"Just sitting here watching our barren lives pass us by...

[lettered]

Oh, look, a cockroach."

Can we do that thing where you give me a subject and I list TOP 5? Please? Because I'm bored, and needs should definitely be met. As long as it doesn't require ointments the next day.

top 5 favorite birds

Hey! I already knew mine, or I wouldn't have asked.
-herons
-egrets (both herons and egrets frequent our neighborhood byous. And I will always associate egrets with my one of my favorite books from when I was 13 or so, because there were egrets on the cover.)
-seagulls (okay, they're annoying. But 1. my grandfather loves to feed them his chubs, and I have such lovely memories of him feeding them and my granny and him discussing their bullying ways, 2. the book Johnathan Livingston Seagull. I have a seagull necklace, even. I just like 'em.)
-sandpipers. They're very common around here, and they run really really fast instead of flying.
-sparrows. (I love the ones that appear in the book A Little Princess--all my favorite birds have to do with books, it seems--and they're really fun to make metaphors out of.)

top 5 favorite foods
-dark chocolate chip dried cherry walnut oatmeal cookies (everything cookies, for short)
-my mommy's homecooked pizza
-lamb tikka masala with rice and the onion thing from that place in Norwich I can't go to any more because I'm not in the UK
-sausage balls
-Houston's (the restaurant) spinach dip

top 5 favorite BtVS episodes

-Prophecy Girl (that's when I knew I was in love with this show)
-Passions (I loved it when he killed Jenny. I wanted Angelus evil evil evil because that makes Angel that much more of an interesting and strong person, imo)
-The Wish (for exactly the reason you said on yours. Cordy does NOT die in eps like that. Also, Wishverse!Buffy is bloody brilliant. I love Buffy so, so much, and to see her like that tore me apart. Plus, the slo mo at the end kills me every time)
-Hush (goes without saying, really)
-Once More With Feeling (I can't believe they pulled it off)

Thank you for embarking with us into this realm of entertainment and imagination. You will be recieving this cute, peaceful bunny for your efforts.

That bunny looks like an assasin bunny to me. Peaceful, my ass.

I love those five eps also. I don't normally list Joss' gimmic eps as a fav even though I think they're brilliant, because I want to go with what the show normally did.

Still, Hush is the only ep that scared me.

Run away! Run away!

One of the things I like about Whedon is he does gimmick eps so well. Other shows have 'specials' and they're almost always lame. BtVS's weren't.

I have a friend who I'm trying to convince to watch BtVS and AtS. She says she watched one ep of BtVS and it scared her silly, so she never watched again. I said that was strange, because only one ep of BtVS ever really scared me. She said it was the ep where everything was silent and those creepy guys ripped out your heart. Figures!
