eleven things… plus pumpkins.

Posted on 31 October 2018 by what sandra thinks

Today is Halloween. I haven’t written anything suitable lately, so I’ve decided to share something from long ago. From Nov 3, 2015, to be exact.

But before I get to that, I’ll share a couple of pictures I took today (along with zombie baby above that I took a couple of weeks ago).

I don’t think the Great Pumpkin is coming.

The series ended 12 [now 15… holy crap, I’m old] years ago, but it taught us some valuable truths. Read them. Heed them. And you can thank me later.

11 things I learned from Buffy the Vampire Slayer

  1. Never underestimate the power of a pointy stick.
  2. If you only see that super-hot guy you like at night, he’s probably a vampire.
  3. Don’t eat all of the fundraising chocolate bars you’re kids bring home.
  4. Spend an inordinate amount of time in the library.
  5. Adding Weetabix to blood gives it texture for a lovely breakfast.
  6. Don’t bring friends and loved ones back from the dead – it never ends well.
  7. Even in the worst possible situation, sarcasm and humor are always good ideas.
  8. Bunnies are to be feared.
  9. Always bring kittens to a poker game.
  10. If one is a British man, he will sound intelligent and sophisticated and God damn sexy no matter what he is saying. [Okay, I knew this one a long time ago…]
  11. You can face life by doing things the hard way or… actually, there’s just the hard way.

 

Happy Halloween. May you eat too much chocolate with no regrets.

    Ok. A couple of things. Totally agree with no. 7. No. 3 is really good advice. As for no. 10, make that South African or French…and female…and I’d be totally on board.

    Oh, and what the fuck is that thing in the header?!? Are you trying to kill me? 😳

    Love Buffy. Sad they’ll be remaking it. What was your favourite episode? Mine was probably Hush. And as I’m from England I totally agree with point 10 haha.
