Spike: You pissed in the Big Man's Chair? That's fantastic! Gunn: Spike, can you please turn off that warm fuzzy? Spike: What, the Lorne thing? Worn off. I just think that's bloody fabulous.

Voting Discussion: We're Screwing In Light Bulbs AIFG!  

We open it up, we talks the talk, we votes, we shuts it down. This thread is to free up Bureaucracy for daily details as we hammer out the Big Issues towards a vote. Open only when a proposal has been made and seconded according to Buffista policy (Which we voted on!). If this thread is closed, hie thee to Bureaucracy instead!

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Thanks for clarifying Katie. I hope I didn't sound like I was jumping on you.

Our wings are not tired.

Wow, thanks for putting that together Kat. I skipped a few hundred posts and skipped to recent to see what was up. I think I would feel more comfortable voting on the thread issues that involve threads I participate in and abstaining on the threads I never visit.

Jumping in late to ask if we are voting on this stuff anytime soon because there are quite a few points to consider here.

Most of the consolidations make sense to me. In particular #5 is a no-brainer and should take place immediately.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Thanks for clarifying Katie. I hope I didn't sound like I was jumping on you.

Nah. I just figure that when it comes to bureaucratic discussions clarity all-round is a good thing.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Good ballot.

The only part I don't like is closing them all and archiving. It makes more sense to my brain to just close and archive PPO, and perhaps change Bitchy Fic's title to Buffista Fic.

This. If we can change the name, and close and archive PPO and Anthology (?) I think it would be more sensible.

The only change I'd request is sneaking in the Ikea thread name for due South/Smallville.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Due South/Smallville/IKEA/Farscape sounds good to me. :)

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Due South/Smallville/IKEA/Farscape/ would be hilarious.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Why Ikea? Is there some significance to it other than it's fun to say for some people?

Of course, I'm picturing HoYaytastic natter interspersed with "So...is this where I post a question about my ELLNE desk chair?"

It's a semi-pun on "Fannish TV" which sounds like "Finnish TV" which is close enough to Swedish to remind someone (Kat? Katie?) of IKEA.

Which is just kind of stream-of-consciousness humour that appeals to me.
