No. Giles had his own angst, which rules him out as flabotinum, and was regularly mocked as dorky, which rules him out as a Mary Sue.
Although he did kind of become flabotinum-ish in S7....

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
No, no, no, in S1/S2 Giles was already serving as a foil -- and sometime antagonist -- for Buffy. Even that last line from the pilot, "The world is doomed," was a character note rather than anything that smells like flabotinum.
Also, I mean, if not for Giles, who among us would know what a stevedore is? I ask you!

Because books.
I think flabotinum is my new favorite word.

Arcadia also contained Abraham Benrubi. (KUBIAC!)
Who I'd love to see on Supernatural. He'd make Padalecki look wee.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Oof. It's a good thing she's not on Lost, or Ruby would be dead in three episodes.

Ruby would be dead in three episodes.
This might not make some people sad.
Man, that is so dumb. You lied, and now it just looks worse!

Well, he was on Buffy when he was on er - so perhaps he could do an episode of SPN. (It would rock for Sam to seem wee.)
