th-century fiction, and worse on 21st.

If you have not read Fun Home, I highly recommend it, whatever your gender.
