Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Um. Holy shit. I don't think this was linked before. Googling for Gus Raley quickly got me this comment:
Feb 7, 23:15 by Gus Raley An extensive collection of speculative fiction tropes is available among the other 5000 or so tropes cataloged by the TV Tropes fanatics. Worth a peek.
The article is from Feb. 2007. [link]
At some point, I assumed Gus drinks a fair amount. Holds it well, but tends to post & ramble.
Okay, I've read the last 500 posts now. I've always been fascinated by Gus - I guess because I never had an inkling that he was a fake and this is a board where we mostly know each other.
I would *so* love for TAL to do a story on this. It's exactly the sort of weird story they do. On that note, if anyone does go looking for Gus in Cameron or Eau Claire, take a tape recorder!
To me, I just want to know who Gus was. I *know* he's a liar, but I want to know who was the person typing at the keyboard and what was their motivation behind it all. Again, perfect TAL story, I think.
But seriously, does anybody else remember Gus saying he had MS? That's the part of the io9 article that's eating at me right now (aside from the link back to us).
Ley ray guts?
It's snaining down big yucky slushy flakes by my office. DO NOT WANT.
In defense of the anti-proliferationista movement, it made a LOT more sense to be anti-Natter back when BtVS was still on the air.
B'crazy started on WX as the TT Status thread. Then it got Nattery and someone created Natter to keep B'crazy bueauracalicious. Then when TT came back online BHP started the first "real" Natter thread over there and most of us grudgingly admitted we liked it.
I thought he had some weird monkey bite disease. MS doesn't ring any bells.

Ha! I just found that myself!

No. Monkey bite & ensuing vague neurological symptoms only.
I feel like "Guy Straley" must anagram to something. Maybe if we add a "Marvolo" in the middle.
P-C wins the internets today.
