I AM 36% GEEK!
36% GEEK
You probably work in computers, or a history deptartment at a college. You never really fit in with the "normal" crowd. But you have friends, and this is a good thing.
I got the rest of your discs today. I wasn't expecting all those extras! I especially loved the convention clips with Michael, the interviews with James and Michael (I'd been wanting to see James getting his head shaved), and the behind the scenes specials.

And I never thought I'd get to see Chance so cannot wait to sit down and watch that at some point. Oh and LMAO at the Sorority Girls music video! In fact all the music videos were great.


Oh and TWoP pity results are in

Lex was third favorite character. And apparently Smallville was voted show with the most Hoyay by a huge margin. We didn't fare so well at the krypton site awards though. Clana won best couple with 38% of the vote. We beat Chlark though. They got 1005 votes and Clark and Lex got 1036.

And there's an Oasis video for Clex here

Nirvana1 got an e-mail from someone letting her know what's going on at the havenites SHU.



Jerusalem: It is SPIKE I hate, and not James.

But then, see, I'm sane.

I'm not a crazy fucking psycho.

*I* don't make obscene action figures.

*I* don't drool over outtakes which I'm sure were very hard and embarrassing for the actors that were in them.

*I* don't paint pictures of ducks on walls and then knock them down.

*I* am not a fan of rape.

*I* do not go out, get locks of hair from an actor, and PIN THEM TO MY PHSYCICAL BODY.

And *I* am not some sort of cult leader or prophet who controls the minds of my followers with, I admit, well worded but exceedingly idiotic posts.

I enjoy the shows for what they are, fiction.

When YOU people talk about the Buffyverse, you bash the actors.

You sit there and say shit like, "SMG and JM should have gotten together, because that would be sooooo hawt! *squeeeee*"

You sit there and think that the entire universe is real and revolves around Spike.

Even when all evidence, ALL evidence points to the contrary (SMG's comments, JM's comments, Espoison's comments, Shithead's comments) you refuse to see it.

It's the Spuffy logic.

A. It's canon as long as it's what you want to hear.

B. If it goes against your beloved Spikeywikey, it doesn't exist.

C. If someone says something other than what you want to believe, that person sux0rs and must be flamed and emailed and called nasty names because they obviously don't know about the flamey hands of luuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurve.

See, the problem I think that we have when we try to deal with people like you is this. We use logic, facts, and common sense.

Three things that you people completely lack.

You hold onto Joss' Chosen commentary like a leotard clings to a fat woman

You people go out and flame a book, that many of you have never even read because of the fact that your precious Spikey isn't at the forefront of every page. You flame it because it's completely within canon of the shows, just not in your own personal canon where you and Spike have sex 18 times a day and rape is kewl.

And all this shit with the Watcher's Guide 3. I want you people to realize something.

The Watcher's Guide is the OFFICIAL guidebook to the Buffyverse.

It was approved by Mutant Enemy.

It was approved by Fox.

It was approved by Joss.

I mean come on. You name your board "Cold Dead Seed". How the fuck can you expect ANYONE to take you seriously?

You're the lunatic fringe. You really are. Every group, from tv fans to politicions to religions has it's extremists who do their best to make the group as a whole look bad.

That'd be you.

Buffy. Is. In. Love. With. Angel. Period end of sentence.

The simple fact is, that in CANON (ie, the official view of the show), Buffy is in love with Angel. That's the end of it.

You can point to TGIQ. You can sit there and say "But Andrew said....", but come on. You're going to take the word of Andrew? ANDREW?

You know what Andrew's purpose is on the show?

He's a Mary Sue. He's the Spiker. He's the physical embodiement of you out there. He's the guy who drools over Spike. He's the guy who does whatever he can to make sure that in the end, Spike's the one who comes out on top. Andrew is YOU. Andrew is you and the Wet Panty Brigade writers given character form.

When it comes right down to it, I don't hate you because you're Spuffers. I don't hate you because you like Spike. I don't hate you because of an ideological difference.

I hate you because you are a group of mentally unstable, vicious, vile, hate-filled, insane extremeists. I hate you because you are hypocrites. I hate you because when I listen to you speak, I literally become afraid for the people around you. When I think of the things that you people have done, I literally fear for your families. I fear for your friends. I am afraid of how any impressionable minds around you will turn out.

Violence begets violence. Insanity breeds insanity. And the simple fact is, you have those two in spades. I could draw comparisons here between this fandom and religious extremeists. Is it an extreme comparison? Yes. But it is valid. And that is why I am afraid for those around you.

You spew your hate, you spew your insults, you spew your rhetoric, you spew your vile. You spew it at actors portraying a role. You spew it at people who have opposing viewpoints. You are nothing more than hate-filled bigots.

Me? I'm a fucking attack dog.

You want to attack them? You want to attack the actors?

You're not even on their level.

They are so far above you that it's not even funny.

But me? I relish it down here in the muck. And the grime. And the filth.

If you come at us, I will own you right in your fucking faces.

Your time is over. Your fifteen minutes are up. You can either go quietly, or you can go with those in charge finding out just how deluded and sick you are.

But if you come at us, if you come at the actors, if you come at the book writers again, I simply have four more words for you:

Arf. Fucking. Arf.

Bitch.





Blade/Daywalker: As usual... you da man. Could not have said it any better myself. The only thing I would have added is about the Sparklies. They're a pretty way out there bunch. For every sane one there are 50 whack jobs over there. They hate me so much I got BANNED from there.*
Obviously they didn't want me keeping an eye on their insane ravings. (But that's ok.. I hear things... some of their friends are not really as friendly as they think )*2 What's scary... they really believe their own bullshit.



ETA I am not a member of the havenite, Nirvana1 was the one that passed the e-mail along and I thought it was too unhinged not to share.
