You can't leave me to my own devices; my devices are Nap and Eat. -Zenkitty

If you want to be defined totally by your willingness to snuggle with people who love you when you don't love them the same way, then be my guest, but you're going to have to accept that I'm going to feel a certain way about you. Or you could not care, which is probably the best way to deal.

Right. That's all well and good, and I can certainly accept that you're going to feel a certain way about it, and your guess is very accurate - my response is likely to not care, but what I'm trying to say is that maybe you should at least think about it that two people can do this, be aware of what's happenening, and be okay with it, and not consider it using.

What I'm saying is that by saying "you're going to have to accept that I'm going to feel a certain way about you," you're expecting me to do something you're not willing to do yourself, ie - you're not willing to accept that maybe what happened between Spike and Buffy is not using. Not in the way you mean it.

I'm willing to try to see things your way, and yet you're not even a tiny bit willing to try to see things my way.

You don't have a problem with that?

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

Anya, too.

Yep. Wood also gets a pass on dying, as a kind of belated affirmative action after Kendra, Trick, Forest etc.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Season Five: Buffy dies/Buffy gets to live her life for real.

Also, a portal is closed thanks to someone's self-sacrifice

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

Season Five: Buffy dies/Buffy gets to live her life for real.

Season Five: Buffy saves the world through shared blood, and is lifted from her burden/Buffy saves the world through shared power, and is lifted from her burden.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Also, a portal is closed thanks to someone's self-sacrifice

Oh, point. OK. I can stand by my theory now!

I look more rad than Lutheranism

But really, did the Amulet of Beautiful Redemptive Death *have* to be so drag-queeny? Even RuPaul wouldn't have worn it.

For a second there victor, I thought you're parallel drawn between this episode and S2 was going to be...

Season Two: Buffy has to banish Angel to Hell to stop the world from being sucked into Hell/ Buffy banishes Angel back to Los Angeles

But that's just because even while living here, LA = Hell jokes are funny.

"Angel and Spike, The Starsky and Hutch of the Netherworld" - Albert Einstein in his speech to the U.N. Security Council, Sept., 1955.

2, 6, 3, 1, 4, 7, 5.

In that order.

Yay for some season 6 love.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

3, 2, 4, 1, 5, 7, 6 for me.

I didn't mention it on the Movie thread, but Jim was partially right about the Wild Bunch nod in the middle, just after the Last Scooby Moment.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Wait, no. I think it was the shot of Buffy practically flying across the collapsing rooftops that was my favorite.

I turned to DH and said, "Crouching Vampire, Hidden Slayer."

Let's see, my ranking of the seasons:

2, 3, 4, 7, 5, 1, 6.

Off the top of my head. Ask me tomorrow, and I might give you a different answer.
