Buffistas

I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

If we're looking for driving-related songs, my favorite is "Thunder Road", by Springstein. Might be a bit too upbeat, though.

As opposed to:

"You can't take the sky from me" Or "Goldfish nibbling at my toes. Fun, fun, fun in the sun, sun, sun". [Just to make it clear - yeah I know, not a Minear series. But with a fair amount of bite. ]

Where is "Goldfish nibbling at my toes" from, Typo Boy?

Punishingly Intricate

Since I read the call for driving-related songs I've had the Clash's version of "Brand New Cadillac" stuck in my head. But I'm thinking the network might not care for the "Balls to you" parts.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Not Gar, but it's from the "Red Dwarf" theme song. (And now I am earwormed.)

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

I've managed to earworm myself with "I've got a brand new pair of rollerskates" when what I was really heading for was "Mercedes Benz" by Janis Joplin. At least it has actual carage.

Ah, thanks. That's one that's on my list of shows to check out some day.

Gahhh! An entire song sung in the same tone of voice that Brittany Murphy used for her "I'll never te-ell" line in Don't Say a Word.

But at least it's porn, right?

Is it? Wait, written in the seventies by one of the folk artists from Woodstock—nevermind.
