Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

If we're really lucky, they'll do it in that order...

I like Daniel's, though maybe just as Firefly 3: It couldn't be specialer. It's a bit snappier that way.

I am fickle. I have, at various points, liked *all* of those suggestions and several others as well. Y'all vote. I'll be happy.

I like "Too Damned Pretty to Die."

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I like "Too damned pretty to die."

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Yeah, I'll gladly switch my vote to "Too Damned Pretty to Die".

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

"Too damned pretty to die" for me.

Maybe "Still Flying" if and when.

Although I still love "I'll be in my bunk"

Thanks for all the fish.

I like 'Too Pretty To Die' more than the damned version.

That's because you're Canadian, Elena.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I'm with Elena. Too Pretty to Die. It's closer to the original (isn't it? must go check), and the 'damn' seems repetitive after the "Big Damn Heroes/Evil" stuff.

I like "Too pretty to die," but we really need to find a way to use "It Couldn't Be Specialer." It just sounds and looks so cool.
