Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

'The Cautionary Tale of Numero Cinco'


Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai  

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I have the hardcover version of that book ... somewhere.

I got rid of my paperback at some point, woes.

(Please, nobody offer to lend me anything. I'm horrible at returning things, and then the guilt crushes me and I'm retroactively sad at ever having seen the thing. It's better if I do it on my own dime, even if it takes years.)

JZ made me laugh, because I have done the same thing.

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

I'm horrible at returning things

Don't you have my 30 Rock ? (This is not a guilt thing. Return at your leisure. Sometimes I just need to remind myself where things are.)

It's better if I do it on my own dime, even if it takes years.

I think Seanan had my Wonderfalls DVDs for a couple years. Also, one of my friends borrowed my VCR in...2008? 2009?

I kept The Long Way Round for three years, I think, from my friends J & J. They went from being childless to having a toddler. And my friend Bob has had my Kitchen Confidential DVDs for I don't even know how long.

Because books.

This reminds me I have a book of Teppy's she lent me ... four years ago? Yikes.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Yes, P-C, yes, I do. You should come hang out some time and get them back (and maybe borrow something of ours to even things out (and also because you make Matilda laugh like a drain, and I swear sometime I want to see her with you and Emmett together, because her head might explode from sheer giddy joy)).

I approve of this plan.

JZ,

can't you borrow these from the library?

I have, uh, daunting late fees I need to clear away first (see above, re: rotten at returning things).

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I totally forgot about that! You coulda had yourself a free book if you had kept quiet!

I will send it back, I promise! But ... maybe I'll read it again first.
