Joss' Rambling: A word

[Mad Hamlet <Mad-Hamlet@xxxxxxx>]

Greetings,

>>To quote Joss, "Not killing off Tara because she's a lesbian would be
equally homophobic as killing her off because she is a lesbian."

I could be off but if I recall Joss correctly he did not say that, what he
said was... "I don't get upset at because people think I killed off Tara
because she was gay, I get upset at people thinking I can't kill off a
character that's mine."

On reflection he didn't say that. It's too well said. But I think that's what
he did say, just not the quote verbatim.

>>I have a friend that keeps sending things like this or quotes that 
she claims are by Joss and I just don't believe her.

Oh I dunno. I would and do. Personally I think Joss tried to take a 'Short
cut' and it didn't work and he got careless and now doesn't like taking his
lumps since he's started being called on it. What I don't understand is this
PR nightmare he's creating for himself. It's a pride thing I would bet. His
got out of control and he let it slip and can't reel it back in.

>>I admit I'm out of the loop due to computer problems but I really 
can't believe Joss could be so dumb.

That is the prevailing question these days.

>>Or my favorite one that only moron's were upset over Tara's death?

Oh it gets better. I think the complete quote was '...are morons. Only
homophobes got upset at Tara's death.'

Right. So...following Joss logic the KKK has regular ceremonies of mourning
for the death of Martin Luther king and Neo-Nazi's world wide make regular
pilgrameges to Jersulem.

Oh and one last thing: According to ME, Willow is gay. Not Bi, Tara was nota
one time flash-in-the-pan(Ultimate destiny, if you believe Joss, being
meat-on-a-slab) but Willow is...Gay. Period.

End of line.

I remain, as always,
