Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

The first person in that exchange is Kat, I believe.

From Previously.

I'm the straight man, saying why I love BtVS so much:

Other shows have humour, romance, drama, heart-wrenching sadness and so on, but it's normally "one of the above", not all -- I don't know any other show where they're all together in the one place.

Angus:

Wheel of Fortune.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

From Firefly, non-spoilery:

Madrigal (I think):

I have a sinking suspicion that the Jossling has been named William, 'cause Joss does seem the type to willingly name a child Will Whedon.

billytea:

Side note: in my section at work, 60% of all the employees (including me) are called Bill. It's like Joss is scripting my office. Each day I go to work in the knowledge that one of us could die at any time.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

Curse you, wee Dana!

John H:

The only thing wrong with Rear Window is I keep getting confused and thinking it's called Room With A View and end up having very confused conversations with people.

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

More from the Wheel of Fortune arc in Previously:

meara -

So, wait, in Australia, someone from a Trollope novel hosts Wheel of Fortune?? Good LORD, people!

Wait, does that mean other fictional characters exist down there too? <considers buying ticket to go ambush a few favorites...>

Angus G -

Not only that meara, all our puzzles are titles of Victorian novels. We're very educated here...well, all except the contestant who once had to buy a vowel for "M_DDL_M_RCH".
