We'll start with this one since others on my flist have already done it.

the that's my favorite! meme
A FANFICTION PRAISE MEME


Then we'll do some Top Five action:


Top Five Favorite Buffy Episodes

1. Passion – I feel like this is really when we get to see how wicked and sadistic Angelus really is.
2. School Hard – the introduction of Spike and Drusilla
3. Band Candy – the sheer campiness and amusement factor makes this an episode I can watch again and again. Plus, I kind of love Ethan Rayne
4. Doppelgangland – I love the character development this episode gave Willow. Plus, the vamp!Willow outfit is just damn hot.
5. Hush – this episode is so powerful in its silence. I think Joss & co. executed it brilliantly.

Top Five Least Favorite Buffy Episodes

1. Go Fish – There’s something about this episode that just falls flat for me. I mean, sure, you can’t really go wrong with Xander in a speedo, but sea monsters? Really, Joss?
2. Listening to Fear – Not a big fan of the extra-terrestrial demon. That said, I think Kristine Sutherland knocked her role out of the park. I love Joyce!
3. Doublemeat Palace – It’s just stupid. Plus, the fast food industry is gross and seeing Buffy and Spike getting it on in an alley made me nauseous.
4. The Killer in Me – I’m not a Kennedy fan to begin with, but this arc was just executed so awfully.
5. Lies My Parents Told Me - This episode makes me so mad at Giles, even more so than Helpless does. I also pretty much hate Robin Wood.





Top Five Favorite School Memories

1.Being told I made a great witch in the play we acted out during third grade.
2.Playing Batman, Robin, and Catwoman on the playground with my best friends Nicholas and Danny during Elementary School.
3.Receiving the literature award at my 8th grade graduation for my accomplishments in reading.
4.Being apart of the creation of the very first Gay-Straight Alliance at my high school.
5.Participating in the Abnormal Psychology experiment that my professor asked us to do for class one day. Our job was to go out onto campus and break a social convention (without breaking any laws.) My friend Becca and I started by holding hands, but ended with us sitting on a bench as I made hissing noises at the men and women who walked by (especially those wearing fraternity/sorority shirts.)



And finally, the day to day Harry Potter Meme:

Kennedy's arrogance is so repellent that I was rooting for Willow to skin her alive.

Ugh, I don't mind the first four episodes you pegged as worst, but I HATE "Lies My Parents Told Me" SO MUCH. I think the worst thing about season seven is how Buffy's relationship with Giles and the other Scoobies totally deteriorates (they KICKED HER OUT when they've been loyal to her for SEVEN YEARS), and it's barely even acknowledged. I mean, why bring Giles back if it's just to make him a jerk?

Arrrrrgh. >:(

Grrrrr...
That episode and the subsequent actions of the Scoobies puts S7 at my least favorite season of Buffy.

I see all your points with the Buffy eps. I don't know what I'd say if I were posed the same question though.

Those are some great memories to have.

I'm not into shipping HP so much though so I'll just let you do it.

As for the first Meme... I'm in the middle of Mission X... it isn't posted in full on NHA and that's where I found it at first so I have some catching up to do... that said... so far I LOVE IT!!! I can't wait to see what happens. I'd be reading now but for some reason I'm having a hard time getting pages to load. I don't even know if this post will go through.

I'm sure I will go through and read more of your stuff as I get to... I've liked what I've read so far.

I'm so glad you're enjoying Mission X. I'm definitely fond of that one.

SCHOOL HARD! Love it so freaking much!

Kennedy is just so...blah.
Lies My Parents Told Me? Really? I'm so in love with Spike beating Wood and Buffy shutting the door in Giles' face!

While I don't disagree with you that those a great moments, I felt like Giles's actions made him a total jerkwad and it felt out of character for me.

I've never been a big Giles fan but I do think that most of his actions toward Spike in S7 were OOC. I expected him to be all "A demon seeks out his soul! Oh dear, I need to document that!" and a bit respect for Spike along with that. *pouts*
