Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

OMG, ABC News interviewed Joss about the new Buffy!!

Wow, the comments on that article are ignorant. Paraphrased: "Teh GAYZ r an ABOMINATION b4 Teh LORD!!! Burn this comic book!" "D00d, too bad dykes in real life are NOT as hot as Buffy!"

I didn't read the comments. I was thinking that the amount of publicity was insane. . .but maybe not.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Never, ever read comments. That's the rule I always forget I have.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Am I the only one who was not thrilled to see Drew Goddard tackling another Xander and Dracula story after his awful slapstick entry in Tales of the Vampires ?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I saw it coming but I still threw up in my mouth a little when he said master. But then I remembered Oh my eye, my burning beautiful eye and I was happy again.

Maybe he's just sad that he didn't get to write Buffy vs. Dracula and is compensating.
