Mal: Zoe, why do I have a wife? Jayne: You got a wife? All I got is that dumbass stick sounds like its raining. How come you got a wife?

Spike's Bitches 49: As usual, I'm here to help you, and I... are you naked under there?

Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Don't remember much about it(I mean, I think it went well, but also I think that's why I laughed later when Monty Burns gets stuck with Lisa Simpson and he's like "Are you ever off?" I think I've always been a bit like that.) But I have a sense memory of that million bobby pins.

and, aw, it's been twenty years since my last big f2f, although I've had lunches and dinners with such Buffistas as have layovers here(Without the porn) and the like. No big parties, though.

erika, she was going to be Susan B Anthony but changed her mind at the last minute. Also she’s super theatrical so she didn’t like to do anything easy or small.

I guess this is not the kind of costume where carrying around a severed head would be appropriate...

No, -t but if she rewears it for Halloween there will be blood! ltc wasn’t allowed to write her first choice for a scary Halloween story for school this past year because her teacher thought it was too scary for the other kids. My kid will scream like she is dying if she sees a bug, freak out about a cold and shrug off horror content like it is nothing.

Horror usually freaks me out, but I guess I've watched a few graphic thrillers and true crime. Small world with the Anthony thing, though I guess she is a foremother.

I'm kind of a chicken with horror myself, but that's awesome

So the thred up stuff fits. Is it even close to being an authentic period outfit? No. But the wig and guilotine necklace that I got for her will get the point across. And the outfit is more weather appropriate for the unseasonably hot weather we’re having. I’ll post pictures on the FB page when she is wearing the whole costume.
