I'm being paid to be a professional Goth.
SO. AWESOME.
Xander: I do have Spaghetti-os. Set 'em on top of the dryer and you're a fluff cycle away from lukewarm goodness. Riley: I, uh, had dryer-food for lunch.

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.

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

I'm so sorry for all the bad news that's been dogging you, Maria. Wishing lots of health towards your DH.
Congrats, Jilli! It was only a matter of time and that time has come.
le nub! Take care of yourself, my spoily friend.

not your mom's socks.
Jilli that is fantastic. And a very wise decision on the part of the producers. ION this movie's goth cred just went through the roof.
Dear Oxford Comma Deniers, I love you all but am ignoring you presently.

Oh Sail, it's like I never even *knew* you!
I can't say as I hate the poor beknighted little thing, I just don't like being told I have to use it. It should be used like a rare and expensive wine, selectively and with great care so as not to ruin the bouquet of the prose being elucidated.

Oh Maria, darling sorella-- I'm so sorry this year is being such a mean bitch to you and the familia. Along with what everyone else has said, you have all my love and ~ma and anything else you need--
And indeed, fuck cancer with a rusty chainsaw. Sideways.

I use the Oxford comma in my own letters, postings, etc., but for work I have to deny it its due.

“Not dead yet!”
And because it deserves its own post,
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE, Jilli!! That is SO awesome!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I had a boss call me on putting in the Oxford comma, saying condescendingly she could understand why I thought they were required. *So* not my favourite boss. Getting edits from her was like being styled with a nit comb.
Congratulations Jilli! Professional Goth is so your due!
