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."

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Is Moby Dick a beluga?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
No wonder that book is such a hard read.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Are you offering to take it all in hand, beth?
(I do trust that Moby Dick fandom doesn't involve a lot of fanwanking?)
...oh, sweet Jesus. It has just occured to me that Moby Dick/Free Willy crossover fanfic might be out there somewhere.
Also? What IS with naming fictional whales after the penis? Really? Hello, subtlety?
I mean, honestly, Shamu and all these names at Sea World - are these just stage names? Are they really called things like John Thomas, Woody, Ivor Biggun, Trouser Snake, Pork Sausage, Truncheon Of Love and Really Enormous Penis?
...and suddenly I'm imagining the voiceover person warning the front 15 rows that they might want to move, because Really Enormous Penis is going to soak them all.
Aaaand I'm done. Okay. Leaving the conversation now.
edited for more gratuitous penis talk.
