So there is something I can do, besides scream like a woman?

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.

This one had me in hysterics.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

attributing a gnostic interpretation to Melville, with the whale as the demiurge.

Proving only that Moby Dick can be all things to all people.

Not appropos, but Patrick Neilsen Hayden over at making light was given an excuse to make one of the all time great geek puns.

Actually that suggests an input for this game: [link]

Not anything special. The making light pun is much funnier. [link]

oops I have been in the wrong thread. I stand by my evil lamb, though.

Same wrong thread as Laga - but you know fits here a little because - editor humor.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I'm currently reading the first Dexter book. I haven't seen the TV series yet, but I'm loving the book.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Although I think I've just figured out the Big Twist and am mildly curious to see how it plays out and whether it really matters. I'm reading quickly now since I just want to know if anything cool awaits me at the end;

Polter-Cow, not much cool happens at the end. It's entertaining enough and the biggest twist to me is the relationship with the doctor at the end as that was the least predictable.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I'm currently reading the first Dexter book. I haven't seen the TV series yet, but I'm loving the book.

The first season follows the first book pretty faithfully, up to a point. After that, the books and the show diverge wildly. I still haven't read the third one as I've heard that it's nowhere near as good as the first two.
