 Resident Slayer   | Buffy's Asterisk Old timer's know this, but its caused some confusion recently so I'll bump this to clarify it. The Buffy enjoys obscure pop culture references. When you see a "  " icon--AKA "Buffy's Asterisk"--next to one of The Buffy's sign-offs, its an indicator that The Buffy did not come up with it but rather that it is a quote from a--usually obscure--source not of The Buffy. The Buffy does not provide a direct reference to it, because half the fun is in finding out where it came from.Through the miracle of the Internet, Googling the phrase can often conjure the source up, but unfortunately The Buffy is old enough so that some quotes can't be found this way, and you'll have to ask your grandparents where it may have come from... Gosh I never knew how much fun it was to refer to one's self in the third person! I think I'll stop now though, I'm getting dizzy...  No one has a franchise on the truth, not even you Senator, Buffy ---------------- "If you do not agree with anything I say, I'll not only retract it, but deny under oath that I ever said it!" __________________________________________________ ______________-- Tom Lehrer "The shrinks diagnosed me a sociopath with paranoid delusions.

| Resident Slayer |  Re: "Oh *that's* obscure, B!" Wow! I got a question already.... The quality is totally sucky, but here's the reference....it is basically impossible to get unless you watch a lot of TV right now in the US...

 Hypo Contributer Sponsor |  Re: "Oh *that's* obscure, B!" She's Back, She's Back, Oh great slayer it's so good to have you back.  ---------------- There are many things to be shared with the Four Colors of humanity in our common destiny as one with our Mother the Earth. It is this sharing that must be considered with great care by the Elders and the medicine people who carry the Sacred Trusts, so that no harm may come to people through ignorance and misuse of these powerful forces. Resolution of the Fifth Annual Meetings of the Traditional Elders Circle, 1980 | |
