like I had no idea there were Clark/Lana shippers until linzeems told me
Hee - I apologize profusely for skewing your SV worldview like that. Man, when I found out there were *actually* Clanas, and it wasn't just some made up thing people try to make you think exists (like the easter bunny or Lana Lang's personality)...well, it was very sad.
Hey - I like Bo Duke! Though more in fanfic...to be honest the Kents on the show sort of annoy me, for the same reason Mrs Scully annoyed me on TXF. So much wholesomeness and muffins and "sure, let the bad men electrocute your best friend because then he'll forget your secret and hell, he's just a Luthor anyway." Also, sometimes I cannot believe they are really saying the things they are saying - nobody talks like that. If I wanted placitudes I'd watch 7th Heaven. But I digress.
I've never ever blamed Bo for not liking Lex. I think as a whole the fandom woobifies Lex and doesn't quite like the fact that the characters on the show don't all share our viewpoint. Hey, like you said - I'd freak out too if a 21/22 year old with money and a reputation for being something of a playboy started hanging around my sweet (if totally naieve) innocent little 15 year old alien son. My little sister is almost 15 and the first time I realized that hey, Clark's supposed to be her age and Lex is hanging around an awful lot...well, I had a minor freak out. Then I realized the Clex transcends my age squick and got over it. But I cannot blame Bo for not doing the same. *g*
Although honestly, sometimes I think the other reason the fandom doesn't like Bo is that he speaks the truth - one day Lex *will* be a very very big danger to Clark - we know this. It is canon. We just don't *like* it, and Bo likes to say it. A lot.
