I prophesize many a drunken buffista by the end of the week. Perhaps we shoud work on a Buffy adaption of an Irish folk tune? Something delightfully mournful.... Oh, Buffy Gal, perhaps?
See the depths of my misery?! I can't type or use good grammar! UGHMAGOD!
One could filk "Buffy Summers" to "Molly Malone," or alter "Danny Boy" to "Slayer Girl."
What about "Paddy's Lament"? That one's nice and woeful. ThoughI don't think an adaptation is possible until later this evening....
Smonster - I am bringing the gin and some 'ludes.
And let's all remember to take a moment.
Okay that made me teary. Also, buying the fixings for my last ever Buffy night special potato at the Fresh Fields last night I got all verklempt. I have a special potato for this show! Oh I'll make it again (maybe it will become Special Angel Potato!) but it won't be the same.
(for potato lovers: I bake it, scoop the insides, mix with blue cheese, mayo, dry mustard, paprika, S & P, put sliced tomatoes on top, and sprinkle it with shredded parm or other sharp, dry Italian cheese. Then pop it back in oven to get bubbly. sniff. it's a beautiful thing. like Buffy.)
Wonder if there is anything in the filk archives?
Did anyone mention that we Canadians had a Buffy marathon on Space yesterday to warm us up for the big event? They showed the top 10 viewer voted episodes from 9 AM to 7pm, ending just as the finale began. It was like Buffy nirvana.
Except for having to sit through OMWF again.
Number!

I was IMing with a Canadian friend of mine, home from work on Victoria Day. It was kind of cool getting little bits of the show, reminders, funny lines.
Although - "Family" was #3? You Canadians are crazy.
Sue, what were the other favorites? Anything that would make this board (generally) sit up and say, "Huh?"
(Edit to respond to xpost -- Other than "Family," that is.)
Madrigal - Your suggestion of adapting Danny Boy is highly appropriate. Been singing to myself te past few minutes. Methinks I have stumbled upon some therapy.
I have a stomache ache and I can't tell if it's from the Spaghetti-O's I ate (don't ask - random craving) or if it's because I'm freaking out and my body knows, but my mind hasn't realized it yet.
