This is so nice. Having everyone together for my birthday. Of course, you could smash in all my toes with a hammer and it will still be the bestest Buffy Birthday Bash in a big long while.

Buffy ,'Potential'


Boxed Set, Vol. IV: It's always suicide-mission this, save-the-planet that.  

A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

I want to know, if dude canna eat fresh fruit pies, due to his own cheapitude, why is he not making custard pies? Pecan pie, lemon meringue pie, chess pie, grasshopper pie (which is actually marshmallows and creme de menthe)?

Show some imagination, pie dude! Or quit being so damn cheap.

Ned was only going back for Halloween, it seems. Or rather, going back to be emo on Halloween night, which makes it easy to avoid the family he bereaved.

He can eat fresh fruit pies; he can't eat pies made from fruits that were rotten, that he's re-freshed.

By selling re-freshed fruit pies, he accomplishes two things:
1. He creates an especially tasty pie, since the fruit is extra fresh once he's revived it.
2. He cuts costs by using free (or very cheap) rotten fruit.

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

why is he not making custard pies

I wonder if the cooked eggs would turn into chickens.

but, but... have you seen the prices of flowers these days? (Unless Ned goes to Walmart before they kill off their own product).

It was a terrific non sequitur there for a moment.

Like I said. Canna eat his own pies, due to his own cheapitude. (Or his dislike of sweet potato pie -- come on! Less than $1 a pound! It takes like 6 months for sweet potatoes to go bad! Live a little, will you??)

If he can make a pie out of zucchini, for two weeks out of the year his neighbors might even pay him to take their produce off their hands, and then pay again for the results (if you can convince people to eat zucchini pie).

Is it like zucchini bread (with nuts, please!)?

I had sweet potato soup, and it was divine. Pie I imagine would be yum as well.

Shoot, Ned could corner the market on fresh fruit pies that are out of season. Strawberry-Rhubarb Pie 365 days a year! *goes to happy place*

Why would you presume his motivation for piemaking is to make pies for his own consumption? Seems like misplaced agita.
