Oy Vey, Black Friday.

[rogueslayer452]

Today is basically my day of lounging, since I'm avoiding going out for shopping or otherwise. It was already preplanned due to it being Black Friday, and after watching several news segments this morning of people rushing into stores and malls as they opened, crowding and overflowing the aisles for those special sales, I was glad to not have ventured out today. Of course more power to those who were adventurous and risked going out on this Black Friday; you all have the bravery and guts, for I personally cannot stand the crowds and insanity.

It's time for a fandom meme, taken from snowfire:

Let's admit it: sometimes fandom is a scary place. Often, actually. All the time. And sometimes don't you just look at fandom's most popular opinions and go "-the fuck?" Now's the time to come clean with your unpopular opinions. It's good for the soul. Here's how it works:

1.) Post this up on your journal.
2.) Your friends will comment with some of your fandoms.
3.) In a new post (or in comments) respond back with one or two of your unpopular opinions for that fandom. (Ex: I love Lana! I don't care about previous seasons of Doctor Who! Teddy Dunn is teh_best actor evar!)
4.) Tag some friends.

I'm not tagging people; anyone is free to do this meme if they choose to. Now come on, my lovely peeps, give me one of my favorite fandoms to give my unpopular opinions about, any at all.

Veronica Mars!

1. I love Dick Casablancas. Even though he can be an asshole and insensitive, since that's his character, there's another side of him that's sympathetic. Originally I didn't want to like his character because of his asshole tendencies, but he began growing on me since the second season. Mainly due to his hilarious comments and one-liners, but seriously after the finale "Not Pictured", I suspected there would be lots more to what's revealed of his character than what we'd seen on the surface. Plus, Ryan Hansen! ♥

2. On the flipside, I don't necessarily care for Logan Echolls. I thought there were cute moments during season one, especially between the secretive growing relationship between him and Veronica, but in season two things started going downhill for my liking of both the pairing and for Logan in general. To be honest, I just don't see the big deal about him in the first place. I also think that Rob Thomas is making it centered all around them, when the show originally was about the mysteries and Veronica solving those mysteries with her snark and sleuthing.

3. Mac needs more screentime. Also, I'm kind of that person that likes seeing rarepairings, so I tend to like Dick/Mac.

4. Even though I'll always love Veronica Mars, I think Veronica is losing some of her spunk that she had from the first season. I don't know whether it's the writing or whatever, but I'd rather have character development without having Veronica completely discard the cautiousness and sensibility she once had. I know she's trying to be normal as opposed to when we first saw her being ostracized, but I knew there was a change especially during the second season. This is why, out of all the seasons, the first is my most preferred and favorite.
