Bitches,
because she really speaks for me here, and I suspect for a few others as well:
This all sounds a little too too, but I know people here know what I mean. Buffy did change the way I watch TV, and the way I view and use the internet. It changed the way I write. It changed the way I speak. It brought people into my life I never would have known about. I don't think it changed any of my core values, but I think it made me pay attention to things that might have otherwise passed unnoticed, and helped me to pay attention to the way that I think (both about fiction, and about reality).
I couldn't agree more.

Holy Moly, Corwood, you'd think the Gods of Drama would've been content with
either
vehicles bursting into flames or your brother having a seizure. Have a little narrative economy, eh?

in Bitches, explaining why the course of true love never does run smooth:
If history teaches us anything it's that he's a rent boy with a pregnant girlfriend and his wife is in the mob.
From the same conversation in Natter, connie neil:
What I find interesting in Job is the fact that, far from being bound in hell, Satan's apparently wandering around footloose and fancy free and has right of entry to Heaven. And God, instead of saying, "Get away, you betrayer!" is making bar bets with the guy.
