Maybe it was only regional. La changed theirs, uhm, maybe 9 years ago.
Xander: I still don't get why we came here to get info about a killer snot monster. Giles: Because it's a killer snot monster from outer space. I did not say that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Okay, but really, what the hell is a package store?

Where you go and buy packaged liquor as opposed to a wholesaler or buying it in a resturaunt or bar, or getting a daquiri from a daquiri place.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
So-- it is a liquor store in Northern parlance? And there are daiquari places!?!

They look like slurpee machines, just sitting there.
I thought I was buying a slurpee, but I didn't give it back when I realised my mistake.
Hell, there are daquiri places in the movie theatres.

Wow! I feel like a wide-eyed innocent.... but I don't think they have them here. We have a Martini Bar.

They have them in the malls, even. Louisiana's different about alcohol. I don't think they have a law against open containers of alcohol in the car, either.

We had to have a piece of scotch tape over the straw opening in the daquiri lid to comply with the open container law. We've got drive through liqour and daquiri stores. I really miss those.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Not to change the subject, but quick question -- someone's tagline made me wonder: was Anya's last word (at least onscreen, which is all we have to go by) "bunnies"?
Yup. Even in the script:
INT. SUNNYDALE HIGH SCHOOL - NORTH HALL - DAY
Andrew and Anya, also in wait mode.
ANDREW
I think they're coming...
ANYA
Oh God. I'm terrified. I didn't
think... I just figured you would be
terrified and I would be sarcastic
about it.
ANDREW (also shit-scared)
Picture happy things. A lake. Candy
canes. Bunnies.
Anya's eyes narrow.
ANYA
Bunnies. Floppy, hoppy, bunnies.
Her sword comes up, all of her fear gone.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
But the other posted lines make it pretty clear, to me, that she didn't know Dawn would use it as a roadmap.
Then why hide that she pulled the book from Tara? Did she ever admit to doing this, or do we file it with Xander's lie?
As for intending solace, I think this is akin to giving a recovering alcoholic a beer making kit so he can have a hobby. "Didn't think he'd go out and get the ingredients to make the beer, I figured he'd just want to know about all teh stuff that goes into building his own brewery."
Blargh.
Willow can be an irresponsible asswipe, just like the rest of em. And it's always worse when hidden behind the doe-eyed, "but i didn't KNOW, i was just trying to HELP!"
Feh. It makes her a more interesting character, at least. Still want to shove her in a locker and give her a wedgie.
