Zee's kinda, you know, wishy washy."
Yes, there is. There's a hurry, Xander. I'm dying...I may have as few as fifty years left.

ita's thread
A place where we can talk about ita, miss ita, and share information about memorials. The hugging started over here in Natter.

for the book
"In high school I picked up a cockney accent. My mother went ballistic. But my best friend was about the only cockney in school, and I've always been impressionable like that. I did cave to my mother's explosion, and dropped the accent for one more typical.
Which meant that by the time I hit university in Canada, I was the snooty English girl.
I've always sounded like I'm from someplace else, due to being Jamaican and learning to speak in Canada."

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I wish I could see every ita link I skipped over. I would click on them now.
She put warnings there for a reason. After the goatse vs tubgirl links I learned to read them carefully.

addressing her name issues a bit
"As for Ids, we've got to blame Word's auto-correct feature. If I didn't spend so much time making it uncapitalize my name, I'm not sure I'd have noticed what it does to two letter initials. Very annoying."

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

Oh fuck. It's been a long time since I've been here but I'm still a Buffista at heart. I just read the news on FB and couldn't quite process it until I came here to double-check. I still can't process it but I have to accept the veracity of what I read. A world without ita is a sad, sad place. Deepest condolences to all the Buffistas and to all her other friends and family. I know everyone is as heart-broken as myself. :( :( :(
Vale ita

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I'm hundreds of posts behind in Movies, and catching up mostly to hear ita's voice, and this made me snort out loud.
Considering Sherlock, I feel like I've seen Cumberbatch do comedy. What I need from him now is porn.

Do you all think that we can get the obit to print ita correctly? Or will they automatically correct? These are things I think about.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
It's a concern. You wouldn't want to capitalize her.
I'm reading Natter 43 (which Kat flat out called Natter's Greatest Hits while it was happening), and it has - among other things - Nutty fighting a cheetah, everybody being called out on their actual height and the first appearance of this:

I encourage you all to start at the beginning of the thread and just read through to the end because we're fun.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
No you don't! Those links are better unclicked! You were properly warned!
I'm pretty sure they'll automatically correct. And that will be sad.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I was explaining ita more to Tim tonight, including how we all learned the hard way to never click her links. And that led to him looking up Two Girls One Cup, because he -- somehow -- was unfamiliar with it.
ita is STILL touching lives, man. Because now he KNOWS.
