kat perez, discussing favorite/unfavorite seasons:
See, the only thing I might have liked to have seen from S4 Angel was BRSD, cause evil and platform shoes truly are a match made in heaven.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

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

"There is no emoticon to express how I feel"
I think part of the trouble is that we cover a wide variety of things with the single term 'spoiler'. From short episode summaries, through particular plot points to line for line transcripts.
For example (entirely fictional):
(i) (TV Guide Summary). "Buffy and the gang fight a Jello(tm) monster."
(ii) (more detail) "Willow's dessert-enhancing spell goes awry and Sunnydale is menaced by a terrifying Jello(tm) monster."
(iii) (particular plot point) "In tonight's episode Giles is slowly digested by a gelatinous cube. The special effects are particularly good and gross."
(iv) (vague pointers) "Significant cast changes are afoot after tonight's encounter with a malevolent instant pudding."
(v) (line for line) "Xander: And we're reconsidering Jello's status as a 'fun' dessert. Buffy: Kiss me, you fool."
We need a standardized ratings system for spoilers, and little icons to go next to them. And a puppy.

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

So confess, Nilly.... you just have all the post numbers memorised, and use the numbers as little mnemonics to remember who posted them, and what they said?
