QaF 4x03

[sisabet]

Headtilt is back up - According to drdawn - it isn't back up for me, but it should really only be a matter of time. I think. Ack!

I finally left the IE behind and now have Mozilla and wow. TABS!!! I get it now. I so get it, Mmmmmm tabs...

Okay - I missed last week's QaF and still haven't downloaded it, but Dawn filled me in on what I missed right before last night's ep. So cutting to talk about QaF 4x03


Man, I almost got a concussion from all the frickin' anvils. This show makes Marti Noxon look subtle.

I love Brian. Just - I really really do. I have a song picked out for S4 Brian and every Monday I am gonna listen to it and bask in my pure true love. He called Justin, TIMBERLAKE!!! So cute. And his spiritual home is the bathhouse. Be still my heart.

Why couldn't Emmitt have one freaking cookie?? Lindsey was eating a cookie. Michael was stuffing his fucking face, Gus got a cookie and Mel was eating the fucking dough. These people made me Grrr. Well, all of them but Gus - he is adorable and can do no wrong and is allowed all the cookies he want. Along with Emmitt.

One time, when I was in First Grade there was this kid in my class that I couldn't look at. There wasn't anything wrong with him - he was a normal looking boy and was neat and actually very quiet and I could not stand to see him. My stomach would hurt. I didn't want to say anything to anyone anyway cause he was a nice kid - I liked him in theory - I just couldn't look at him. Something about his mouth and the way he held his face - it triggered this extreme creeped out reaction. I'm not proud of this, but I was six. Actually - remembering his face now I am still creeped out. So strange. The reason I bring this up is because I am having the exact same reaction to Blake. I cannot stand to look at him. At all. His face. And his arms and *shudder* - just. *shudder* If Mrs. Hunt made me sit across from him in the cafeteria, I would spend all of lunchtime staring at my tray, unable to eat.

It doesn't help matters now that Blake is all wise and knowing and everyone's favorite person. If this was a Jossverse show I'd assume this meant his painful and horrid death was fast approaching. I wish this was a Jossverse show.

Why oh why did Ben and Michael and Lindsey and Mel bring Brian with them to Ted's restaurant? Are they incapable of functioning without him? It is called a double date - not we all drag Brian to a cheesey chain restaurant. Anyone that thought he would not complain about the food and mock Ted is an idiot. I know they wanted to show support to Ted, but they all know that is not Brian's thing. Brian supports Ted by keeping him out of prison and arranging for orgies.

I still can't get onto Headtilt. Maybe Dawn purchased the domain again, but it's taking your ISP a little while to set it up?

BTW, I've been remiss on feedbacking "Last Stand," which I love love love. I will watch it again and send you some proper words on the subject.

Dude - I'm trying the remaster thing *again* with Last Stand. I told myself that I would not change a thing and that was kinda freeing and allowed me to make tiny changes without big freakouts as I went. I got to "I come around full circle" last night - so that was cool. I finally fixed the first "looking for a golden calf" and the zoom transition thingy that never worked the way I saw it at the time. Cause I know now, how that works.

Why can't I have a Brian to do friend type stuff like that for me? :)

You completely left out anything about Justin, was there a reason for that?

Justin was freaking me out. I have not yet decided how I feel. I'm on a wait and see with baldy.

Amen, sister! I'm all about defending Em this week. If someone on that show doesn't take a freaking second to realize the abuse he suffered from Ted (who continues to treat him like shit) and that he can't really, just, like, get over it, I'm gonna shove cookies up all their asses. Ted went through rehab? Great. Fabulous. Good for him and his ass attitude. What's the rehab for having been chronically abused by your lover for months and months? I don't know, but it might not be bad to start with, oh I don't know, a cookie.

Feh.

I have mixed feelings about the Blake thing. I never really hated him, just didn't care whether he was there or not. It was so big deal for me.

When I saw him in rehab with Ted, I thought it might be a good thing for him, to help Ted to have a familar face knowing what he is going through. Now though, I think Blake just holds Ted back and keeps him from moving forward and being with his friends again.

Do you get the impression that Brian just keeps getting dragged along for things? Brian's just the mature one who has to be there in case something goes wrong so he can fix it. I never thought I'd say that about Brian, but that's really true. Like when they are at Babylon at the end of the episode and Brian goes to fix things between Mikey and Emmett. I realize that Brian has always known everything, but suddenly he's like "Mr. Fix-it" or something.

That'll change soon I'm sure.

It's funny because I couldn't stand Blake in season 1 but I like him now. But after your talk on the subject, I'm convinced of Ben's sainthood in staying to spot Blake.

The other characters don't know this, but Brian has actually been the best person in dealing with Ted since he got out of rehab (excluding Blake). I'm just glad they brought him along so I could hear "viagra sauce". I am five.

That cookie scene hit me really personally. My grandma did that same thing to me when I was young because I was a chubbier than my brother and sister. I'm still bitter about it today.

because we all know I adore your vids, it is odd that I have yet to put up a 'sisabet is brilliant/this is why post'. Except for that it keeps showing up as almost unseeable, no matter how much I play with the contrast, on this computer.

*le sigh*

I'll hijack Romie's computer the next time I see her. still very excited though! lol

*bursts into tears*

GODAMNIT! You nearly made a C/A shipper out of me with that fucking video.

God, Sis. No one knows him like you do. No one. Paradise is truly a vid of beauty.

Thank you so much for ripping out my heart.

Sigh.

Ilovemydeadgayshow!!

I thought Blake was a slime in season one, and I haven't changed my mind too much this season. Too much water under the bridge for me to do an about face and think he is wonderful.

Then again, I haven't liked Ted at all since he started his downward spiral. Ted really tore it for me when he began being abusive toward Emmett. I love Emmett. I'm sure it is a tribute to Scott's acting ability to make me want to throw things at the TV screen when he's on.

Is it just me or do we have a kinder, gentler Brian this season? He still hasn't said the L word, but he is more demonstrative of his feelings toward Justin than we have ever seen him. He's confirmed that they're partners, and for Brian that's huge. He also seems more inclined to try to guide Justin's poor decisions toward more positive goals. In the past he would have just said fuck it and concerned himself with his own pleasures. And, as someone above pointed out, Brian has moved from not only being the voice of logic and reason to getting involved and fixing people/things/relationships.

The man is a saint. Brian that is, not Ted. Ted annoys me. I happen to think very highly of Scott Lowell, though - so maybe one day he will play a character that does not make me tear out my hair.
