Buffistas

I don't give a good gorram about relevant, Wash. Or objective. And I ain't so afraid of losing something that I ain't gonna try to have it. You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I think it'll ease off some as the Wonderfalls hysteria dies down.

My new metaphor for massive influx of newbies is The Nile overflowing its banks, spreading it's warm effluvial and fertile mud (stellar new posters) and then retreating back to its banks (drivebys keep driving).

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

I'm reminded of the Simpsons episode where they build the pool, and the entire population of Springfield drops by. I've been feeling a little like Marge making eleventy million sandwiches for the guests.

What is even happening?

How about...

That's kind of sexy. Maybe I am closer to the earth.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

You're such an optimist, Hec.

Maybe we should see what April and May look like, bandwidth-wise, and discuss, then.

Unless Joss comes in and announces in-thread auditions for Firefly Movie casting, in which case, we're sending him the bill.

My opinion may be colored by the fact that I'm getting married, going to New Orleans, going to the F2F and my book is coming out this year.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I don't think we'll be in a position to consider a cheaper host any time in the near future, and we can afford what we've got so far, so I'm not worried. If a lot of new people stick around, they'll cough up.
