Actually, it's good that we're discussing this, because the current thread title did not get a lot of input. I believe it was rolling over and nobody was around, John H pulled up the Anya quote and I suggested using the whole thing, and that was that.
Willow ,'Conversations with Dead People'
All Ogle, No Cash -- It's Not Just Annoying, It's Un-American
Discussion of episodes currently airing in Un-American locations (anything that's aired in Australia is fair game), as well as anything else the Un-Americans feel like talking about or we feel like asking them. Please use the show discussion threads for any current-season discussion.
Add yourself to the Buffista map while you're here by updating your profile.
And come to think of it, it's not titled like most of the other threads. It's not UnAmerican Buffistas: blah blah.

Man, am I just the most offensive woman on the face of the planet, or what? I should just have come over all Rio and done the ASS CAPS thing.

Because you didn't want to go in for all that testing?
crammed with popular culture references which are primarily US-based
Yes, based on a reworking of mythology which is 100% European. It would do no harm to acknowledge your sources. I'm not getting my "knickers in a twist" I commented is all. It is not the most active thread on the board which I find surprising because there are many unAmerican fans of the show. IJS.
No, damn it, I can't let this lie. I just totally don't agree with this interpretation of the thread title:
Might as well say: poor, perverted, annoying people you're not one of us! I was hoping for a more friendly title, maybe for the next thread?
Zoe, I'm sorry I'm being a cow here, but I really don't agree with you.
Zoe, not all the un-Americans are European so that the mythology and language wouldn't have derived from them either.
