My name is Benji, I'm 33, have four great kids and live in China, ME. and honestly only watch television when my wife is watching television, otherwise I have buffy or angel dvds going at all times (it's become like comfort food for my brain).

I have yet to pick up any of the comic's, which is ironic as I used to collect comics when I was younger, plus I suppose a part of me is reluctant to make the leap from live-actors to drawn.

Ringtones

I created custom ring-tones for every family member listed in my cell phone which I recorded from a character or reference from buffy or angel episode:

• Randy (my uncle):

"Randy Giles? Why not just call me Horny Giles, or Desparate-for-a-shag Giles?! I knew there was a reason I hated you...Randy is a family name, undoubtedly..."

―Spike/Giles^[src]

• Gaye (my aunt):

"Willow! I'm going gay...gay me up, comon, let's gay! Just...tell me what to do..I'm mentally undressing Scott Bakula, that's a start, right? Ahhhh....captain Archer. Comon! Let's get this gay show on the gay road, help me out here!"

―Xander/Andrew^[src]

• Sharon (my mother):

"I'm Kevin.......Sharon........Don't you hate places like this?"

―Kevin/Sharon^[src]

• Tami (my wife):

"...Just ask Tammy here.....Tammy where?.....Hello miss."

―Skip/Cordelia/Tammy^[src]

• Tisha (aka Tish, my wifes sister)

"You ever hear of the T'ish Magev? Thank you Ramone, I was just thinkin' I'd rather be drinkin!"

―Lorne^[src]

"You're....death?...You've come to take me....Hahahahahahahaha!....Kidding, I'm Skip!"

―Buffy/Xander/Willow^[src]

• Angel (my sister):

"And this whole I'm Angel thing is a very, very bad idea. I mean, if I thought that would work, I could've been Angel, because, guess what, pretty much a girly name!"

"...shoulda put a leash on him...yes let's tie ourselves to the crazy vampire..."

―Stephanie^[src]

• Benji (myself! (on my wifes phone)):

"So, what's the hubbub, bub? What do you got against old Benji?"

―Glory^[src]

Family Name Coincidences

My daughter's name is Willow, named after powerful witch Willow Rosenberg from of course Buffy the Vampire Slayer, a (post-modern) gothic cult tv series from the 90's/early 2k's.

My sisters name is Angel, named after powerful witch Angelique from the show Dark Shadows, a gothic cult tv series from the 70's. (This witch has a twin sister named Alexis, which is my daughter Willow's middle name, chosen by my wife created an unintentional coincidence.)

If I were born a girl, my name would have been Mandy after Barry Manilow's song Mandy, which is one of Angel's favorite songs on the show.
