Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

We're Literary 2: To Read Makes Our Speaking English Good  

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."

I agree with the move to the Book Club thread!

I've announced it in Press.

Thanks!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Buy yourself a shoutout.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

That's so cool.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Okay, the buying a shoutout is so very cool.

What is even happening?

It is. But it also kind of makes me want to make an icon that states, "My fandom gets shout outs for free".

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

What about an icon that says "My fandom isn't doing anything about the 1st amendment?"

I mean ... it is for charity, after all. I like my shoutout, and I'm never giving it back, but one that's involved with a good cause is hella cool.

Not that there aren't other fandoms doing charity stuff (hello, Allyson), but still. It's not a mercenary effort, and I think the donation is more important than the mention.

It's nifty to see them together.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ian Rankin does the charity shout-out thing a lot, too.
