Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Trying to figure out where to put my recycling... DPW (spit) hasn't updated their alert, so I guess in front...

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

"created the Buffistas"?!!!?

"That group," of which he was a part. Not him specifically.

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

"That group," of which he was a part. Not him specifically.

Yeah, but he wasn't on Salon. He wasn't part of the diaspora, or part of the group at that time. He, or a sockpuppet, or the person whose sockpuppet he now is, first appeared on WX post-diaspora. And he's definitely saying "we" like he was there. He WASN'T.

Sorry. Done shouting. Why am I still so nettled about it all?

Maybe someone should claim being a long ago no longer active Buffista and claim TVTropes is really linked to she who shall not be named.

msbelle wins the internets for today. Please rule them with a firm but benevolent hand.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Staying out of the internet drama.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

He, or a sockpuppet, or the person whose sockpuppet he now is, first appeared on WX post-diaspora. And he's definitely saying "we" like he was there. He WASN'T.

Was he even on WX? I thought he appeared here.

Okay, yeah, I guess, but he/they had less to do with creating this site than I did, and I mostly kibitzed and wrote a few thread descriptions.

Because books.

The weird thing is there was a Bronze (and Beta: Bronze) poster named FASTEddie who is a sweetheart and married to another former Bronzer, and had nothing to do with any of it, as far as I know.

Well, "Fast" Eddie Felson *is* an iconic character.

Oh, I know! I was just surprised to see that name.
