Tara: Do you have any books on robots? Giles: Oh, yes, dozens. There's a lot of research to be done in order to--no, I'm lying. Haven't got squat. I just like watching Xander squirm.

'Get It Done'


The Minearverse 6: Fiery Thread of Death

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath. Oh, and help us get Terriers dvds!

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

I love the emotional bonds. I like Brit and Hank having problems and still working together. I like Hank being able to be there for his ex-wife, despite the drama from beforehand. I am perhaps a less good person than any of them, but it's good to see.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I had seen the ep where Brit beats the FUCK out of the wrong dude, and I thought at the time, "He's going to kill him. Who survives this sort of beating?"

And it seemed like the correct thing for this character. Scary as hell and screaming of ISSUES.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

OMFG OMFG OMFG OMFG.

I actually thought Brit was double-crossing and was surprised at the triple-cross. And then Ashley, and then the liquor store.

OMFG OMFG OMFG OMFG.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Trying to keep track with all of the double and triple corssings, for a minute I thought maybe Laura is double crossing and the whole thing was staged.

Also? Good one, Tim.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I actually thought Brit was double-crossing and was surprised at the triple-cross.

Me too! Surprised and pleased!

And then Ashley

She was cute!

and then the liquor store.

SHIT JUST GOT REAL.

I like how the conspiracy endgame is so...mundane in a sinister way. I mean, it's not some sort of Evil Overlord World Domination Facility. It's just...an airport. That, uh, kind of requires razing the entire town.

It was so, "of course it's an airport!" when you actually live here and have been listening to the bitching about Lindbergh Field for a couple of decades, too. It suddenly got so very real and literally close to home.

Duh, P-C, you just hadn't seen this episode. I was thinking you hadn't seen any of it.
