Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Spike's Bitches 38: Well, This Is Just...Neat.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Compassionately intolerant

becoming one of the figureheads of the cult we will invariably start

I want to sign up for the eastern chapter of that cult now! Beat the rush, eh?

the only thing that I could do is cook and boss people around.

I have a feeling Buffista will become a rank designation, like Corporal, Captain or Admiral in the Apocalypse. S/he who must be obeyed!

Awesome. Want to become a high-ranking member of my cult?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

the only thing that I could do is cook and boss people around.

Awesome! I can eat and ignore you. Yin and yang, my friend.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I wonder what my Apocaplyse Skill Set would be?

I actually took survival classes in AK, so I'm all prepared for nuclear winter! Um, I can direct entertaining shows? Oh! I can work on gas-powered motors! Yes. Especially if they're older, which will be an asset if EMPs take out the computer governors in new cars. Right.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Hmm. Whatever would I busy myself doing in a lawless world full of panicking people?

Now tagless for your comfort.

I could identify the CHUDs. And cook over an open fire.

This conversation is making me eager to see the new version of I am Legend.

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

Build a web-based discussion board?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Alexia has a list (and, IIRC, a spreadsheet) for What We Need If The Apocalypse Happens.
There's a spreadsheet. And fascinating cocktail party conversation.

Can I join the cult? Wait ... haven't I *already* joined the cult?
