Jossian feminism

I guess that's somewhere in the feminist dictionary between cultural feminism and liberal feminism. ;)

Btw, I say nay, but tonight is a night for the yay sayers. Day may be the way for the naysayers, 'kay?

What I love most about you core whores: the foreplay .... tina F.

I'm tearing up right now thinking of the girl that's going to hit that stupid softball right out of the park and she doesn't know why

What got me was the image of a woman being throttled, suddenly getting the power and mashing the perp's potatoes.

But was the storytelling a lie? (sorry for the serial post).

msbelle!!! Glad you are whooping it up (as opposed to shooping it up, like I typed first, although I have no idea if shooping is a good thing, or a bad thing or anything, really) with the MA Buffistas.

Why am I not doing likewise - partly because I feel I just de-lurked too recently, and partly beacuse I didn't know (though I suspected there would be something in the MA/Worcester/Sommerville axis going down) about the Worcester shindig (or is that gathering? Hootnanny? whatever - there are ferrets - it's a par-tay!) until too late. I live in Salem, and even if I had a ride all the way home (and I don't know of any North Shore Buffistas), I have a commute that is ridiculously early. If I'd felt more in the swing of things, and knew enough in advance, I would have arranged something, most likely, as I would love to get to know the Bay State (and other New Englandly-type) Buffistas in a F2F way.

Wow, to much natter for the Buffy thread. Anyway, that's da scoop. Back to the final Buffy.

"The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be."

So many drunken MA Buffistas. It's a madhouse, a MAAAADhouse.

Victor's space key is very wonky, that's why everyone seems to be posting drunk.

Oh, yeah, Buffy. Didn't hate it. Unlike the rest of the year.

"Did you find anything out about the scythe?" "Yeah, it's an AXE!" Even Angel, not the sharpest pointy thing in the box of pointy things could tell it was an AXE. AXE. If you're lazy, AX!

P.S. msbelle would like it made clear that she did hate it.

Hello! I must be going.

Sorry, my folks stopped by on their way home to say hi because it's my birthday..

The more I think about it, the more the faults fall away. People were right--it was that Buffy was alone and chosen specially that made her angrier more than the actual fighting, which I think she sort of enjoyed as she got better and better at it. She didn't seem to have problems with the mission per se--she saw the vampires and knew they were evil and all.

So, do folks think the First Evil is stopped for good or has it just moved on to Cleveland? I think the latter. In fact, now that the Good has just gotten so much stronger, Evil might gain some strength.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I live in Salem, and even if I had a ride all the way home (and I don't know of any North Shore Buffistas),

Hey, Ken, I'm in Swampscott! At least until I move out to Western Mass. next week. I didn't go to the Worcester finale party either, however, since I promised my mother I'd watch it with her.

Happy birthday, Caroma!

Ha, it's funny that all the MA Buffistas--even those of us that weren't at the Worcester party--are posting drunk. MA represent! or something.

My mother would like to make it known that she wants Buffy and Spike to still end up together.

Kate - moving from Swampscott to Western MA?

Damn, this must be a trend. My best friend moved from Lynn (but literally, she lived a few yards from the Swampcott line) to Northampton. I spent some time out in the Amherst/N-hampton area back in my college-ish days, so I don't begrudge those who'd move out there - it's a lovely part of New England (which means one of the most lovely parts of the world IMHO). I wish I could do that, but I have seemed to fall into an actual career, and I don't see any good way out of it at the moment, gorram it!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Was I the only one who thought that Andrew was going to get slayer powers also?

OK, then.
