Can't this care go any faster? 'Cuz I can still see where I am...

As promised, another quote from Buffy that is appropriate to my life. It's from "Once More, With Feeling," the musical episode in Season 6. This is the goodbye that Sweet (the demon forcing people to sing and dance) sings at the end of the episode.

What a lot of fun
You guys have been real swell
And there's not a one who can say
This ended well
All those secrets
You've been concealing
Say you're happy now,
Once more with feeling
Now I gotta run
See you all in hell

I mean, really. Show of hands: who REALLY wants to know what anyone thinks of them?
You only really want to know if it's positive, or at least neutral, right?
And yet.... *sigh* And yet.

Lie to Me

"Does it ever get easy?"
"You mean life? ...What do you want me to say?"
"Lie to me."
"Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true. The bad guys are always easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats. We always beat them and save the day. Nobody ever dies, and everyone lives happily ever after."
"...Liar."

I have come to the conclusion that there is a Buffy the Vampire Slayer quote for every occasion. This one fits my life right about now.
Say what you want, but that show was the awesome when it started, back in '97. It got hokey near the end of its run, but it is definitely quotable.
Perhaps I shall gift you with more quotes from time to time.
