shipperx* It's funny, I can get more worked up about the ancillary political debates surrounding the BtVS comics than the fact that within the comic
Buffy is a robot.
I mean, I'm fully aware of the problematic subtext of 'woman loses control of her own body" (hence the ancillary political arguments) but the fact that Joss pulled a 'gotcha!" or that he truncated a Spuffy discussion so that--as ever--it remains unfinished, Buffy's feelings remain opaque, and arguably no interaction at all may have taken place (depending on certain factors regarding Buffy).
Well that's just.. typical.
* Zoe was trembling this morning when I tried to leave the house. I'm not sure whether she's ill (she did throw up during the night, but she didn't appear at all ill this morning when I woke her up for her walk). SHe got wet this morning on her walk because of all the dew (quite wet) and she did lay down on her bed in my bedroom where I had the ceiling fan running (because it was HOT last night. OMG is it really just March? I almost turned on the air conditioning) so maybe she got cold? Mom came over to check on her and she said that she's not trembling and has eaten, had water, and played since I left so maybe it was nothing. Still it was concerning.
* It's hot again today. When I went out for lunch my car was HOT. It's only MARCH!
* Not a lot was on tv last night. "Modern Family" was 'eh'. Patricia Heaton has sapped my enjoyment from "The Middle." "Happy Endings" was rather forgettable. And "Daily Show" and "Colbert" were only so-so.
*sigh* Ennui.

Date: 2012-03-17 04:03 am (UTC)She's also same as she ever was regarding Spike. She says that she's ashamed because people look at her the same way they look at Spike. That if she ran off with him it wouldn't work and would basically be squalid. When someone assumes that Spike is her boyfriend, she gets angry and confronts Spike who tells her that he still loves her. And, of course, she can't respond because her arm is ripped off revealing... she's a robot.
Such is what's left of Joss Whedon and his 'ideas'
And I do think that Zoe was just chilled. She's been perfectly fine since.
