Let me tell you a secret....

++ If anyone still would like a Christmas card, please go to this post and give me your address. Also let me know if you want to send me one so I can give you mine. *g*

++ In the midst of finding new fandoms to get attached to, I've come across one that has surprised me. Pretty Little Liars. Has anyone else watched this season so far? It's good, like really good. I haven't read the books, but I really like it so far and the show really does great with the mysteries and the characters and their relationships. I definitely recommend it for those who like teen dramas that have mysteries. Also, alexwhitman25? I downloaded all of the first season of The Vampire Diaries and will be starting that soon after I finish with Pretty Little Liars. I've also been catching up on the new Hawaii 5-0 and I also like that, too. It's your typical procedural crime show of course, but with Daniel Dae Kim and the lovely Grace Park. Seeing more Asians on my television is a good thing, I mean they had Dichen Lachman in one of the previous episodes. How awesome is that? \O/

++ I also rewatched the third season of Veronica Mars and....I don't understand the negativity people had for it. I thought it was way better than the second season, and actually felt like the first season writing/acting wise, and I'm happy where it ended off, inconclusive probably but with the relationships of characters it was nice, and Veronica had gotten her groove back. So I don't understand the amount of hate it got.

++ Reading articles like this and this make me really pissed off and bitter about what happened with Caprica. For a network that says they are behind the BSG franchise, nothing of what they've done supports such a claim at all. It disappoints and infuriates me, it also makes me even more adamant in fighting against it.

++ HARRY FREAKING POTTER THIS FRIDAY! OMGOMGOMG.

It is almost finally here! Anyone going to the midnight showing? Unfortunately I cannot, however I will be planning on going this weekend for sure and I most certainly am going to be buying a midnight ticket when Part 2 comes out next year. *shaking and crying*

Lol see that's the thing about me. I love Logan, but I don't let my love for the character blind me to some of his flaws. He was a major jackass at time, especially in season 1. I remember when Veronica found out how he treated her at Shelly's party and I thought his behavior was appalling, and yet every was upset that Veronica hurt his feelings in suspecting him of Lilly's death. I mean given their history, I always hated how people were willing to go "aww, poor Logan",and not think that Veronica had good reason to suspect him.

I loved Logan/Veronica and even though they broke up in Season 3, I didn't hate either character for it. I always thought people choosing to hate on the heroine of the show just to side with Logan as baffling. Veronica had her faults but so did Logan, and I hate that no one was willing to see that lol. I'm glad to know I wasn't the only one who loved Veronica in the end.

That's the unfortunate thing about fandom. Some of them don't understand that there are both sides to consider, not just one character and the other character is totally to blame. And fandom always seems to blame the females, never the males, especially male characters they seemingly adore. Which might even seem misogynistic, when you think about it. :/

I'll always love Veronica, no matter what. And Logan is alright too in his own way, but I just didn't enjoy them together. At least not past S1. I felt they were kind of unhealthy for each other. But I could deal with them being friends, had they gotten over their issues.

*stares at you in awe* I swear it's like we are sharing a brain right now

In some of my favorite shows, like Vampire Diaries for instance, I always feel when it comes to a couple, fans will most likely side with the male character because they're in love with him. And I hate that with a passion. I hate how easy it is to be pissed with the woman character and find any reason to side with the male character just because you love him.

I feel better that there are some level headed fans in the world lol. And even though I adored Logan/Veronica they were unhealthy for each other lol, I am mature enough to admit that :)

Awwwww. *smishes you*

I know there aren't that many people in fandom that do that, but the majority of those that do are the loudest of the bunch and I don't think they realize what they're doing. Or they do, but try to hide behind their double standard. For me, Veronica Mars was a show that was showing us those kinds of mistreatment of women and I would have thought that fans would have picked up on that. Look at all the shit Veronica has gone through, you know? She has her flaws sure but every single character had their flaws. Look at Keith and what he tried to do in the third season with that married woman. Turn the tables and had it been Veronica in that position, people would be far harsher on her than on Keith. Or Logan, even though he cheated on Veronica with freaking Madison and people were angry at Veronica for yelling and accusing him. I just, yeah. It just astounds me how fandom dismisses or refuses to acknowledge that kind of double standard bias they hold sometimes. I see it all the time.

There are plenty of of levelheaded fans out there. We're just not as vocal, which I think we should be. You know, to balance out the crazy in fandom. :)
