good stuff
Feb. 11th, 2003 04:23 pmThere's this very funny mocking of The Matrix and Livejournal to be found here. I don't know the people talked about, but the parody hella amused me anyway.
This is a hilarious post by my :Igor voice: hehhhhh....massssssterrrrrhhh, Ultimate Drew, on the Buffy Bronze Beta (see here).

Hey gang,
Can’t stay and talk, so save your “Sweet Drew Goddard, I bow at your knee and worship your every move-s” for another time. Just wanted to do a quick drive-by because I’ve been thinking about it and I’ve decided that spoilers are bad.
Now, I know I’m not saying anything new here. I’m realistic. Let’s face it – those of you who read spoilers aren’t going to stop just because I tell you not to. So I’ve decided to come here and make you all an offer. Here it is:
Anyone who can remain spoiler-free for the rest of the season – all the way through the finale – will be immediately and passionately French-kissed by me.
That’s right – I will French-kiss anyone, woman or man, who can avoid spoilers for the rest of the year.
Ho ho. How does that sound? May want to think twice before clicking on your spoilerslayers or your cross-and-stakes or your whatevers now, won’t you?
I mean, ol’ U. D. is gonna French-kiss the hell out of you if you’re good. That’s a sweet deal. I mean, it’s just five months, spoiler-free…
And seriously, I’m an awesome Frencher. And for the rest of your life, you’ll be able to tell everyone we Frenched.
Nice.
Now, I know I’ve been off the radar for a while, but they’ve been working us hard here in the coal-mines, so please forgive me. As soon as I’m done working on this script, which should be next week sometime, I’ll be back for a good round of Hose Down the Slip-and-Slide (what the hell does that even mean? Sorry – it’s late.)
But in the meantime, the offer’s on the table. Hey – if you want to look at spoilers now, it’s up to you, but man, you’re gonna be missing out.
To my Minions, well, I love and treasure you all. I honestly don’t tell you that enough. You know… come to think of it… I don’t give you enough free stuff either. In fact, let’s have some sort of contest. Dachelle, do you want to judge a contest for me? I’m thinking a “Praise Goddard” Contest. The rules are as such: the object of the contest is to praise me in the best way possible. Entries can be in the form of a song, a poem, a sculpture, a t-shirt, a painting, an interpretative dance… really, the sky’s the limit on this, okay? Whatever the hell you can think of. Top three entries get a bunch of cool Buffy stuff.
We’ll figure out the logistics of it all next week (Dachelle, I’m gonna get a hold of you next week anyway – sorry it’s taken me so long.) But in the meantime, start thinking of those entries.
I like this contest. It celebrates the very spirit upon which this group was founded in the first place – praise and worship of me. Ol’ U.D.
And don’t forget about that French-kiss deal, either. How ‘bout that? Tonight’s turning out to be real sweet for everyone involved. Real sweet, I tell you.
Don’t doubt the clout.

:giggle: Now can you all see why I'm a minion? Because he's funny. And his Buffy episodes are the best.

Date: 2003-02-11 05:22 pm (UTC)I'm a good minion. I'm spoiler free. Do I get a kiss, I wonder? HMmmmmm.
I suppose I'd have to go to LA to get it.
Also feelin' the Drew love... :-D

Re:
Date: 2003-02-11 05:31 pm (UTC)I was wondering that too, being a fellow spoiler-free-babe that I am. Then I got to wondering what he looked like (though I've got the overwheleming impression from the Minions website and the stuff he writes that he's fairly youngish... he has that whole fan-boy/girl thing going on that you can recognize.)
I suppose I'd have to go to LA to get it.
Hm.... you're probably right. That'd be funny conversation:
"Mom? I'm going to drive down to LA using your gas money so that I can get frenched by a guy from the writing staff of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.--- No, I don't know how old he is, and I'm really only taking it on internet rumor that he's acutally a "he", as the name is androgynous... what? No, I'm doing this because I wnet psoiler free for months, and this is how he rewards his minions... no, I haven't gotten any other rewards..."

Date: 2003-02-11 05:45 pm (UTC)From what I can tell there's no pics on the web... he's quoted as still wanting to go to a grocery store w/o his minions worshiping him.
No, I don't know how old he is, and I'm really only taking it on internet rumor that he's acutally a "he"
LOL. I do think he's a he... I mean, isn't he?
Ah, I think my Mom would understand. Sorta. Um.. maybe not.
But if it were Andy Hallett. She'd be right behind me in line!
Now, I'm wondering just how many minions are going spoiler free... and how many are going to be in that line.
Mmmmmmm.
:-D

Date: 2003-02-12 01:37 am (UTC)Hell, I'm married. I'll take any excuse to kiss someone whose face I don't see 24-7.
Okay, that sounded bad. How 'bout, variety is the spice of life and my food's been all bland and I want some "legally sanctioned" spice? Still sounds bad. But serious, the Husband would freak, and rightly so, if I frenched some guy in a bar. But a Buffy writer, in particular, this Buffy writer? He could never even squeak a "but.... but.... wife!".
Rambling. Sorry. I hope he's a guy, and a young guy, and a cute young guy, and that someday you really do meet him so you can take him up on it.
