Lorne: My little prince. Oh…what did they do to you? Angel: Nina…tried to…eat me. Lorne: Oh, you're--medic! You're gonna make it Angel. Just don't stop fighting. Doctor! Is there a Gepetto in the house?

Just in case any Aussies missed it, 7 advertised that Angel has now moved to Thursday nights.

Really? I think that's just for Victoria, because I just watched Angel then and they didn't mention that they were changing the timeslot.

Fuck I'm turning into an old sook

Well, it's better than being bitter like me. I found that ep really painful to watch (in the cringe at every second line of dialogue way) and I went to read the past Buffistas discussion and most people liked it. I feel all out of synch. Though I admit that Spike has slightly redeemed himself, if only by being quite outrageously attractive again. I think it's the smirking. I can't resist a good smirker, which might be why I think Calvary was just like porn, but with the added novelty of clothes.

Everyone cried.

Well, I found it rather horrifically ironic because of the whole 'maybe your power is seeing' bit, what with the eye-gouging and all, but other than that my cynical side just distracted me with Dawn's neat hair-do.

Mmmm.... Calvary.

I have no content to add here.

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

Everyone cried.

Not me. I was all cried out from the Amanda fighting scene. But I knew I should cry, which was something.

See, I didn't even pick up on that much. Someone broke my cry-o-meter. t /lame justification I think I only cry when it's dead people and/or a musically manipulative movie. For example, I cried for a solid hour at the end of Titantic.

Oh. The crying gods are just so appalled, they're not letting you cry in the right spots any longer.

I started at the beginning.

"They are all gonna die!" What can I say, I sometimes am like my mom and anticipate and project emotions.

Then I just got progressively more irritated and barely finished the movie. I was dry eyed and unmoved by that point.

They're also messing with my ability to spell, but that's a separate vendetta.

I dunno what it is, but if I know it's going to be sad beforehand then you could grate onions under my nose and I wouldn't shed a tear. Catch me by surprise with mauldin craptastic anything and I'm gone.

Edit: see that, how I mis-spelled maudlin? Exhibit A for my persecution complex.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

I didn't cry for Xander's speech, though I was moved in a non-weepy sort of way.

I always cry during Joy Luck Club and the ending of It's a Wonderful Life. Beyond that it's kinda random.
