Buffy? I like that. That girl's so hot, she's buffy.

Thrive to spite them

I'm in the a mitch and a myth group of pronunciation of amych and amyth.

And then my board name is just my first initial and my middle name so it's "a sky" .

I switched from Allison S because people would mix me and Allyson up occasionally and since I'm not good at naming things at all that is the best I could come up with.

A few places I'm askyefic because it was fannish related and I started using that for my fanfic so I just tacked fic to the end of it.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I guess I'm the only one who went with 'amy-see-aich' and 'amy-tee-aich' -- I often use my initials (see-aich) to sign things, so it followed naturally for me.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I’m so glad you were able to make it up to NC, smonster. I know how close you and Amyth are, and video/phone/txt just aren’t the same.

Cass, that AT&T stuff is some BS. When I was settling things after my dad died, I noticed how bad some organizations are dealing with death. “I need to cancel X because [Dad’s name] has died. Would you like me to send you a copy of the death certificate for your records?” “I’m sorry. Only the owner of the account can make changes.” “OK. Well the owner’s auto pay card was frozen at his death, so good luck with that account.”

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Just for clarification, my name is pronounced My-rickle-mang.

Cass, sorry about the AT&T abuse.

Hey MM!

I'm here, love you all, also, not enough coffee.

Punishingly Intricate

It's not "ah," it's "ay." Ay-myth, Ay-mitch, Ay-skye.

Orrr ah-myth, ah-mitch, and askie.

It's not "ah," it's "ay." Ay-myth, Ay-mitch, Ay-skye.

Please. It's a-myth, a-mich (the ch pronounced as /χ/ in IPA), and ask-a (as in, how you pronounce the name of the letter a in English).

I guess I'm the only one who went with 'amy-see-aich' and 'amy-tee-aich'

Orrr ah-myth, ah-mitch, and askie.

It wouldn't be Buffistas if we didn't find some way to make this all about pronunciation and/or grammar. I love you all so much.

I don't quite know how I wound up lucky enough to have hung out with amyth in person so many dang times, but I'm so glad I did.

Not really - what I really want to do is go out for dim sum, see a Broadway show and then go out for karaoke in the evening, and none of that is an option this year. So another pleasantly quiet night in with the family it is!

Now tagless for your comfort.

Happy birthday, Jessica! i hope there’s cake.
