I'm with you on that one Pinwiz. Very odd episode in many ways.

Still scratching my head here. Odd. And not in a good way.

It felt kinda final. A last marshalling of evil is underway. And there was a woman at the desk when Buffy tenderly bandaged Wood and talked about the Hellmouth.

They have a destroyed school to explain. They have footage of the principal beating up students.

I liked the degree of meta, I feel like I have company in rolling my eyes at Buffy's speeches, and I truly did not know what she was going to do with Andrew (merely scaring the shit out of him didn't seem to be an efficient use of her time), and Tom Lenk sold a lot of varied stuff to me.

Plus, masturbation.

I don't want to roll my eyes at Buffy! Sigh.

Yes, masturbation can be fun. Love Anya.

I don't want to roll my eyes at Buffy!

I've always had it in me. I've done it before -- I don't need to be 100% with her to enjoy the show. In fact, aside from early S6, I'm not usually synched with her.

Laura, are/were you a fan of Hair?

I used to listen to that with my Mom (she is older than you but loved it) as a kid. Although it used to lead to questions my mom would rather not answer... 'Mom, what is cunnilingus?"

Hair will always hold a special place in my heart. It was the real feeling of joy I experienced when my mother heard the lyrics the first time. I still love shocking Mom. And of course it takes me back to my youth.

In the town where Mom lives there is a fishing store named "Master Bait and Tackle" which never fails to crack me up. I have pictures of myself in front of the sign.

It's "In my plan, we are beltless." Hee.

I so wanted to tag this, too. Very funny episode with a nice twist at the end.

I'm going for connected!

It's all connected.

The students being turned into Bringers really threw me.

Makes sense, though. The new ones have to come from somewhere.

And Kennedy's part of the inner circle again... Fuck. But did you see the quality sash work? That's talent, my man.

That was certainly a quick rebound. And the woodwork was fantastic.

I was more pissed off with the whole "A student just EXPLODED and all you could do is shrug?" thing.

Yeah, that didn't make any sense. I loved Buffy talking down the girl from going blinvisible, though. Maybe what they should have gone with instead of the explosion was having the door open and close by itself.

Elena, in the Bitches thread you said:

Now I'm trying to remember if NS has a censor board

We don't have a "censor" board but we do have an agency that does Film Classification, aka ratings. They are under the alcohol and gaming authority so I picture the film classification people watching porn, drinking a lot of booze and cleaning their shotguns. I may be misguided.

I want a job there!

Though it should be porn, drinkng and gambling. No Guns.
