My Favorite Meta: Buffy, the Vampire Slayer vs “Buffy The Vampire Slayer” by beer_good

transformativeworks:

gracenm:

In honor of @transformativeworks​ Fandom First Friday, I thought I’d rec my all-time favorite Buffyverse meta, which I was thrilled to discover is on AO3! (I first read it on LJ/Dreamwidth.)

beer_good is a fandom treasure and this meta is a perfect jewel. I would never have appreciated Season 7 of BtVS without it.

Here’s the summary: “Buffy The Vampire Slayer isn’t just the title of a television show, or the protagonist, it’s also the central conflict of it, a question hidden in plain sight. The very thing that gives Buffy (and Buffy) strength is the same thing that traps her. The story itself is the biggest bad, and the central problem of season 7 is, how do you end the story without killing the story?”

Read it in all its brilliance here: Buffy, the Vampire Slayer vs “Buffy The Vampire Slayer”

Ooh, thanks for the suggestion, @gracenm!

WHAT

Ok so some fun facts here. Those are military shoulder straps. Most modern uniforms use them to affix epaulets that show rank to.

However their original use was to hold ammo bags, bayonets, and other military gear in place while it was slung over your shoulder.

The reason they show up on so many commercial jackets these days is because a lot of fashion designs have their roots in military uniform designs.

Asking the real questions

Fun fact, this is actually part of a larger series on the most practical medieval weapons for fantasy species.

And it’s legit good too, given the dude who does ‘em also studies these kinds of things for a living!

this series looks super interesting and entertaining and im gonna check it out but goddam if this isnt the funniest name for a video ive ever seen

I love youtube precisely because it gives ordinary people the outlet for talking about their well-researched opinions on very weird and specific subjects that you would not hear about otherwise.

Every time I see a post about updog I’m torn between not wanting to fall for it and wanting to help the poster complete their joke.

okay but what’s updog ?

Updog is a long sausage in a bun often served with ketchup, mustard, onion e, and/or relish.

No, that’s a hotdog. An updog is when a new version or patch of an application is released

You’re thinking of update. Updog is when you end a sentence with a rising intonation.

No, that’s uptalk.  You’re thinking of the fourth-largest city in Sweden.

surely that’s Uppsala, whereas Updog is the giant spider in Harry Potter.

That’s Aragog. Updog is a symbol conventionally used for an arbitrarily small number in analysis proofs

You’re thinking of epsilon. Updog is an upward-moving air current.

no that’s an updraft

updog isn’t a noun at all, it’s a verb; it basically means to chew someone out, or harshly lecture them

No, that’s upbraid. An updog is a small dog that likes cuddling on people’s laps.

No that’s a puppydog. An updog is when the Mets win.

No that’s an upset. An updog is the modern version of a henway.

What’s a henway?

Oh, about 5 pounds.

“queer” is such a useless term. if i tell someone im bisexual, they know i am attracted to men and women. if a man tells me he is gay, i know he is a man exclusively attracted to other men. if someone tells me they are queer, it tells me nothing about them. it doesnt tell me who they attracted to. it tells me nothing about that person.

It tells me they’re trying to be a extra lil bitch and that I shouldn’t be friends with them

No, you probably shouldn’t, for their sake.

yall realise thats exactly the point, right

queer covers everyone who is noncis or nonstraight

it covers the identities you want to erase or disallow from the community

it doesn’t immediately tell you private information about someone’s sexuality or gender that you aren’t entitled to

and the person in question may not even know themselves, but queer is what they know they can always use if they’re not sure except they know theyre definitely not cis/straight

you hate it because it’s too inclusive and too broad. It’s supposed to be inclusive and broad. If someone tells you they’re queer then all you need to know is that they are in some way not cis or straight and other than that it aint your business. If being told someone’s identity is none of your business pisses you off, thats a you problem
