Anywhere But Here

While reading Freshly Blended I came upon a post that talked about the art of Dan-an Kim. One of the pictures has a catchphrase that will ring strongly in the mind of any Buffy the Vampire Slayer fan. The phrase is, “anywhere but here.” Below is the quote from the episode The Dark Age that references it:

BUFFY: I’m on a beach, but not one of those American beaches, one of those island beaches where the water’s way too blue, and I’m laying on my towel, and it’s just before sunset, and Gavin Rossdale’s massaging my feet!
WILLOW: Oh, that’s good! Uh, I’m in Florence, Italy, I’ve rented a scooter that’s parked outside, and I’m in a little restaurant eating ziti, and there are no more tables left, so they have to seat this guy with me, and it’s John Cusack!
BUFFY: Ooo! Very impressive. You have such an eye for detail.
WILLOW: ‘Cause with the ziti!
XANDER: What are you two up to?
BUFFY: Just having a quick game of ‘Anywhere But Here’.
XANDER: Ooohhh. Amy Yip at the waterslide park.
WILLOW: You never come up with anything new.
XANDER: I’m just not fickle like you two, okay? I’m constant in my affections. Amy Yip at the waterslide park!
