This is so nice. Having everyone together for my birthday. Of course, you could smash in all my toes with a hammer and it will still be the bestest Buffy Birthday Bash in a big long while.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I posted a spoiler like a stupid noob.

How do you even remember that? Was I a total bitch about it?

My closest (at work) post office doesn't take a credit card. I am surprised by how many checks I write now related to the children - anything to do with school, after school, etc. tends to be by check. I probably write more checks now than I did 5 years ago.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

How do you even remember that? Was I a total bitch about it?

You were very nice about it. I remember it because it was really my first foray into fandom culture and learning certain rules of discourse.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Just because you learnt it differently, doesn't make it wrong!

Learned, boy. The word is pronounced "learned."

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

And because you have a really good memory, keeper of the Buffista Files.

I remember exactly what you look like with your bosom lit up with glow stick drink stirrers.

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

The word is pronounced "learned."

Not when it's pronounced "learnt". Just like "aluminium" is pronounced "aluminium" no matter what people try and tell me.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Road safety FAIL or alligator WIN?

Ha!

I only write checks for rent, life insurance and donations. I suspect that it's the charitable organizations that will have the most trouble if checks go away. My parents still write checks for groceries, etc. Makes me crazy.

anything to do with school, after school, etc. tends to be by check.

This is how it used to be for me too. Shoot, writing all the checks for K-Bug's senior year is when I taught her how to write checks - made her fill in everything but the signature.

Here in Colorado, the school fees are paid online. They have just about everything school related online including report cards. I got an e-mail saying his report card was ready online for my review and that was the only notice I got.
