Things I learned from Buffy The Vampire Slayer

@thingslearnedfrombtvs / thingslearnedfrombtvs.tumblr.com

Hello friends!! I am looking for some new things to post here so please make yourselves friendly with our submit box so we can get back to posting the good stuff!!

So here's a random update that you probably don't care about~

So we're baaaack! And setting up a queue for you guys. (I'd put a gif here but I don't have them anymore, thank you dudes who stole my baby)

But, my laptop with all my "things learned" posts and info was stolen last year so I've completely lost track of the numbers! So... forgive me if some of them overlap I shall try my best to prevent that from happening. (Starting to wish I'd just kept the numbers in order rather than picking them out at random... hm.) 

So remember to submit so I can keep the posts coming!

Thanks! I'll be starting a rewatch soon so I'm hoping that we'll be posting a lot more then!

Awz, I love love love BtvS, and so naturally every Buffy blog I cross on the tumblr street makes me stop for a while and like/reblog like there's no tomorrow. ^_^ And I LOVE your concept and idea! Cause, let's be honest, we have learned enough for 10 000 lifetimes from BtvS. It needs to get out there! Keep it up, you have a loyal follower in this simple soul. Hugs!

Thank you! It really means a lot! 

Just so you know I'm old (27) and joined tumblr just so I could follow this! I love this! I'm in the middle of a Buffy/Angel re watch so I'll submit some ideas soon :). Thank you for taking the time!

Oh, thank you!

I'm trying to start my own rewatch with a friend of mine so hopefully I can refresh a bit and have some more things to post. You rock!

Reasons Buffy Summers is Awesome

  • Because even as a sixteen year old she willingly goes to sacrifice her freaking life to save the world.
  • Because she keeps on fighting even when she has nothing but herself.
  • Because she has the most badass quips ever.
  • Because she has the most badass hair ever.
  • Because she’s been hurt by so many people. Angel. Spike. Willow. Faith. And she forgives them all even though it would be completely understandable if she didn’t.
  • Because she basically owns the Watchers’ Council’s asses multiple times.
  • Because she cares so damn much about all her friends and family. She’ll do anything for them. It gets harder for her to get attached to people as she grows older, but when she loves, she loves with her whole heart.
  • Because she’s not perfect. She makes mistakes. She sometimes almost gives up. But in the end, she’ll always do what’s right.
  • Because in Season Six, she didn’t want to be alive and she couldn’t tell her friends because they had all these expectations of her and she was afraid of what she was becoming and she had to work at the freaking Doublemeat Palace and she hated herself and she STILL kicked ass and continued to pretend she was okay and took care of everyone even though everything was falling apart. And because despite all the pain she overcame all that, learned to live again.
  • Because she changed the story of Slayers forever. She didn’t just save the world, she changed it.
  • Because she’s just a girl, and she’s what monsters have nightmares about. She walks, she talks, she shops, she sneezes. She loves, gives, and forgives. I could go on forever. She is Buffy Anne Summers and she is my favorite character in my favorite TV show because she is fucking amazing and beautiful in every single way. Okay? Okay.
Anonymous asked:

Hello! I just want to say that this is a fantastic concept! I'm a Buffy addict. I've seen every episode at least twice, and most of them way more. I was an RA last year, and I used photocopies of Buffy DVD covers with a quotation to make signs for the doors in my dorm. There were only 6 rooms (I went to a small school), so the season of Buffy corresponded with the number on the door. I think you'd find the quotations I used amusing, but I seem to be running out of space. You're awesome! -Lauren

It always motivates me to find messages like this in our inbox.

So thank you Lauren! And it's always great to hear about Buffy fans and the like! I wish that I could answer all of your messages, but I don't want to spam our followers!

And I'll get to work on your submissions!
