"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
What the linked thing? It was just the post Tim wrote about having something in the works.

Ah. No biggie then.
Except for the damn link, that is.

I don't think it was spoilery, unless the status of possible Buffy spinoffs is considered so. The particular reference is copied here, and whitefonted:
From chatgirl76: Any news on a Buffy spinoff? Nada for now, but it sounds like Joss and Tim Minear have something else in the works. Tim said so on the buffistas.org message board, which has sparked much speculation on what it could be...other than good, which is a given.

Brenda, they mentioned that Tim was here and implied something about a Tim & Joss having something in the works.
I inadvertantly got spoiled for a casting spoiler for Angel for next year. Am so pissed with myself.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
At least she linked to our front page instead of Tim's post. For some reason, I don't mind that as much.

No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti
Allyson, it couldn't hurt to have the proposal drafted and ready to go. Since someone's been paying attention to the queue, though, I think we should deal with Betsy's first.
Bannings, once applied, have no takebacks. That's what gives them teeth, and that's what makes them a last resort. (Also, that's what justifies and puts to rest all of the yammering that is required to make a banning happen.)
Emphasis added. And a great example of disagreeing that is 100% calm argument and not even .02% nastiness.
Say, should I actually propose "Any Buffista who gets a show gets their own thread"?
That would be great, because I'm getting my own reality show next season. It's going to be called "Real World Noumenon: Master of All I Survey." Come to think of it, just put the proposal on hold and I'll enact it with a flourish of my scepter during the season premiere.
Maybe it did reduce this magic popularity cash,
Even snappier than "social capital," although it doesn't encompass all the forms social capital can take, such as the checkable deposits on reserve at the Buffista gallery. And of course the great thing about social capitalism is that we're all in control of the means of production! (Not strictly true, of course -- little social capital is possessed by the members of the proletarian "lurking class" -- but social capitalism is destined to eventually give way to the establishment of an egalitarian lurker's paradise.)

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Another myth bites the dust. Buffistas don't blindly vote YES on everything.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
At least she linked to our front page instead of Tim's post. For some reason, I don't mind that as much.
I was thinking the same thing -- because there's no way a random person who clicks through is going to be able to find Tim's posts without a lot of work. I like making people work for the goodies.

Our wings are not tired.
Thanks for the permission to not read the past few hundred posts Brenda. With limited time I really want to stay focused on show threads and natter about Buffistas in love.
Also, I ended up voting NP with the notion that if I ever wanted to bring up something less publicly I could send a note to the Admins.
