And the Key.
Huh. Forgot about her. I didn't see her. Who? *g*
And an extraordinarily powerful witch.
I discount Willow because her powers were self-induced. She has powers, but because she wanted them and sought them out. Not really classified as demon.
Four people on that bus have no superhuman aspects
I don't know. Andrew was, at one point, pretty heavy coming with the magic. So was Giles.
Her creation, sure. I'm a little tetchy (like Jesse on Angel's "death") because there are so many fen references to her still being supernatural.
Gee, it was such a pretty observation.
So was mine. Which is why I come to the Buffy thread. It helps me realize that I have no understanding of the show in any way. *g*

Though to be fair to those who talk about Angel's death, even he refers to it as dying. (Did in Dear Boy.)
OK, I braved the TT thread. One poster made a number of posts on BtVS as pro-War on Drugs propaganda, with vampires as addicts and the Scoobs as government policies. Can't say I was persuaded. But did have the great line:
Does the Slayer protect humanity or protect the memory of the Spice Girls?
Not much response to her, mostly DNFTEC warnings.
And from a different poster, in memoriam:
But what I really want to know is -- what did Mark Hellish think?
WARNING: Much open discussion there of an Angel spoiler.
If this post is poor netiquette, please let me know. I'll delete.

It's really only in comparison that it bothers me. He wasn't dusted, is what I'm saying. I mean, he's a vampire -- obviously death is no deterrent to having a nice life, but when people are talking about a vampire dying, generally they mean staking, to never return (or at least not without the big mojo, cf. Darla).
Remonds me of the woman who wrote to Reader's Digest screaming at them for supporting JK Rowling when, "according to internet newspaper The Onion, she is recuiting millions of children to her satanic cult."
When I was in college, around '89 or so, a very conservative guy had a whole diatribe of a report in our 400-level *Journalism* class. In it he lambasted demonic imagry and lyrics in the record industry.
His prime example was Spinal Tap's album.
After his diatribe, read aloud in front of the class, he took questions.
I shot up my hand and said "Um, you know that Spinal Tap is a
parody
record, right?" The look on his face said he did not.
I loved every frelling second of the silence in the room.
