Giles! I accidentally killed Spike. That's okay, right?

Buffy ,'Never Leave Me'


LotR - The Return of the King: "We named the *dog* 'Strider'".  

Frodo: Please, what does it always mean, this... this "Aragorn"? Elrond: That's his name. Aragorn, son of Arathorn. Aragorn: I like "Strider." Elrond: We named the *dog* "Strider".

A discussion of Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King. If you're a pervy hobbit fancier, this is the place for you.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I bet you're going to insist he's not schizophrenic either, huh?

He's not. The "divided self" of schizophrenia doesn't refer to the multiple personalities he exhibits. Of course, Smeagol has a lot of problems.

flips open DSM

Addictive Personality Disorder
Sociopathy
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder...

Good god. I should read the thread before I jump to the end to post what someone else posted only a few posts back. Durr.

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

He's not.

Since when are you going to close the tag on straight men?

This is one of the instances where I differentiate between being and doing.

DavidS-How scared am I that I'm not the only one with a DSM close by?

Thanks for the accurate diagnosis. I'm forever explaining the diff between people with schizophrenia and MPD. We can thank bad movies for that!

Wow. Speaking of bad movies, the imdb description of "Tracker" made me want to stick something sharp (and hot) in my eye. Oy!

Fortunately, I haven't owned a tv in nearly 7 years, so I'm spared the inadvertant stumble into such scarring material. I feel for them who've seen it.

That's ANOTHER thing I wonder about...who is it who sits in a pitch meeting hearing someone describe something like that, and then says, "Great idea!" That can't really happen, can it?

Then again, I thought Quantum Leap was a dopey idea and look what happened there...huge success and about a thousand rip-offs.

What do [b]I[/b] know?

How have you kept up with Buffy, et al., then?
