This thread has been fantastic to learn about new people and catch up with people who drifted away. Lurkers, please post more often!
Yes, this!
And also, MARIA! Hello, sorella!
Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' you did there. Wash: That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

Before this thread goes all Brigadoon on us (although we'll only have to wait one year, not 100, for it to appear again) let me just say how much I love you all. Yep,all. Lurkers, regular posters, old heads and newbies alike. Buffistas has seen me through good times and bad times. I still remember posting in Natter that my grandfather had passed and that I hadn't been able to get dressed for days and days and I had that yucky, moldy feeling on my teeth from not brushing them for waaay too long. And I got more virtual hugs, hairpats and good vibes than any unwashed, funky person could conceivably hope for. I love waking up to "Timelies" because it's night, morning, and every time in between with Buffistae in far flung corners of the globe. ita is a wonder for proposing this thread. It warmed the cockles of my . . . heart. Yes, let's go with heart.

Kat! Before this thread closes, we really need to reconnect. Let's do dinner some night, okay, local girl?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
This has been the best thread ever! lcat, I'm awed by your longevity and dedication, and yay last-minute delurkage!
And {{{Maria}}} It's so very good to see your font!

"We have trust issues." Mylar
Yes. This. Hit me up at my profile address. I have been the world's worst LA-ista, but I plan to remedy that.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Thanks Andi! It's kicking my ass right now, but it's nice to have the validation.
Sorella! I hope you're feeling better.
{{{JZ}}} Those'll have to do, since I'm on the wrong coast at the moment.
And kat puts it perfectly. 'Nuff said.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
This truly has been an awesome thread. Massive kudos to ita for thinking of it.

Maria!
It's been great seeing you all. Terrific idea, ita.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Just have to say goodbye to this thread, it has been a Blast .
and seconding the notion that you can delurk anytime -- and it is fine if all you want to say say is "Hi I agree!" ( If you disagree you have to say more )
