Oooh, that does sound good. I want to know what that gingery liquor was, I didn't know there was one.

The combination of too few hours in the day and this shiny new thread has caused me to be about 1000 posts behind in my other threads. Well, limited time is the big factor.

I am enjoying this thread ever so much. Hello lurkers! Wonderful to meet you. And I am still finding out new things about my old friends. This thread - made of win.

Oh, this thread is definitely made of win.

Hiya lurkers! So fun to see you.

And I, sadly, have yet to have a F2F with entirely too many people and am dying of jealousy but consoling myself with the fact that I'm soon to be in one of the best cities for Buffista F2F-age.

I love Fernet even though I hate the taste. It's a thing. I will note that mixing it with other alcohol voids the no-hangover warranty.

I did not like Fernet.

This is fortunate as it, I later discovered, contains myrrh. I am (oddly, I know) allergic to myrrh. And while chuch incense has only ever made me itchy and breathy and pukey I do not relish the thought of what myrrh could do to me ingested in any quantity.

I am (oddly, I know) allergic to myrrh.

Myrrh allergies make the baby Jesus cry.

"I'm not asking the Wisemans to the party--they always bring crappy gifts. Myrrh--who does that?"

And aha. I've always thought Fernet tastes like incense.

Also? The true single malt is Glenmorangie. Well, *I* like it, anyway.

Hi everyone! I'm Leigh, which is short for my real name Louisa, which I finally decided I like only to discover that in a professional setting, people will be calling me Louise a lot. Because three is one syllable too many?

I've been a pretty dedicated Buffista lurker. I de-lurked here some time ago (my memory keeps insisting this was when I was sixteen, so 8 years ago, but that seems...wrong. Very wrong. 8 years, really? 16 year old me was pretty obnoxious so, uh..sorry about that). I posted for a while, but shifted to livejournal and ran out of time for both. Sometimes I've drifted away, but now I keep up with Literary, most of the TV threads and Natter when Kanye does something stupid and the rest of the internet is slow on the details.

I live in Canberra, Australia, and the time difference has kept me from re-de-lurking. Well, that and shyness? Habit? Laziness? Possibly some kind of unholy union of the three... but mostly laziness.

I've been won round to liking olives in small doses, I call cilantro coriander and I had to look up the definition of the serial comma on wikipedia (oh, English Degree. How often I shame you) and being thus informed, I feel that a blithe disinterest in my own potential inconsistencies has served me well so far.

Buffy and Angel were my first true fannish obsessions and I've never really fallen that hard for anything since, but I love knowing that if there's something worth reading or watching then odds are there'll be someone here getting all witty & insightful about it.

Is it ironic that I've realised I'm really just lurking in this thread?

Hi, un-lurky lurker types.

I'm totally lurking the delurk thread Seska. It is made of win.
