Right. Piano. Because that's what we used to kill that big demon that one time. No, wait. That was a rocket launcher.

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

The best way to do that sort of searching is to threadsuck and search that way.

She starts to go off rails in Buffy 3 around post #6282. But I'm sure she's crazy in other places around that time--April 15, 2003. She was even wacky on People's Forum.

Blast from the past.

Now I'm trying to track down when I first joined the board, but I'm not sure which thread I first posted in.

Found it. January 21st, 2003. And Alibelle (SO totally not a real person, don't listen to her) was the first person to say hi to me. Ha!

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

Man, remember our long outage and Zoe invading People's Forum where the old backup site used to be?

That was nucking futz.

(Also, happened while I was on the road trip to the LA F2F, IIRC.)

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

It was both discomfiting and comforting to realise that one of my ex-roommates knew Zoe and she was weird in real life too. So it's not like we were being pranked. That's just how she was.

Then again, my craziest (she lived in the Antarctic to pretend she was on Mars) ex-roommate knew Zoe. Huh.

I've been poking at the web logs, and it appears that we get a steady trickle of traffic from tvtropes.org ALL THE TIME.

Oh. Oops.

More analysis to come. Definitely a light spike in IO9 visitors today, but nothing huge.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Wow, y'all. I just skimmed through 500+ posts because I had to find out what could inspire 500 posts in one day. I thought it must have been Gus, I should have known better. It was the booze stories.

Still, so glad I read it all just to see this:

Cause, Grace? Coming home this May!

WOO!! to the HOO! Go Gracie!

It's gonna be such an amazing change for all of you.

And msbelle, I am so sorry. What a grrrr.

That was an incredible night of skating.

(Although I'm afraid that Carmen must join "Love Story", Phantom, and "The Impossible Dream" on the "Be Original Already" list.

Yay Grace!
