'And on that tragic day, an era came to its inevitable end.' That's all there is.

The Frogurt is poisoned

It's illustrating an article "Industry Fights Rearguard Action as Culture Comes Under Attack"

How to stop the slide towards what one speaker depicted as a "Buffy/Raymond/CNN society" - that is one dominated by inane US sitcoms and ubiquitous news programs - emerged as a central concern at last week's Screen Producers Association of Australia conference in Melbourne.

This person was apparently an idiot Senator named Marise Payne who declared

"We have to be very alert, very cognisant of the challenges and those who oppose the view we take - those who want the world to be a Buffy/Raymond/CNN society.
Which I think we all agree would be pretty objectionable."

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Everyone knows we should be striving for a Buffy/Angel/Firefly society.

Wrod! I'll strive for that!

Can someone tell me if there are any British MPs who stand for creating a Buffy/Angel(/Firefly, if you must- I've never seen it) society?

Art Crawl!!!

Buffy/Raymond/CNN? What weirdo slash is that?

Buffy/CNN- it's the latest trend in femslash. Raymond just turns it into this strange threesome thing though, and it's of the bad.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Sorry, just flashed on Buffy/Connie Chung. Make it stop! Make it stop!

Connie Chung? I think I'm missing a vital piece of information- like who she is. However, I'm sure she's very slashable.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

I'm sure she's very slashable.

Uh, no.

You're saying that there is someone who isn't slashable? I'm not sure I believe you.

Sorry, Am-Chau. Went with the Americanism there. Connie Chung is a CNN news personality, and former network news anchor. She and Buffy would be just creepy. Although actually, she and her actual husband (Maury Povitch, another news personality) are probably even creepier.
