Hey everyone! I'm new here, as you guys can obviously tell. I'm a huge Whedon fan, though I'm a relatively new one. I started watching BTVS when I caught an 'Angel' rerun on TV early one morning (I saw Cordy and heard Doyle's accent and I was hooked!) a few months ago. I fell in love with the show, though I didn't start watching Buffy until after seeing all the raving reviews of it on TvTropes (which I lurk obsessively). Now I own all the DVDs (though, sadly, I haven't gotten around to getting the comics...)! I've lurked this board for a few weeks now, and it seems really, well, awesome! And that is the conclusion of my introduction thread.

Hey, thanks Evilwillowrocker! Well, now I feel special. So, double thanks! A Watcher sounds interesting. I would've asked what a Watcher was, but instead of being lazy (as usual), I checked the thread out myself. Great idea! Thanks! It spoke to me. Yeah, I was thinking about getting a banner. I'm not exactly what you'd call a photoshop whiz, so I might request something later today...

Well, I do love destruction! ;D My favorite Buffy characters have to be Xander, Buffy herself, and Tara. My favorite Angel characters are Cordy, Doyle, and Illyria. From Firefly, it's Wash, hands down! And I love everybody from Dr. Horrible... (I, sadly, haven't caught up with Dollhouse; I'm gonna get the DVD though!) Gosh, you guys have everything here, don't you? Well, tutorials would be nice, though it'll have to wait for when I have more time. But thanks for the offer! I feel all cozy in here already!

Yes, I have certainly noticed your epic smileys! I love Xander! Although, he has a few moments which make me go 'What was going on in HIS mind?' (such as the whole 'kick his ass' thing, and his attitude in 'Revelations'). Generally, I love his character, and enjoy him fully, flaws and 'wtf' moments in all. Dr. Horrible was great! Especially since it was the only Whedonverse project that I watched without spoilers (besides Dollhouse, which I haven't gotten to yet--what can I say, I'm a spoiler junkie!). I haven't watched Dollhouse because, well, I'm terrible with catching TV shows on the actual TV! Oh, and I live in the US. Beware of the Disappearing Sad Smiley! It has been reinforcing optimistic-ness since 2007!

I thought so, too. I mean, I understand why he was so, erm, jerk-like in those two moments (more in 'Revelations', though), but I still didn't like it. Either way, it just added another layer to the onion-like being that is Xander Harris (and I mean that in the bestest way possible)! Oh, well, I didn't know Amy was on it! Guess I'm seriously behind on my Whedon news! And yes, that it does. (By the way, how do you do that? )

Aww, don't worry, everybody lets a spoiler out one way or another! I've talked about Buffy so much to a sister, and now she can probably summarize every season! Oh, cool! Now people will have a choice when I spoiler them! And because I want to return the favor; who are your favorite characters?

I'm kinda glad I never caught Buffy on when it was airing. Because, well, I would've been, like, what, one? Yeah, I was around one when it first aired. Anyways, I really wouldn't have gotten it--if were to watch it two years ago, it'd just be some show about a girl who slays vampires (and occasionally dates them). Oh, and don't worry, that totally makes sense! I love Willow, though sometimes she irritates me, which is why I prefer the other main three to her most of the time. And I don't exactly HATE Dawn... Sure, she's whiny, but isn't that the point? I really think it's Michelle that saves Dawn from eternal Scrappy-dom. The character's annoying, but the girl can still act! (And I just realized, that if you include the movie, the Whedonverse is older than me! I feel young!)

Late to the party, but howdy. Hmm... Milwaukee, WI... it's been about 2 years since I left it... and I still miss the frigid weather at times.

I have a love/hate relationship with Milwaukee's weather. Sometimes I love it and appreciate it, and sometimes I wish I could relocate to Florida with my cousins!

I've got one word for you: Hurricanes! Hazard of living down here... I miss snow... haven't seen real snow since I left Milwaukee, and quite frankly, I kinda liked the disgustingly cold winters. Down here in South Texas, it rarely ever drops below the 50s, even in winter.
