That “I was all dead and frugal” line always cracks me up.

Also in Flooded:

Willow: Um, Buffy, I know you’re still getting back on your feet after…

Buffy: Lying flat on my back?

Someone once called Buffy a crystalized embodiment of depression by the end of the series, and this highlight reel of her coping with trauma through humor definitely makes me see it that way too.

Yep. Explains why I (as a teen) related to her so much toward the end of the show.

One of my least favorite storylines is Buffy being responsible for paying for everything when she literally just came back from the dead! Like why wasn’t Willow or Tara paying? That made no sense to me and always pissed me off, haha. And like you’re alive, I would roll up on my deadbeat dad so fast for that cash.

They were new poor. They probably kept spending at the usual rate, too

Sarah Michelle Gellar did such an amazing job as Buffy. And she was only 20 when the series started!
