Best Buffy lines ever!
Okay, Veronica Mars rocks. It's great. I bow down to the writers and cast.
But was tonight a little...off?
Still, there was a LOT I loved and any episode that includes Weevil, Mac, Wallace, Logan, and Dick "rich dude Kryptonite" Cassablancas is all right with me.
Any episode that ends with Logan and a baseball bat, a jail cell and revenge, has got a permanent place on my Tivo.
That being said, I'm going to pay homage tonight to another classic: Buffy.
For some reason I've been thinking about Buffy and Company a lot lately. I spent the better part of the morning singing from the Buffy musical, so here we are, the lines that will only make sense to Buffy fans and maybe only to me. But Buffy hasn't been on in a few years, and these lines are fresh on my mind, so there must be something good there.
-- "Bored now."
-- "You're just a girl." "That's what I keep telling everyone" (a line I frequently say out loud when the Gallagher Girls have me stumped.)
--"I'm probably only immune because I'm the slayer."
--"Can I be blind now?' (From Something Blue...remember that one? I'm laughing right now!)
--"The girl likes a little monster in her man."
--"Dawn's in trouble? It must be Tuesday."
--"That Anya, she's newly human and oddly literal."
--"Tomb-kaboom."
--"You're beneath me."
--"Hello! I'm evil!"
--"The only reason you've lasted as long as you have is you've got ties to the world... your mum, your brat kid sister, the Scoobies. They all tie you here but you're just putting off the inevitable. Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second- the second- that happens... You know I'll be there. I'll slip in... have myself a real good day."
(Okay, that one I had to look up.)
--"Got bit"
--"I watched Passions with Spike. We must never speak of it."
--"I think I actually heard him clean his glasses."
--"I spent the better part of my allowance on a new cream rinse that's neither creamy nor rinsey."
Okay, that's why I'm thinking about Buffy lines--I have a cream rinse that's neither creamy nor rinsey. And I begin each day by remembering that line.
Now your turn.
What are your favorite lines from the Buffyverse?

I skipped over the VM parts of the post, so as to remain unspoiled, but as for Buffy lines, there are some of my faves:
**
Buffy: Does it ever get easy?
Giles: You mean life?
Buffy: Yeah. Does it get easy?
Giles: What do you want me to say?
Buffy: Lie to me.
Giles: Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.
Buffy: Liar.
**
Cordelia: I personally don't think it's possible to come up with a crazier plan.
Oz: We attack the Mayor with hummus.
Cordelia: I stand corrected.
***
Buffy: When the apocalypse comes, beep me.
***
Spike: Oh, listen to Mary Poppins. He's got his crust all stiff and upper with that nancy-boy accent. You Englishmen are always so... Bloody hell! Sodding, blimey, shagging, knickers, bollocks, oh God! I'm English!
***
Olaf: I've told you a thousand times, I have no interest in this Rannveig. Her hips are large and load-bearing, like a Baltic woman. Your hips are narrow, like a Baltic woman, from a slightly more arid region.
**
And about a billion others... back to work!
Okay...there are so many i can post!
---
Willow: It's just, in high school, knowledge was pretty much frowned upon. You really had to work to learn anything. But here, the energy, the collective intelligence... It's like this force, this penetrating force, and I can just feel my mind opening up, you know, and letting this place just thrust into and, and spurt knowledge into... That sentence ended up in a different place than it started out in.
----
Buffy: I'd like to find Willow and Xander.
Joyce: Will you be slaying?
Buffy: Only if they give me lip.
---
Buffy: Unfortunately, that's all I could get out of my informant before his aggressive tendencies forced me to introduce him to Mr. Pointy.
---
Riley: Morning, Mrs. Summers. You look great.
Joyce: Oh, thank you, Riley.
Buffy: Suck up.
Riley: What? It's a nice outfit.
Buffy: Mmmm-hmmm.
Riley: Besides, "I'm here to violate your firstborn" never goes over with parents. I'm not sure why.
---
That's it for now. XD If I found more..... you'd ahve a chapted book.
I like the short and sweet ones:
"Can you vague that up for me?"
"I didn't jump to conclusions. I took a small step, and conclusions there were."
"You can trust some guys. Really, I've read about them."
"We're right behind you, only further back."
"I'm gonna give you all a nice, fun, normal evening if I have to kill every person on the face of the Earth to do it."
"Why couldn't Xander be possessed by a puppy? Or some ducks?"
etc. :D
And I have similar feelings about Veronica Mars... Though it really hasn't been the same since first season. First season was brilliant.
(To introduce myself: *waves* Hi! I'm one of Kristin's new clients. Been reading your blog for a bit, finally commenting.)
The girl likes a little monster in her man! I love it!
I'd have to say "bored now" is my favorite line because I say it ALL the time. :)
OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG
Buffy is my favorite show on the face of this Earth. Except for Alias. I've been meaning to get into Veronica Mars.
And i had no idea you were a fan.
Just goes to show how perceptive I am huh? Well I did notice a few references in I'd Tell You I Love You But Then I'd Have to Kill You.
Ummmmmm favorite lines...
omg there's too many...
"We saved the world...I say we party."- Buffy
"She saved the world a lot"- Buffy's grave.
"We're all on death's door repeatedly ringing the doorbell, like maniacal girl scouts trying to make quota."- Anya
"Beer bad."- Buffy. Actually that entire episode was hilarious. Ahhh the good old days.
So, we Bronzin' it tonight?- Xander
Wednesdays, kinda beat... - Willow
Well, we could grind our enemies into talcum powder with a sledgehammer, but, gosh, we did that last night. - Xander
(Yeah okay, I had to look that one up too. I have that book "The Quoteable Slayer." You should get it, it's amazing.)
"I love what you are, what you do, how you try... I've seen your strength, and your kindness, I've seen the best and the worst of you and I understand with perfect clarity exactly what you are. You are a hell of a woman. You're the one, Buffy. " - Spike
Oooo last one, I swear...agghh you've got me on a Buffy roll now...
The Ultimate Buffy Speech:
"I'm beyond tired. I'm beyond scared. I'm standing on the mouth of hell and it's gonna swallow me whole. And it'll choke on me. We're not ready? They're not ready. They think we're gonna wait for the end to come, like we always do. I'm done waiting. They want an apocalypse? We'll give them one. Anyone else who wants to run? Do it now, 'cause we just became an army. We just declared war. From now on we won't just face our worst fears, we will seek them out. We will find them and cut out their hearts till the First shows itself for what it really is. And I'll kill myself. There is only one thing on earth more powerful than evil, and that's us. Any questions?"
Woah I must stop. Yayyy Buffy.
Loved VM! And what part of off do u mean lol
Favorite Buffy lines:
Buffy: OI'm stuffy give me a scone(mimicking jyles)
and ok this is inside xanders head yet still spoken so i think it counts
Xander: two plus to is 4, 4 plus 4 is 16, naked girls, buffy, buffy naked....I have to go!
That is not quite how it goes btu thats the gist and it is hilarious!
Love BUffy....specially Dawn! Haha yeah Michelle Tratchenberg
Buffy is the best. Joss is the most quotable writer out there! There are so many good ones...
Tact is just not saying true stuff.
Spank your inner moppet.
You have too many thoughts.
What was that?
I shrugged.
Next time, say shrug.
Sigh.
He said he was going through all these changes, and then he went through all these changes.
Where she goes, so goes my nation.
We could attack the mayor with hummus.
I stand corrected.
He'll never see it coming.
Yay for Buffy Fans! My fave is...
Buffy: Your logic does not resemble our Earth Logic.
Xander: Mine is much more advanced.
i love the one where they all lose their memory and their looking for their names and spike says
Spike:Randy Giles?! Why don't you just call me Horny Giles, or Desperate for-a-shag Giles?!
These are great quotes!
I'd have to say my favorites are
"Picture a confused look on my face"-Buffy from Gone
"You're logic does not resemble our earth logic"- Buffy from The Wish
and "bored now" used in The Wish, Doppelgangland, and Villains by evil willows
How about this one (I'm trying it from memory so it's not exact.)
Oz - Well.... you sure slayed the heck out of that bench. Which is a good thing cause it was looking kinda shifty.
.... and,
Spike to Giles when he surprises him in his house while he's singing - You know, for someone with "Watcher" on his resume, you might want to cast an eye to your front door from time to time"
Ha ha ha! Buffy had some GREAT lines!
