That's one spunky little girl you've raised. I'm gonna eat her.

Spike's Bitches 33: Weeping, crawling, blaming everybody else  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I am, surely, overly emotional. My apologies. I took David's post the wrong way and am sorry. It felt callous and too soon when I snapped and responded but he was just answering a question. I am sorry. I just am shocked and saddened to find out we lost Gus.

No apologies necessary. It's shocking and a loss. Trust me, I feel it. I don't intend any disrespect.

Compassionately intolerant

Oh my. Godspeed Gus. I can just imagine him winging off to where ever we go with a sly smile and a whole lot to say about it.

We had a couple of offline interactions and I gotta say...one of the sweetest, funniest fellows. And such a devout fan!

God bless him and all he loved.

kimi, I said it elsewhere, but should it be heard by those who need to hear it, I'm raising a single malt in memorium. My blessings to you and all.

Bar posts, that's what I recall fondly.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

No apologies necessary.
Except the part where, yeah, I need to. And I do apologize.
It's shocking and a loss. Trust me, I feel it. I don't intend any disrespect.
It ... it is.

And I really don't have words for loss right now. I have used all of mine up and I just feel empty right now when people and things I want to take for granted are gone.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

Damn.

My world just got a bit dimmer.

Thank you for letting us know, kimi. And please don't hesitate to speak up if there is anything we can do for you.

I'll raise a glass to his memory tonight.

My world just got a bit dimmer.

Thank you for letting us know, kimi. And please don't hesitate to speak up if there is anything we can do for you.

Yes to both of these comments. Oh Gus. I'm so sorry we didn't get a chance to say goodbye, but I'm grateful for your years of wit and wisdom. You will be missed.

And kimi, please do know that we are here if you ever need or want a place to talk or to be distracted. They're both kind of Buffista specialties.

Thank you for coming here and letting us know, kimi. I'm so sorry for your loss.

I will miss you, Gus. Peace to your loved ones.

If I only had a brain...

Thank you, Kimi. I'm very grateful you told us. He was so smart, and so funny, and so brilliant. I am grateful to have known him.

Oh, you people. You loved him, didn't you, in an internet sort of way?

I am a great big sniffling mess after reading your responses.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
