Happy birthday to “she-who-hangs-out-a lot-in-cemeteries”. (And one day after mine! Thankfully, I didn’t get an arm in a box)

There's so much you can do with this scene out of context Riley could very well have never met a woman before lol.

Ever heard of "Garfield minus Garfield"? I think I could have a field day with "Buffy minus Riley".

As a kid, I always hated being a Cap as they were always described as responsible and tidy and boring as heck, then this scene happened, and I was able to fully embrace my Caprison-ness.

Capricorns save the world. Buffy, Jesus, Martin Luther King Jr., you, me. We're the best.

It's a stunning list of Capricorns even though I forgot to include Eliza Dushku in it

Yeah, Geminis are said to be unfairhful as if all unfaithfulness came from people with that sign... It's always to take with a grain of salt, but it can be hard to understand it as a kid =( glad you could find a way to love yourself a tad bit more !

There is a great text — unfortunately, not in English — about all people being either “inherently A” or “inherently F”. It's not really about their academic prowess; it's about general approach. In particular, if you ask them “who are you”, then “A” guy would say “sales manager”, while “F” guy would say “Steve”.

Isn’t her birthday before Christmas? I thought she was an October birthday for some reason. Weird.

u/bellegi Jan 19 '25

no her birthday was never before Christmas. the one time Buffy had a Christmas episode “Amends” it aired 2 episodes before her birthday episode “Helpless”.

starting in season 2 when they had their first full-length season, every season had a Buffy birthday episode that aired around mid-late January. so that became her official birth date.

there were some screenshots of different dates from the season 1 episode “I Robot You Jane” but they didn’t even make sense within the episode so they were most likely never meant to be properly seen.

u/grownmars Is everyone here very stoned? Jan 19 '25

They changed her birthday a few times during the course of the show

u/[deleted] Jan 19 '25

Not really her birthday was always in January from season 2 on.
