Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?  

[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.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I, uh, really don't like Love, Actually. That's as mildly as I can put it.

Ayup. (My feelings towards that film can best be summed up as "STAB STAB STABBY HATE STAB")

There was a very good reason why I didn't see it when it came out, and now I'm realizing that it's good I haven't bothered to correct that.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Laurence Housman's "Cloak of Friendship" is my one true Christmas story. If interested, you can find it here: [link]

I, too, have never seen it. Don't have an urge to, either.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I've always loved the David Bowie-Bing Crosby version of Little Drummer Boy. And there is an Emerson Lake and Palmer Xmas song, I think it's called Father Christmas but I'm not sure. Anyway, very powerful pull for me, that song.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

"I Believe in Father Christmas." It one of my favorites.

I love the book A Christmas Carol, but I don't really have a one true movie or staged version. Great Christmas stories include the beginning of Little Women and when Mr. Edwards meets Santa Claus in A Little House on the Prairie.

"Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" is the one that always gets me. I adore The Pretenders' take on it, but Judy Garland's version in "Meet Me In St. Louis" is the one that kills it for me.

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

I've always loved the David Bowie-Bing Crosby version of Little Drummer Boy.

I love the Dandy Warhols version they used in Veronica Mars.

Another one that gets me is "I'll Be Home for Christmas."

Dandy Warhols and Dresden Dolls, eh? Are you sure you're not a hipster?

I also like Sufjan Stevens. SHIT.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Do you enjoy them in a detached ironic way, or do you go a little nuts at their shows?
