ORLY? Let's talk!
Really, I would like to go outside for a smoke with you.
If every vampire who said he was at the crucifixion was actually there, it would have been like Woodstock.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just figured out my Halloween costume.
Great idea!

I just may have to turn in my Buffista card. I couldn't make it through a quarter of LOTR, the book, and I haven't seen any of the movies. I do not get the love, but I do not begrudge others their joy. Don't kill me, please?
I'm with you, I don't like them either.

Because books.
I never read the books, but I loved the movies. Which surprised me, really.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I had to slog through the books to finish, but I did like the movies.
I've read The Hobbit a few times, though. That one I enjoyed.

The books don't exactly zip along.

t weeps over the benighted non-Tolkien lovers. Realizes that just leaves more for her. Stops weeping and prices another set of the Trilogy for lo, her copy has worn out.

I read the Hobbit and, while it was an entertaining story, the writing was pretty bad in my opinion. I couldn't get past the first chapter of the first LOTR books. I loved the movies though!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
See, my Buffista card's in jeopardy because I'm a sports-- what's the opposite of afficianado? Yeah, that. Don't follow, don't like, don't care, no matter what your poison: baseball, football, soccer, basketball, Aussie football, track, field, cross-ountry, gymnastics, shot put, discus, cross-country or downhill skiing, snowshoeing, mountain biking, motorcross, Nascar (sorry, Cass!), Formula I, stickball, roller blading--don't care, don't play, don't watch. I occasionally follow ice skating, but since the rules change and aging out of familiar competitors, I lost interest. I'll watch surfing on tv, but come on, is that a sport or a pursuit? Rock climbing, ditto.
So, you know sports heretic.
And I love the LotR movies, but only managed to get through the books once, during a bedridden bout of pneumonia. H has been known to get his way by waving one of them at me in threat. I'm a huge sf-fantasy fan, and will watch a lot of SiFi (ptui!) movies and series that are...questionable in quality, just to get my otherworld fix.
So, we get some edges punched on our card and others never do get validated. 'S all good. Buffistas are exclusively inclusive like that.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Nascar (sorry, Cass!), Formula I,
Wrong order.
