I am a freak because I rate The Prom higher than either half of Graduation Day

Then you are my Freak Sistah!

Smonster: "You wanna make it right? Then when you go to Nationals... bring it. Don't slack off because you feel sorry for us. That way, when we beat you, we'll know it's because we're better. "

Samantha will seek out buffistas in "Cali." Samantha is most anxious about being that far from Boston and New York and Providence and coffee milk and all things good, gritty, locally cultured, and corrupt. But, SF is a nice town and LA has its offerings. Samantha is excited, loking forward to the change. Samantha is embracing California: Samantha bought new car.

Ahem.

Oh Buffy gal, the end, the end is coming
From set to set, and downloads far and wide
The season's gone, and all your fans are crying
'Twas you, 'twas you, without you we must bide.
But come ye back in reruns of the show
When we'll even watch those few eps that blow 
Like As You Were, Beer Bad, Sprial, and Shadow
Oh Buffy gal, oh Buffy gal, We love you so.


On Tuesday nights, when there is nobody slaying
And threads dead, as dead as dead can be
We'll miss you more and more, without you playing
Except for in our fading memories
Of Oz and Will, an' Xander, Giles, and Cordy
And Tara too, and Dawn, and Spike (not Riley)
Faith, Andrew, Anya, Joyce, Snyder, and monkeys
Thank you for seven years of gracing our TVs
Thank you for seven years of gracing our TVs

That is all.

Oh, and smonster remember: Awesome, oh wow! Like, totally freak me out! I mean, right on!

oh buffy gal

broke

that's just beautiful

have a single tear rolling down my cheek

• Sobs* Beautiful rendition, truly. Fuck that Riley bastard. He's the anglish to the cast's Irish.

Mooooooommmmmmmmm! Plei's making us cry.

So, this morning while I was getting ready for work, I suddenly thought that I should watch Becoming -- given the limited time, I decided to just watch the 2nd half.

So good.

I think somebody last week mentioned a parallel between the Guardian telling Buffy that Axcaliber was only another weapon and Angelus taunting Buffy at the end of Becoming:

That's everything, huh? No weapons, no friends.

No hope. Take all that away and what's left?

So incomplete - - I meant to say, I think they've got something. I hope that they do.

I might as well do this now. I was going to wait til about a quarter 'til 8.

(With apologies to John Denver's Leaving on a Jet Plane by way of Peter, Paul and Mary)

Leavin' the Buffyverse

VCRs are programmed - ready to go
It almost 8 o'clock, you know
We've one more hour, then we say goodbye
And now Dawn's in trouble, it's Tuesday night
Let's pray Joss does Buffy's send-off right
Already I'm so lonesome I could cry.

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me you'll stay on TV
Slay me like you've never slain before.
I'm leavin' the Buffyverse
I don't know when I have felt much worse
Oh, Buff, I hate to go.

There weren't many times you let me down
Despite the retcon run-arounds
I tell you now, they don't mean a thing
Every time I post, I'll think of you
Every last fanwank, I'll wank for you.
If you come back, I'll make Whedon my king.

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me you'll stay on TV
Slay me like you've never slain before.
I'm leavin' the Buffyverse
I don't know when I have felt much worse
Oh, Buff, I hate to go.

Now I'll say goodbye to Willow
Xander you're my heart you know
My dear sweet Giles, how I wish you'd stay.
Spike, look at how far you've come
And Faith my dear you've really grown
Buff, without you, who will save the day?

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me you'll stay on TV
Slay me like you've never slain before.
I'm leavin' the Buffyverse
I don't know when I have felt much worse
Oh, Buff, I hate to go.

I think I must be allergic to Plei's posts (on edit: and Cindy's too) today. Damn allergies.
