Ah, so refreshing.
So apparently there’s this rumor that I’m actually a nice person. This is very amusing to me.
5. What the hell up with all the goddamn crying in stories?
Since when do men/women/vampire rabbits cry over their coffee tasting shitty or somebody being mean to them? What the hell? Maybe it’s just me, but until I see it on screen I’m not buying it in fic. Unless somebody has died. Or we’re talking about Lana.
4. The inability to use the goddamn delete button.
Nobody’s standing behind you with a katana to your throat ordering you to read their story.
3. Fandom Stereotyping
Not everybody in HP is a plagiaristic pedophile.
Not everybody is SV is a mean bitch.
Not everybody in BtVS likes Spike.
This should not be earth-shattering.
2. All the goddamn bitching
This is a fandom. It is not your life. Go outside and get some air. Call your friends. Have a drink. Get laid. Walk away for a bit, you’ll feel better.

+They played Johnny Cash. Holy mother of the man in the black. Wow.
+There are a lot of things I could point out about what happens when you lose the plot, but that’s personal and I am so not into the sharing. I will point out however, that yes, when you are certifiable, you really are convinced you’re the sanest person ever. Joseph Heller hit that one pretty much on the money, and I know there were a lot of people who were freaking out last night about how ‘shattering’ the episode was, but from a practical stand-point, for me, it was just like ‘yes, and?’ Not ‘yes, and’ in the bad way, but more in the ‘good, now we can finally get down to business’ way.
The beautiful thing about rock bottom is that you really have no place else to go.
Lex has never needed anybody else anyway. He’s just thought he did, and people who need other people are so leaving themselves open for trouble. [/the word according to me]
+Apart from all the things I refused to think about while this episode was airing I will say that Clark not immediately telling *somebody* that Lex was being drugged is an all new low. If I had a Kryptonite rosary, I’d deliver a Smackdown my damn self. It has been pointed out that there's not really anybody for Clark to tell who would listen (the Ol' DB in cahoots with the shrink. Clark abandoning his family for Lex), so you know, okay. It still smells off to me, but that could just be smell of spilt scotch. That's one way to make somebody want to kick the habit.
The O.C.
Okay, first I have to get my happy dance out the way. I should also point out that I was highly inebriated during last night’s show, so when I got on my knees and starting worshipping the telly, that was probably a very funny thing.
The Good
+ Seth in argyle. So the cutest thing ever.
+Kirsten and Sandy in all black and looking the consummate couple. Hells yes. I want Kirsten’s outfit *now*, damnit! That necklace was sharp.
+Drinking through the holidays. Oh, yes. I’ll toast to that. Slainte.
+Seth trying to find the right comic for Trey. He’s so trying to get in with the future in-laws. *adores*
+I’ll take Teresa over Marissa any goddamn day.
+Ryan as Snoopy? Priceless.
+Seth as a P.I.M.P. with Sandy trying to give him advice. Oh gods, that was a good scene.
The Bad
+Marissa and Ryan as Bonnie and Clyde. I love Bonnie and Clyde. This bastardization made me writhe in agony on the sofa.
+Why was Anna wearing a human version of a doggie sweater? Dude, you know the Queen’s corgis probably have that in dog-size. Also, her lipstick was too bright. How it wasn’t smeared all over Seth’s mouth is beyond me.
WTF
+When you kiss more than one person you notice if they, err, taste like somebody else. Just saying.
+Marissa stowing away in the Range Rover. Bitch, didn’t he tell you he didn’t want company? Yes, I understand the whole if she hadn’t been around, he’d be in the mad shit, but still. Also, dude. She’s SO on my last nerve.
+Lady Deathstrike? Dude, the garanimal people called, they want their curtains back. Stop wearing them.
+ETA: I understand that Marissa wasn't planning on going to Cell Block C when she got dressed in the morning, but dude, could her skirt possibly have been any shorter? I mean let's just think on this for moment. Would *you* go to prision wearing that? Have you seen Oz? (Totally loved that shout-out by the way. You *know* Trey is somebody's prag).
Nuts (A New Category)
+Okay, I heart Summer *and* Anna now. This is problematic.
+I spent all this time watching the O.C. so I missed large chunks of Angel. Does anybody have screen caps (at the very least) of the Lindsey goodness?
Random note: They are remaking Oliver Twist, not as a musical a la Oliver, but as a story about rent boys. I wish I could begin to explain how gleeful this makes me, but then we’d be here the whole damn day. I fucking love Oliver Twist. I know he met up with the Dodger in their 20s, and they had a torrid love affair.

I was pretty upset myself, but it was pointed out that a) how was Clark to know that Lex was going to get locked away? b) the last time Clark kidnapped somebody (Ryan) he brought said person to Lex, and where exactly could he hide *Lex* that nobody would find them? c) Lex does still have mad issues and d) it's pretty much Clark's word against everybody elses. This is not a desirable place to be right now.

Oh well, at least I found the ep to be far more interesting than the Lana-fest of the past several weeks. :)
