Sounds like a perfectly reasonable discussion to me. Well, it was the episode board's loss, and I'm glad I found you all, considerably later. I'll have to hunt down the initial discussion one of these days - sounds like it was a hoot.
Frankly, most of your episode-related discussions on the S3 board were more insightful than the episode board ones anyway, so there! ;D Ditto on what Anne said. I started out reading the episode board on Scoopme. I liked it until some started putting down the people who liked spike. When I started reading the misc. board, I stopped looking at the ep board altogether. I was getting what I wanted here

All the posts relating to this pants-size topic were moved off the episode board and onto the ScoopMe misc board by the ScoopMe editors. An occasional ScoopMe reviewer (who shall not be named) referred to us as "Spikettes" and would occasionally (ON THE EP BOARD!) rant about how we were too befuddled by Spike's abs and cheekbones to think straight. Of course, it is true that I am often too befuddled by Spike's abs and cheekbones to think straight . . . but I wait to post until after that has passed. Well . . . maybe not always. But I try to wait. Maybe sometimes I unwisely post about how Spike is all mine or whatever, but hey . . . give a girl a break. I haven't had a real date since I broke up with my ex about 7 months ago . . OH! My ex called me again just last week. God, it is sooooo hard to keep playing the Ice Queen. It would be soooo easy to give in and invite him over on an evening when I have the house to myself . . . but . . . you know why I don't? As Faith (in Buffy) once told Spike: BECAUSE IT'S WRONG! Seriously. It would be. Wrong, I mean. Sigh, sigh, sigh. And sigh again. When I first started to visit the board I only read the main Scoopme board discussion - which was fine. But I think I really got into the board when I started reading the Spike thread because it was so light-hearted and funny as well as insightful. I like a little humor with the serious stuff. And the best humor involves a certain vampire with sexy abs and deep blue eyes. Spring, I'm sorry about your situation with your ex. Is he BPD (borderline personality disorder) by any chance? At least you're not married to him.

Oh, I agree. That essayist is, as Spike would say, "daft"! And a git, tosser, wanker, ponce.......have I missed anything?

Yep, we've embraced everyone. EVEN those who *gasp* like B/A over B/S. Though I'm still waiting on my S'cubie badge. Where is that sucker? Wait, are y'all just withholding mine because of my "crazy" affliction for B/A? Lest I cause any confusion, there is no S'cubie badge (hey, that's an idea though) - I was just trying to be funny. As most of my jokes tend to not go over well, I thought I would post this comment at the end before someone starts emailing Vlad about their S'cubie badge. Thank GOD for that. NO BADGES FOLKS!

It would be wrong because...you don't love him, right? Or because you do but he breaks your heart and you know it? Or...why would it be wrong again? It would be wrong because I don't want to get back together with him and I'm pretty sure that's what he is after. I loved him and I suppose there is a way I always will, and things were still very sizzly between us (which made it all extra difficult to break up and to keep giving him the cold shoulder now). We just aren't right for each other. He drives me up the wall when we're not between the sheets (well, there too, but iin a good way). I am extremely distracted due to my son's illness and a busy work life and other issues (including taking classes there for awhile, earning my MBA), and I had very little time for him, and he - he tried, but he was SUCH an ass overall about my decreased attentions - even though MY SON WAS DEATHLY ILL! I think he may be feeling a lot of remorse for some of his words and actions, but . . . I just haven't got the strength or motivation to try to find out. More than you wanted to know, huh?

I know my pal Rhonda hasn't been posting lately, in part because of ghastly knee surgery that not only hasn't corrected the problem but has made it worse. Anyhoo, she sent me on some e-mail funnies I thought S'cubies might enjoy, to wit: Subject: Chickens Why did the chicken cross the road?

Nan - One word - HILARIOUS!
Here's one:
Why did the chicken cross the road?
GILES: Into each generation a chicken is born, one hen in all the world, a Chosen One, one born with the strength and skill to hunt the chicken hawks.
(thanks to karalee for the chicken hawk suggestion)

JOSS WHEDON: To begin, metaphorically, her journey toward adulthood. It's kind of like, if you're cookie dough, and you put yourself into the oven to bake, only you're a chicken, at a crossroads, instead. You see what I mean?

You didn't get your badge? What about the secret decoder ring? Oh yeah. I got that. It's so cool that we can send secret messages to JM and he can send us messages as well. *slaps forehead* That was supposed to be secret, wasn't it? Hey, look over there! I think that's JM and dang, he looks good naked! *scampers away before anyone can catch her*

Maybe chicken hawks. To protect the entire chicken community. I may watch too much Bugs Bunny. I edited that because my punctuation sucks.
