Apologies again, but I couldn't stop thinking about this. (It's not like I've got work to do.)
Buff the Magic Slayer
Lives and will not fail
She slays in shadows every night
In a land called Sunnydale.
Noble friends and watchers
Will help whene’er they can
Vamps and demons run away
When Buff takes stake in hand.
A vampire lives forever
No so with Slayers all.
Scoobies’ things and Cladaugh rings
won’t return again this fall.
One sad night it happened
Buffy Summers left for good
And Buffistas everywhere
Mourned 'round their neighborhoods.
Oh, Buff the Magic Slayer
Lives and will not fail
She slays in shadows every night
In a land called Sunnydale.
justkim!
damnit. sniffle.
This was the part that really got me:
A vampire lives forever
Not so with Slayers all.
justkim put the nail in my coffin.
tina f. - I'm glad you delurked (hi to your lurky friend, too). Do you also watch Angel? Did you watch Firefly?
Oh my goodness, it is lovely...
The Salon article is not spoilery. There will be a review tomorrow.
It only really hit me yesterday. I downloaded "Chosen" and just couldn't watch it yet.
When they start airing something else on Tuesdays at 8? That's gonna be a shock to the system.
I've been watching this show since S1. I can remember thinking in S2, wow, the show's doing OK, maybe it'll run as long as seven years! And trying to imagine the me who'd still be watching it. And here I am.
Well, justkim just broke me.
I'm very new to Buffistas, only discovering it this year somehow even though I've been watching Buffy since its first season. Just wanted to say how much I've enjoyed reading the posts. The laughs, the tears, making me look at things in a different way, the debates - it all gives me a happy.
All right. Gotta hit the liquor store. Won't be watching and posting, those of you who do, enjoy.
Love and soft hankies to all my Buffistas.
Is anyone watching and posting at all? Steph is at her mom's and DX, who usually does is at the Somervilistas.
Winnow, hear hear. I was also a late bloomer to the land o' Buffistas, and I only wish I had found it all sooner. This is so sad, I feel like my generation is getting pushed out the door...I lost Dawson last week too, I was with that from the beginning as well, even when it sucked a whole lot.
I got real teared up today, I was in the grocery store and so many magazines have tributes to BtVS, the actors, etc. It's just. so. sad. I can't contain myself, I'm going to be bawling.
Buffistas, you rock.
