There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
Youse guys probably already did this, but I will still recommend Perdido Street Station.

Well, babe, we only have your word that it is. And you're biased. Wouldn't want to get in "contrapment"

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
