Shouldn't feel bad for being honest. Maybe a little uncomfortable on her behalf, but that's just because you're nice.

Spike's Bitches 41: Thrown together to stand against the forces of darkness
[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.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Hello everyone! I have nothing helpful to impart, because I think I've missed, oh, between 5 and 10 thousand posts and there's only so much skimming a person can do. But halloooo! I missed you, beautiful board!

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I always speculated "that is not my beautiful cake" was a reference to the Talking Heads song Same as it ever was (specific line: This is not my beautiful wife)
I kind of assumed that it was "Same as it Ever Was" plus "MacArthur Park." But I have nothing at all to back that up.
I'd assumed Same as it Ever Was plus that whole 'have your cake and eat it' thing.
t pedant The song title is "Once in a Lifetime," if you mean the Talking Heads song. t /pedant
I'm still fuzzy on where the beautiful cake saying came from -- I wasn't asking for the etymological background; "not my beautiful [noun]" is pretty damned obvious as a Talking Heads line. THAT reference didn't elude me. (But the Talking Heads didn't sing about cake, at least in that song, hence my confusion.)
I just wondered why cake, and if it was a fandom thing like John Ringo or whoever. But it seems that it's actually a Buffista thing vs. fandom as a whole (yes?) (at least so far), and it's just one of those things that someone said and now it's a Thing.
Izzat about right?

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

Yup. I think there was a metaphor about how your beautiful cake may be totally disgusting to somebody else (possibly shrift), but that's okay so long as you don't stuff your beautiful cake in her face. Or something.

All is well that ends in pizza.
If you Zat a cake, it gets a bit messy.
Or would it? it's primarily an electrical weapon, but doesn't seem to cause anything in the way of heat or mess.
Okay, you can Zat a cake, but stand back a bit. And don't fire three times.
I'm pretty sure SG-1 would back me up on this.
