Wanna go sometime this spring? I've been really feeling the need to get the hell out and get some sun recently. (Not helped by the fact that my sister is on a Panama Canal cruise right now.)
On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It's not sticky and itchy in Jamaica all the time. I know of what I speak.
My god, I just ended up on tvtropes.org (don't ask--sometimes I can't stop myself) reading the page on Buffy tearjerkers and I had to stop because it was making me actually cry. Jaysus. To hell with you, Joss.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Caribbean sounds nice.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I just looked at the forecast for Tuesday night and apparently it's going to snow for 24 hours straight starting about 10pm tomorrow.
Yeah, I could go for a beach in the Caribbean right now.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I remember watching the episode where Buffy's mom died, and I felt horrible for days afterward. It was really well-made, I think, because my uncle (who never watched Buffy before or since, and really hardly watches TV) stopped on it, watched the whole thing, and was very moved. His mother (my grandma) had died a few years before. At its best, Buffy was really universal.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Dangit. Matilda tripped and fell on the surge protector, turning off all the TV/VCR/Tivo/Cable box.
I lost what I was watching on Tivo and it took forever (maybe 2 minutes!) for everything to boot up.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Wanna go sometime this spring?
Hell yeah!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

When I was a kid, it took about a minute for all the vacuum tubes on our TV to heat up before it'd work.

I should have lived in Jamaica. We got about three niceo months and that was it.

Uh-oh. Looks like we're up for some cat-vs. mouse action tonight.
God, what a stupid mouse. It made all this noise (squeaking and rustling stuff about) so any cat withing 100' could hear.
