Buffistas

Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

"and then they colonized the island and Virginia Dare was born and apparently they all died but there was the word Croatoan carved into a tree trunk the end. Let's talk about the Dutch!"

You never got the fun mystical stuff? That's too bad.

Apparantly I'm the only one here who read Tales of the Slayers, Vol 1, where Virginia Dare is a Slayer.

No, I read it as well. But I knew the story before I read the book.

Anyway, in NC, Virginia Dare is huge, huge stuff. Every kid gets the story as much as I got John Smith and Pocahontas.

We get Daniel Boone in Tennessee, and Ben Franklin and Dinah Shore in Franklin County.

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

Non-sectarian mysticism at a Catholic school? NSM.

Wow, I hadn't realized Dinah Shore was that old. Her looks really held up pretty well.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

We got the San Juan Pig Wars.

And, umm. The Oregon Trail.

Heh. I think she'd dead now, dude. Plus she's from my country or whatever, and we have a Boulevard named after her.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Apparantly I'm the only one here who read Tales of the Slayers, Vol 1, where Virginia Dare is a Slayer.

That's the book version right? I have the graphic novel, but haven't read the short stories.

Wasn't Darla from Roanoke, though, and isn't it insinuated that she and the Master wiped out the colony?

Remember, remember/the fifth of November/the Gunpowder Treason and Plot/I see no reason/Why Gunpowder Treason/Should ever be forgot.

Hard to believe that Victor, the house she was in was way, way too nice for an early colony like Roanoke.

But historical accuracy was never too big on ME's priority list...

Also, the subtitle in that scene said "The Virginia Colony", or something like that. I'm not sure that would include Roanoke.

Well, the Viriginia colony would have been founded after Roanoke disappeared...

Ah, well. Haven't seen that one for awhile.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

The script says 1607, and I'm going to try very hard to ignore the very well-established colony, not to mention the presence of nuns, in the year Jamestown was founded.

See me? I'm ignoring. lalalalalalala...
