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

Hec, did you ever send that tape? I'm not fussing at you, because I know you've been busy with much more wonderful things. But if you did send it, I wanted you to know I'm not an ungrateful wretch. It just never got here.

Nope, but you have effectively bumped it up on my list of things to mail this weekend. Why don't you shoot me your mailing address to my profile addy just to be sure.

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

Aren't we interesting?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

That writer "needs" to learn how to "use" quotation marks properly.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I think it's a pretty well done piece overall. Certainly a more reality-based view of the spoiler phenomenon than the social capital-obsessed one that was posted here a few months back. I do think that repeated use of one particular poster's quotes damages the case for the writer drawing info from observation of fandom at large, though. Surely even within the particular Australian community in question, THE FIRST WEEVIL isn't responsible for 75% of all the pertinent posts on any given topic?

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Gack! No kidding. All those quotation marks were 'distracting' and made me 'annoyed'.

Someone could be studying us RIGHT NOW. Someone say something crappy about Marti, something sickeningly sycophantic about Joss, something crazed about Spike, and misspell everything.

Also, if someone would engage in a drama infused hyperbolic non-sense making hysteria-bomb about feeling marginalized for not seeing the Willow Is On Drugs Anvil followed by Flouncing Off the Board, that would be helpful for the "study."
