1. Fan Reaction to the Buffy Reboot (or whatever it is) Is pretty much as I predicted. Split. With a lot of people threatening to boycott. The female fans are more upset over it than the male fans..which is interesting. And they are also fighting over whether it is a "remake" or a "continuation", mainly because no one knows what "new iteration" or "reboot" actually means.
This is the original announcement, which I posted in my previous post.
This the fan reactions:

All of this is PROOF, assuming you needed any, that what I said was true -- we have an entrenched passionate fandom that is a wee bit twitchy in regards to Whedon. They love Buffy, they just are not too sure what to make of Whedon. LOL!
I find the whole thing equal parts hilarious and fascinating.
Oh here's Twitter Thread Trying to Figure Out if It is a Reboot, a Continuation or what
2. I figured out how to work the PowerBall3 Wireless Ear Phones. They just make it possible to listen to music on my phone without being inserted in the phone, so when and if I decide to upgrade to an Iphone 8, I don't have to worry about the earphone jack.
3. Cleaned the bathroom, picked up a package with new sandals. Bought two new pairs of leisure sandals that can get wet and are comfortable from Ryka. Also been watching S2 of Wyonna Earp, which is a lot better than S1. S3 is being recorded for later viewing via SyFy.
Wyonna Earp is basically Buffy meets the Wild West. Wyonna is charged via a curse to shoot demons with her father's old peacemaker rifle. She's aided by the opportunistic Doc Holliday, who was cursed with immortality by a Witch, her sister Waverly, a FBI Black Ops agent who is part demon, and
a lesbian cop who has a thing for her sister, who is also a lesbian. It's good mindless fun.
4. And this morning an old Russian lady with a suitcase tried to enter my apartment thinking it was her hotel room.
I answer the door.
Old Russian Lady who doesn't speak English or very little tries to enter.
Me: Eh, no. This my apartment, I don't know you.
Russian Lady: This is 3M?
Me: Yes. But it is also my apt, go away.
Russian Lady: I come here - see 3M.
Me: No, you have the wrong address.
Russian Lady (looks confused): Uhm, sorry. (checks her phone). Hmmm..
I shut the door and lock it. And finally she disappears.
