Fell off the 'Spoiler Free' wagon again
Just spoilers from the latest Rob and Kristin chat.
So Troy is returning? Yuck. Some people ship them-I don't understand why. He's a pot head drug dealer (I have pretty much no tolerance for drugs. There are crocodiles*), who had no feelings for Veronica. He was smarmy. He just wanted sex. He went back to his girlfriend as soon as he could. And I prefer Aaron Ashmore's twin.
RT said that her love life wasn't done for the season. This idea is even less appealing than WeeVer. I really hope the show doesn't go there. Can't she just be jealous of Logan/Hannah?
Oh well. If it happens, it happens. I can always take my anger out in MS Paint.
*'There are crocodiles'-is a line (and the title) from the final episode of the cult British show Press Gang. It is spoken by Lynda (Julia Sawalha, Saffy from Ab Fab). A guy on the staff of her newspaper has just over dosed in the office bathrooms. Lynda has no sympathy for this guy saying:
"Okay - it's like this. There's a tribe living by a river, and in the river there are crocodiles. The tribe has one particular piece of wisdom passed down through the generations.
It goes like this: if you happen to meet a crocodile, don't stick your head in its mouth. Every now and then - and who knows the reason - people ignore this advice.
Which is sad. Because they die. But very stupid because they were warned. They had a choice. The moral of this story is - you can't afford to be stupid. There are crocodiles."
"Look, I do care but to be perfectly honest with you I don't care a lot. You had a choice. You took the drugs. You died.
Are you seriously claiming no-one told you it was dangerous? Pardon my saying, but it takes a lot to convince you there's a health risk... I mean, have you had a look at the world lately? Just how dumb do you think it is safe to be around here? There's plenty of stuff going on that kills you and you don't get warned at all, so sticking your head in a crocodile you were warned about is not calculated to get my sympathy.
You're dead, and I do care, but you were weak and stupid and you made a bad choice. And actually that isn't a crime, it just happens to have the death penalty."-Lynda Day
Watching this as a kid, it had a profound effect on me. My attitude towards drugs mirrors Lynda's: drugs can kill you-don't use them. My sister says this too harsh, but there are so many ways you can be killed without actively courting death.
Besides, I do enough stupid stuff without the aid of illegal substances.
