Okay, but I trust no one has anything bad to say about Alyson Hannigan, right? _Right?!_ ---

Any pictures of her “breing a dick”? I haven’t learned anything new yet today. ---

I don’t care THIS much. I’m done with this. It’s too much work. But maybe others have examples. I could just paraphrase or give you crap others told me. But to act like I shouldn’t care is pretty lame, since there are threads all over. Don’t mean to attack “Buffy” or fans of “Buffy” or of any other work she does. I was upset at something she said on a talk show the other night, (just like she pissed me off before), so I looked for an existing thread to vent about actors people despised, or something like that. I’m sort of warn out talking about this, and me making such a big thing out of it.:rolleyes: And I care THAT much for the same reasons everyone else does in the pit talking about actors or ESPN announcers. But it’s not fair to her that I say “something LIKE what types of things she’s said”… I guess I was just hoping for people to say “yeah, I know she acted like she was such hot shit on so-in-so…” or even “I never saw her act smug.” But if there are people out there who don’t like her and give a specific reason… post by all means. I need to go now. Yes, it was a mistake making this thread. That’s not to say I have no reason to hate her guts, just none to divulge and it’s not fair to you. It doesn’t mean no one should care… if I were to make a point of this madness.:smack: ---

So … you both went looking for a thread to vent about the same person at the same time. I’m leaving this thread post-hasty. ---

Oh, I’ll hear about this for a while That was Diff T. He couldn’t get on Dope or something, he Emailed that to me, which I was supposed to send a lot earlier. I don’t the guy in person, but I know we have the same favorite movie. I SHOULD have put it was from him, but I forgot. This is the second time I posted for him. I’m not in “cohorts” with him. I know not his first name. I CUT and PASTE. OK, I have a question. It’s way OT. I don’t understand why people hate Carson Daily. I like his late night gig. Never saw TRL. No one I’ve talk to has a good reason for hating him. I think it was on Dope I read a nasty, pointless thread about him. Can anyone tell me why he is hated so? ---

If you promise to be nice. > [@](#): > > **Diff T:** You’re one of the good ones Coldfire. Get a room. FTR though, I completely agree with **Diff T**. She is one of the ugliest women I’ve seen on TV for quite a while (just check out her nose in nearly any film she does - it’s just plain scary at times - specially when she’s angry). And watching her do some acting scenes is painful. But (just to keep the cumulative balance and to not piss the Buffy fans off too much) I thought her role in CI as a sub-zero misunderstood-yet- troubled bitch was real ace. ---

> [@](#): > > Get a room. They’d better not! 🙂 FTR, I know almost nothing about SMG, but I do like Buffy, and since this SMG has zero impact in my life other than the series, I couldn’t care less what kind of person she is in real life. ---

Schwey. Tough chick. At least you can prob kick SMG’s ass. Or just scare her away, depending on your preference. ---

Thank you, andros. I think it would have been more appropriate had Diff T called her a bitch, a cunt, or a ho. Oh, well. ---

I think SMG is cute…when I can ignore her nose. I think she was much cuter 4 or 5 years ago though. I put off watchin Buffy for 5 1/2 years because I didn’t like SMG—for no real reason, I just don’t like a lot of celebrities. But she does what she needs to do for BTVS, and thta’s all I care about, so I guess I like her now… ---

I’ve a soft spot in my heart for Sarah. At the age of 6, she was a champeen hugger and a very sweet funny kid. I spent time here and there with her during her elementary school years. My wife was her music teacher. 🙂 I used to help with the lights, build a few sets there, etc. Lovely memories. Somewhere I have a vhs of her in a school play… Oh, by the by, she denies ever having attended the school where my wife taught. Her bios seem to gloss right over it. Interesting… Cartooniverse ---
