    Buffy

    Love Buffy. Ive got all 7 seasons on dvd (for less than $200 too!) I liked most seasons equally, except 4 (was that the riley/adam/initiative season?), which was just terrible. 2 and 6 were my favs i think. Fav episodes would have to be becoming part 1 and 2. And of course once more with...

    The Woolworths Thread

    Any other Big Wers around? I want to know when we get our new shirts. They look great on girls, but terrible on guys. The young guys seem to be able to pull them off, but the look weird on older men because they look kinda gay...
