Anya: It's lovely! I wish it was mine! Oh like you weren't all thinking the same thing. Giles: I'm fairly certain I wasn't.

[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.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Of course the tv series with Megan Follows was best, with Richard Farnsworth and Colleen Dewhurst as Matthew and Marilla.
I always missed Anne of Green Gables on PBS, but have seen Anne of Avonlea several times. Since I didn't have the emotional ties to the backstory, I always wanted her to stay with hot!dad of her student.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Dude, no! Gilbert Blythe!
Also, that storyline is conflated from a few different storylines in books 2-4. I know you care deeply about this, but apparently I am Bob likes carrots about Anne Shirley.

Thrive to spite them
I've read Anne of Green Gables but I think just the first two books. I have most of them, I think I'll start rereading.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Something to add to the rudeness discussion: People who pull into gas stations with their music at highway volumes and don't at least turn it down.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Sean, what a bitch. And the last thing you needed right now.
I have read all the Anne books many times, but have forgotten a lot! Loved the PBS series. All of which reminds me I owe Aims a package. And Connie, too.

I'm so glad that askye is still here with us.
In the context of the book, it's more bittersweet than sad. It shows that the orphan Anne has a real home. I've read very many Anne books. (I've also saw the green gables house on PEI when I was about 14, which was an excellent age for it.)

Of the non-Anne LMM books, I loved The Blue Castle. Pure wish fulfillment stuff in retrospect, which was so tasty to me at that age.

Yeah. Still makes me cry, though.
