But I understand. You gave up everything you had to find me. And you found me broken. It's hard for you.

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

I think because we mean Angel/Firefly. Wesley/Jayne deathmatch on planet babyoil, baby.

Well, that's okay, then.

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

I think it was probably an oversight that Jon can easily correct.

What about the grandfather clause?

Hands one back to Cindy, raises glass to her.

We have our 1000th registration. And I am morally opposed to serial commas.

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

Serial commas ... I can see the problem.

But I think the suggestion was for an Oxford comma, which is a whole 'nother vibe.

There is no reason other than blind prejudice not to use serial commas. On the other hand, there are plenty of situations in which they are absolutely necessary for a sentence to make sense, so one might as well be consistent and use them all the time.
