To every idea a shelf...

I hate Angel as a character -- my opinion of him is close to Spike's.

Hee! That's it, I have to go watch the 'nancy boy hair gel' speech right now.

I'm still happy as hell that they did it, because I can safely tuck the whole Angel/Cordy thing into my "of course, she infected with EVIL at the time, so it wasn't REALLY Cordy completely changing her character and deciding that she loved Angel" excuse. Brr. Unclean.

Okay, that right there is an excellent reason for me to get over my misgivings - thanks! Blargh. Angel wuvs Cordy is almost single-handedly responsible for my dislike of Season 3. I hereby declare to Trust that this twist, whether long-planned arc or clever save, will take me somewhere exciting and right past wrongs.

And re: white font... I actually thought we were white fonting for you, Leigh, cos you missed it and all. Are you spoiled already? I knew you were for Buffy but I wasn't sure if you were for Angel.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Angel wuvs Cordy is almost single-handedly responsible for my dislike of Season 3.

I'm not certain how I'd have felt about S3 if I wasn't so completely Wes-centric in my viewing.

But S4 made me love the Hairloaf again, so we're all good.

`He combed his hair, Put on a shirt that his mother made, And he went on the air...'

The nancy-boy hair gel speech was the funniest thing ever on either show. Cut right to the heart of Angel's pretensions. Makes me miss the old Spike -- not the totally evil Spike but the one who had enough confidence in himself to shoot his mouth off and damn the consequences.

Are you spoiled already?

Heh. Just a little. (If by 'a little' you mean 'like the 50c spoiler-ho I really am')

I'm just white-fonting everything at the moment because I forget who's seen what!

BTW, Emlah, I'll be coming up to Sydney next week...do you feel like having a drink or something?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I thought we were whitefonting so as to avoid inflicting phrases like Angel/Cordy on unsuspecting readers who'd actually managed to block it out of their memory.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

You know, I highlighted that and as soon as I un-highlighted I forgot it completely.

It's marvelous.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

You know, I highlighted that and as soon as I un-highlighted I forgot it completely.

Wait, are you saying there's some sort of connection between Angel and Cordy ?

Edited because wati is not wait

Soooo, I've discovered that strawberry daiquiris are great for making Angel look extra hot, but Conner remains irredeemably dumb as fuck. I mean I feel for the boy, what the dumb-as-fuck apparently being Daddy-gene, but Damn, he be stupid. And now I shall stop posting while tipsy.

`He combed his hair, Put on a shirt that his mother made, And he went on the air...'

What a sophisticated drinker you are, Leigh. I only ever drink boring old cider like a yokel from the counties.

Just been rewatching Once More With Feeling and appreciating it anew. Initially I was so blown away by all the Spuffy chemistry that I didn't notice other things -- like the sheer wit of the lyrics, Giles's and Tara's wonderful performances. And overall, the verve of the whole show, and its abiding melancholy. So much loss about to come. To have written all the songs and made it all work -- Joss remains the Higher Authority.
