How often do you change your bio?
How do you use tags? No, this one's not you personally. I really don't get how to use them or what they're for.
How do you get to your journal—is it in your favorites? Is the link there your “recent entries” page, your user page, or your “my lj” page, or what?
Why do you have yourself friended?
Do you ever have trouble finding the button to click to add someone’s post to your memories?
How often do you check your flist to see if someone’s added you?
Do you feel it’s impolite to have long conversations with someone on someone else’s journal?
Do you get annoyed when someone makes a comment just to correct a grammatical error, or makes a comment that’s only one word, or seems pointless to you?
How do you spell the gerund form of rec and beta?

General fandom

What did they use to put the tattoo on David Boreanaz’s back? Do you think they worried about getting it in the same place every time? And who gets the job of applying it, anyway?
Did David Boreanaz ever have a back double?
How tall is Nicholas Brendon? Okay now, how tall is he for real?
Am I the only slathering B/A fangirl who doesn’t think much of the episode IWRY?
Are there any fics out there about Anne (formerly Lily, formerly Chantarelle)?
Did anyone besides me really love Kate Lockley?
What DVD commentary do you like the best?
What’s J. Augest Richards doing these days? Alexis Denisof?

Joss Whedon

Why do some people hate Joss Whedon?
Whatever happened to the Ripper spin off?
Is there even the remote possibility of a Faith spin-off?
Is there even the remote possibility of the cartoon?
Did Serenity make enough money, or not?
I want someone explain comic books to me. I was really into X-men comics in preteen years, but one of the reasons I kind of dropped it was because I got confused (also, I got too tall to be comfortable sexing up with Wolverine and realized I would never have boobs like Rogue's. When you're 11, you still want boobs like Rogue's, even though you figure out by 12 NO ONE has boobs like Rogue's. Or even wants boobs like Rogue's, because ugh, back pain). There seemed to be so many different series all going on at once; I couldn't keep them straight. I didn't get the difference between Uncanny, Astonishing, and Amazing. Isn't there like . . . a diagram for these things?

Oh, I do too (I'm one of those crazies who likes S7 Buffy), but I think it's a well-written essay, and hey, it's a B/A shipper who doesn't like IWRY.

True, it's good to know I'm not the only one.

And you like S7? Honey, you are crazy! ;o)

Hey, I don't like all of S7--I'm not that crazy :) But I like the first half of the season a lot, and constant speeches aside, I like Buffy during that season. I think that for someone beginning to pull herself out of intense depression and getting over a (mutually) abusive relationship and trying to keep herself, her friends, and an army of whiny teenagers alive and save the world, all with a house full of debt and the probably-measly salary a guidance councelor gets? She did pretty well that year.

. . . aaaand I'm getting off my soapbox now. Sorry about that :)

Oh, well, if you put it that way . . .

I like the first half of S7 too. Not in a love way but in a hey this isn't bad way. And I always like Buffy. Sometimes she's selfish ("Sanctuary"), sometimes she's repressed (treatment of Riley in S5), sometimes she needs to get over herself (S6), but I love her right up to the very end. What I particularly like about her in S7 is her treatment of Spike. If she didn't want to give him a chance after he got a soul, I would think her a hypocrite of the worst kind.

But that's probably a whole 'nother issue and you're off your soapbox so I'm going to get off mine ;o)
