Buffy 4: Grr. Arrgh.  

This is where we talk about Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No spoilers though?if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it. This thread is NO LONGER NAFDA. Please don't discuss current Angel events here.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

So, this is only related to Buffy by the slimmest of tangents, but--

OB's office calls me yesterday with test results. Diabetes test is fine, but it turns out I'm anemic, so I need to start taking iron pills. I buy the brand they recommend, despite the fact that it is named Slow FE. I fear that, if the whole Caleb thing doesn't work out, the FE is already working another angle. If I start getting uberstrength and black irises, I'll tell you.

Would "Thank god we're hot chicks with superpowers" be too spoily as a tagline? Unattributed, probably without quotation marks.

If she tells Andrew...

Actually, now I kinda want to see this because, while part of Andrew would want to relish in hearing this, I think Andrew would just look at ther with a mildly baffled expression on his face, and when she was over say something like "what are you talking about? I was a villain a year ago, you're just being nice to me." Or something.

Also? I have this somber, lip-quivery feeling just walking into this thread.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Double digits?

To add substance, I think I'd agree with ted if his thought were changed from "no objective standard" to "too many subjective standards." Which may be another way of bringing in the Kantian argument.

But look at us. We already have something in common as Buffistas. And even on the show, just about any opinion will have its dissenters. I don't think there's even an ep about which there's unanimous feeling.

And that's before getting to things like the One True Cookie discussion going on right now in Natter.

Big "AWWWWWW" to the thread title. Props to the thinker-upper.

Buffy loves Angel, and Angel loves Buffy, and they complete each other and make each not lonely and make each other funnier and cooler.

That's my story, and I'm stickin' to it.

Yes, Allyson. If Spike was going to return to his evil, killing, vamp ways, no problem with the attempted rape. But they want us to like Spike and even root for him. Ain't gonna happen after an attempted rape.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I did, too! And then I tried to say an M with a glottal stop. I failed miserably.

As a linguistics minor, I was entertained that the IPA (International Phonetics Alphabet) made it into the penultimate Buffy and I believe I then entertained amyth with my attempts to pronounce m?.

flea, go for the tag I say. wish i'd grabbed it.

AAAARRRRGGGGHHHHH! It's been staring us in the face all along, and we've never realized it! The FE is IRON!!!!!

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Also? I have this somber, lip-quivery feeling just walking into this thread.

I think I have to watch the finale with my Mom. I don't want to watch it alone.

Although we won't be able to talk about it afterward, because she segues immediately into 24, which has its finale next week.

If I only had a brain...

Don't glottal stops pretty much have to follow a vowel by definition?
