We all go a little mad sometimes...


Oh God, how am I already going crazy over this? Oh right because fandom is already making bad choices. Listen universe when you are asked to choose between voting for a panty sniffing bad poetry writing attempted rapist and Buffy freaking Summers you vote Buffy. How hard is that? Or you vote Cordy. Or Fred. Or Willow. Or Dawnie. Or if you must vote penis, vote Oz or Charles Gunn or Xander Harris or Rupert Giles or anyone who is not a panty sniffing bad poetry writing attempted rapist. Damn it Spike, you are not winning this.

Also? Barney Stinson. Seriously? Seriously? He picked up a girl right in front of his ex the day after they broke up. He used her to pick someone else up. This is not cute. This is not adorable behavior. This is asshatery. This is gross. This is wrong. Don’t vote for this guy. There are four other people on this show who are actually legen-yes I’m using his own catchphrase against him-dary. A vote for them is a vote against an immature douche bag. A vote for them will save a puppy. A vote for them might very well save the world. Do it.

And finally: Sawyer is winning by one vote. Sawyer is not undeserving, he’s a good guy. Hell, I like him. But Sawyer doesn’t want you to vote for him. When you vote for him you ruin his street cred. He doesn’t like to be liked, he doesn’t respond well to it (see faked kidnapping/gun snatching plotline that went nowhere).

Sawyer wants you to vote for Juliet. The woman he loved, the woman that made him a real boy. He wants you to vote for the woman who always had his back. Who detonated an H-bomb because she thought it would get him home. The woman who faced the smoke monster and didn’t blink. Who will make you sandwiches with toothpicks. The woman who eats ice-cream after sex and will perform an emergency appendectomy to save your life. The woman who listens to “Downtown” and reads Stephen King novels and speaks Latin and is made of awesomeness and rainbows.

The woman who made him happy.

Remember that fandom. A vote for Juliet will knock that emo-frown right off Sawyer’s face. And I know you all want him to be happy, right?

Oh and in the SPN race, vote Bela. Just because.

Gah. I had no idea about Barney. Gross.
See, this is the kind of important information I need to hear. I will try not to vote for him in the subsequent polls (unless he's up against Dean).

fandom is already making bad choices
Who did you vote for in the Alias poll? There is only one right answer. *stresses out*

[identity profile] ozmissage.livejournal.com 2010-03-02 08:47 pm (UTC)(link)
I have never turned against a character as viciously as I've turned against Barney Stinson. He used to be charming, now I want to throttle him.

I voted Sark for you! :D

[identity profile] aurilly.livejournal.com 2010-03-02 08:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Yay! <3

Also? I am so with you on the Spike thing. I never even really watched that show, but I heard about the rape and could never get behind the concept of him or their relationship. Like, what???? How do you root for that? I always assumed that there was more to the story to make it less offensive. I have no idea. I voted Willow.

[identity profile] ozmissage.livejournal.com 2010-03-02 09:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Post-attempted rape he went off to get his soul back so that he could be a better man which I suppose was supposed to make it all better. Mostly it just made me kind of ragey. I liked Spike for the most part but I think fandom's reaction to him overall is ridiculous and there are so many people in the Whedonverse who are actually awesome.

Willow is definitely a good choice. :D

I am wildly confused but DUH, vote for anyone other than the bad poetry writing attempted rapist *rolls eyes*

I had to use the "it's complicated" line just now when my coworker asked what was so funny. I ain't telling him you used legendary against Barney; I value being alive.

[identity profile] ozmissage.livejournal.com 2010-03-02 10:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Heh. Barney is not to be defended anymore. In the words of Lily Aldrin he is dead to me.

You would think it would be a simple choice and yet Spike is winning. Over a multitude of legitimately awesome characters.

Dude, I've heard people call Sawyer the Spike of Lost and it makes me want to punch them in the face. Sawyer>>>>>>Spike. And yet despite all of the crap he pulled fandom still fawns all over him. Arg. He can not win.

I didn't watch Buffy - only Angel - but I have never and will never understand the Spike love. And frankly, his hair is hideous.

I voted Sark

:/ Team Sydney! \o/ And team Juliet! And team other-kickass-characters-that-are-mostly-women! Except -

in the SPN race, vote Bela.

That's a peculiar way to spell Castiel. (What - he's not a guy, he's an angel ;D).

[identity profile] ozmissage.livejournal.com 2010-03-02 10:04 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't get it. I know the bad boys are appealing to most of fandom, but there's bad and then there's freaking evil. Ugh.

Aww, I only voted Sark because I knew [livejournal.com profile] aurilly would disown me otherwise. I never watched enough Alias to make an informed decision.

Heh. I was so shocked to see Bela listed I was like, I must vote for her! I was one of five last I checked. If Castiel takes down Dean (which I'm really hoping he does or every other character I love is screwed) I will vote for him in the next round. Promise. :)

Uh . . . I voted for Jack. BUT IT WAS A ONE-TIME THING ONLY, I WON'T DO IT EVER AGAIN. This post is amazing.

[identity profile] ozmissage.livejournal.com 2010-03-03 05:02 am (UTC)(link)
Heh. I don't think Jack is a threat so I'm okay with that. ;)

I felt weirdly guilty when I saw that only one person had voted for Miles. I seriously love everyone on Lost, but I have to back my girl.

[identity profile] 823freckles.livejournal.com 2010-03-02 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Juliet's pulled ahead. :)

[identity profile] ozmissage.livejournal.com 2010-03-03 05:02 am (UTC)(link)
YAY!!!

Oh God, how am I already going crazy over this? Oh right because fandom is already making bad choices.

Lol. First day and I'm already going nuts. ;) This will be the death of me.

Go, Juliet, go! *hyperventilates*

[identity profile] ozmissage.livejournal.com 2010-03-03 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
It's okay we can go insane together.

Go, Juliet, go!

Just think how stressed we're going to be during the next round. ;)

one more for Juliet

[identity profile] greedyslayer.livejournal.com 2010-03-03 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
Sawyer was my first favorite, and I'm loving Richard so much right now...but those guys are still alive and kicking while Juliet's DEAD and absent so...yeah, she got my vote. ;)

Re: one more for Juliet

[identity profile] ozmissage.livejournal.com 2010-03-03 05:05 am (UTC)(link)
Exactly! I love pretty much everyone on Lost, but they killed Juliet. She deserves something nice.

[identity profile] tokenblkgirl.livejournal.com 2010-03-03 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
Most of my votes are null and void, I voted for underdogs that had no chance of winning. But I am pulling for Jules, always.

For SPN, I voted for Bobbie. *ducks head*

[identity profile] greedyslayer.livejournal.com 2010-03-03 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
Bobbie was the older mentor guy, right? *is so behind on Supernatural. like, only watched the first 2 seasons*

[identity profile] tokenblkgirl.livejournal.com 2010-03-03 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
Yep, that's him. I figured I should give him some love because I scream his name every time he shows up, the cranky bastard. :D

[identity profile] greedyslayer.livejournal.com 2010-03-03 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
I liked him. Bobbie was way cool. He deserves a vote. But I don't feel right about Supernatural, since I'm not caught up.

[identity profile] ozmissage.livejournal.com 2010-03-03 05:07 am (UTC)(link)
Aww, I voted for a few underdogs myself.

Yay Juliet!

Heh. I can not argue with Bobby love since he's pretty much my favorite person on the show. I was just swept away by the fact that Bela was even an option. :D

and a vote for Buffy! Buffy and Juliet--pretty awesome blondes, aren't they?

[identity profile] greedyslayer.livejournal.com 2010-03-03 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
Also, Spike is one of my favorite BtVS/AtS, but I love Buffy Anne Summers way more, so she got my vote.

Seriously, I may have to do a meta compare and contrast between Buffy and Juliet 'cause, I dunno, they reminded me a lot of each other, like sorta older and younger versions of the same person--the superficial similarties between them (obvious blondes) and their badassery get to me.

[identity profile] ozmissage.livejournal.com 2010-03-03 05:07 am (UTC)(link)
Ooh, I would read that meta. :)

[identity profile] greedyslayer.livejournal.com 2010-03-04 04:44 am (UTC)(link)
I'll have to let you know when that meta's up (maybe when the series ends). ^_^

BTW, nice Dawn icon.
