Natter 78: I might need to watch some Buffy for inspiration

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I mean, we *are* posting on a board that started as a fanboard for a TV show with 7 seasons (and a spinoff with 5 seasons). I believe in your ability to commit!

Good point. And diner based SF is absolutely my jam. It’s really just a question of how I’ll fit it into my podcast listening schedule

(Or, you know, porque no los dos?)

That's what I was thinking.

And now I will add the time traveling diner to my list.

ETA: And yay new car! I'm glad we don't need a new car (hi, 2013 Civic!), because that would be a giant financial pain right now, but I do look forward to a rear camera and heated seats one day when feasible.

Our wings are not tired.

Just got back from buying Emmett a car, a new Camry (which is a Hybrid)

Awesome. He really needs to have reliable transportation for work. My son had the Camry hybrid and loved it. I hope the birthday dinner was a complete delight.

My list of to-be-watched is still very long. I tend to choose a series based on how many seasons, as a squishy method of seeing if it was good enough to last. Well and a few things that are new and only one season, but then I have to wait!!, and I am not good with waiting.

It is hard to fathom that we used to have to wait an entire week, or longer, for another single episode. Craziness!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Yessssss!

I'm glad we don't need a new car (hi, 2013 Civic!)

We still have our 2013 Corolla, and I still love it and plan to drive it for a long time.

I do look forward to a rear camera and heated seats

But the 2023 Corolla has those, and they are pretty awesome.

If I drive a car with no rear camera, I feel completely blind, when it wasn't that long ago that I didn't trust them and had to verify by turning around.

I will be happy; I cannot lie. We are lucky in that we only need one car, too. I guess if we'd both had one when we got together, we'd have two, but I didn't, so... I was strictly bus and regional rail woman in Philly by the time we met. And we both work from home (so far) and don't have a ton of external obligations that clash.

There are reunion pictures posted on Facebook, but I can infer no drama from them, damn it.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Well, that was an excruciatingly typical Mets season.

The Reds appreciate the wild card slot, though.

How is Tim doing? Hydration helping?
