Okay, this is getting reidiculous, if you don't mind, I'm just posting a new comment, because the replies keep moving more and more to the side of the screen XD!
But here you go:

1/????, because apparently there's a 4300 character limit...

Also replaying that promo whenever you get the chance? I love it soooo much and not just because it’s LuRe! I discovered recently that I seem to have a thing for Reid’s voice XD!

It's just hard for me to wrap my head around the idea of someone not seeing what I thought was glaringly obvious (i.e., Luke being still hung up on Noah).
I’ve been saying for weeks that rather than still being in love with that asshat fucker Noah, Luke is just still hung up on the idea of Noah and everything he represented. But last Tuesday’s episode just didn’t sit well with me. I know it was practically “Throw the Nukies a bone-day”, but I disliked it nonetheless. And, even though I do think Luke is in love with Reid and has been for quite some time, the idea of Noah/Nuke still scares the crap out of me. Who’s to say that TPTB won’t go all psycho on us and pull a 180, by suddenly having Luke realize that he wants to be with Noah after all? I know that’s probably not where the story is headed, because imo there was never really a triangle, just Luke and Reid with Noah as a prop, but still.

I thought it was kind of boring, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't need something so non-dramatic after Tuesday. Plus it validated my belief that Reid is the most perfectest man in the history of ever. XP
Wednesday was sooooo incredibly boring. I loved how they worked through the Noah issue and the ‘Tasty Hot side dish’-comment, but it wasn’t really a LuRe-episode; something felt off. But still, it was a nice change after Tuesday. And yeah, Reid is sooooooo awesome. And he becomes more awesome with each passing day and every episode. Just when I think I cannot possibly love him even more, he does something that makes me adore him so much more. He really is the most perfectest man in the history of ever. The father of my possible future children will have to be at least half as awesome as Reid. I won’t settle for anything less, LoL!

He's so immature and pathetic it's cringe-worthy. What Luke still sees in him, I will never understand.
I’d really like to know whatever hold Noah’s got on Luke, aside from the whole “He’s my first love, my life, my reason for being”-crap Luke used to spout. And I read something about Noah’s growth in that TV guide article and in Jake Silbermann’s interview with Michael Fairman. Where the hell is this growth? Luke has grown SO much since meeting Reid, yet the only difference between Noah in January and Noah in August, is the fact that he was blind then and isn’t now thanks to Reid.

OH, VAN, HOW SO BRILLIANT? Have you seen comeoctober's .gifs of that scene?
OMG, I almost DIED laughing! Luke on Caffeine is SO effin’ hilarious. The EYES XD!

2/2, I guess XD!
Me, too! ♥ Rooftop!Luke is always such a joy to watch. And not just 'cause he ripped Noah a new one (although that did feel pretty damn good, LOL), but because I enjoyed it just as much when he stood up for himself later on with Reid (even though Reid was in the right and Luke acted like the drama princess that he is).
I can watch that last Nuke scene all day <3333. I LOVED how Luke defended his boyfriend and basically implied that Noah should just SUCK IT. And I also loved that, when Reid came over, he immediately confronted him about it, not taking any crap and standing up for himself. THIS is the Luke that I love. This is the Holden (and perhaps Damian) in Luke and I love that part of him, as opposed to every part of Lily in Luke XD! Like acting like a drama princess….
Me, too. Or, well, IDK about the like part per se, because I think I actually suffer from a mild form of OCD, but I can totally relate.
Good, you too? I didn’t want to come out and immediately go for a mild form of OCD, but I have a few really weird OCD-ish quirks, LoL!
And most of it is so good, too! In my 7 years in fandom, I've always found it relatively, um, hard XP to find well-written smut, but newssodark, _alicesprings, rhiannonhero, bigboobedcanuck etc. have it down to an art form!
The smut in the LuRe-community is unbelievable. Just….NGHHHH… No words, it’s THAT good. Wait, I’ve got a few words… It really is an artform and after the show ends, I might print a few of those fics, like Mech_bull’s Fabrication or tonight’s “Five times Casey was awesome!”by suz_voy. Seriously, someone should collect the most awesome fics and bind them in a book for all of us to keep.
Wow, 7 years, huh? How old are you, anyway XD? Apart from a few active moments in other fandoms (writing a few fics, posting on a board here or there) this really is my first legit fandom, where I really feel part of a community. I love how all the LuRe-places (LJ, facebook, LRonline, Soapcentral board, Youtube) are connected and you keep running into the same awesome people.
One of the things I love the most about our fandom is how we're so not ashamed to plan our lives around LuRe and encourage each other's fangirly insanity, haha!
Haha, I loved that recent post on the LJ about all the things people have done since getting addicted to LuRe. Amazing, how many people plan their lives around LuRe =). I was THIS close to switching shifts at work, so I can watch the episode on Thursday, but then thought about it and realized that I’d be trading a mere 3 hours for an entire 8 hour shift, just to watch LuRe. So I didn’t do it after all and now I’m gonna miss half the episode. They better start having sex during the SECOND half of the episode!!!!

Noah should just SUCK IT.

A privilege that would probably be wasted on him, unlike Reid. XP XP XP [/hussy]

Sing it, sista!

Like acting like a drama princess

TBCH, I sort of like Luke's penchant for drama princessness, as long as it doesn't make him completely unreasonable, which, thankfully, it didn't in that particular scene.

Good, you too? I didn’t want to come out and immediately go for a mild form of OCD, but I have a few really weird OCD-ish quirks, LoL!

Fandom-wise, it doesn't really bother me, but it can be somewhat of a hindrance to school productivity and general sanity, lol. ^^''

The smut in the LuRe-community is unbelievable. Just….NGHHHH… No words, it’s THAT good.

I couldn't agree more.

Seriously, someone should collect the most awesome fics and bind them in a book for all of us to keep.

I would love to own a copy of The Complete Works of lure_atwt, bad!fic included! (Oh, hello there, OCD! *LOL*)

Wow, 7 years, huh?

Yep. I actually owe my introduction to the joys of slash to the Backstreet Boys, haha!

How old are you, anyway XD?

27. ^^'' (Even though I look like 20, tops.)

this really is my first legit fandom, where I really feel part of a community.

The only other place where I've felt this way is cm_hotch_reid, where I met one of my best friends and fangirl twin, but, even there, I was/am (I've been neglecting it a lot, lately) a lot less active compared to lure_atwt. I love that most of the lure_atwt people are as insanely obsessed/invested as I am and that they enjoy fangirling/being 'silly' (see rampant use of CAPSLOCK, which I adore) over the boys as much as I do.

I love how all the LuRe-places (LJ, facebook, LRonline, Soapcentral board, Youtube) are connected and you keep running into the same awesome people.

I'm only active on LJ, but yeah, I've noticed that. We're a big family in a small world. =)

I’d be trading a mere 3 hours for an entire 8 hour shift, just to watch LuRe. So I didn’t do it after all

I would have made the same decision. ;)

and now I’m gonna miss half the episode. They better start having sex during the SECOND half of the episode!!!!

Even though they didn't do it (GRRR!) (yet?), you got lucky, didn't you? I couldn't watch it live, either, because the livefeeds weren't working for me. The tvpc one actually worked smoothly for me, but a stupid ad telling me I needed the current makelivetv plugin was all over the screen! >( And when I tried to actually download the damn plugin, it wouldn't let me. So, unless one of the other livefeeds start working again, I'm afraid I'll have to miss all future live discussions. ;__;

HAPPY LURESDAY!!!!! OMG, BB, ARE YOU AS EXCITED AS I AM????

I was besides myself with excitement! Here are my thoughts on the episode. ;)

this is getting reidiculous

I C WHAT U DID THERE. XD

if you don't mind, I'm just posting a new comment, because the replies keep moving more and more to the side of the screen

I was hoping they would automatically get 'compressed' the way they do over at lure_atwt, but I was ultimately going to suggest the same thing, LOL!

because apparently there's a 4300 character limit

IKR? So annoying.

Also replaying that promo whenever you get the chance?

HELL TO THE YEAH, HAHA! Is it freaking Thursday, yet?!

I discovered recently that I seem to have a thing for Reid’s voice XD!

Your membership card is in the mail. ;D

I’ve been saying for weeks that Luke is just still hung up on the idea of Noah and everything he represented. But last Tuesday’s episode just didn’t sit well with me.

That's what I kept telling myself, too, and I was starting to actually believe it after Luke's knee-weakening You're the one that I want to be with, but then Tuesday's episode shot all of my hard work to hell.

I know it was practically “Throw the Nukies a bone-day”, but I disliked it nonetheless.

I disliked it all the more for that very reason.

And, even though I do think Luke is in love with Reid and has been for quite some time, the idea of Noah/Nuke still scares the crap out of me.

Me, too. *sigh* I'm beginning to think he's in love with both of them. *shudder*

by suddenly having Luke realize that he wants to be with Noah after all?

I'm not trying to be a gratuitously Negative Nancy, but I'm completely terrified (and almost sure) that's exactly how it's going to go down. Here's to hoping I'm spectacularly wrong!

I loved how they worked through the Noah issue and the ‘Tasty Hot side dish’-comment, but it wasn’t really a LuRe-episode; something felt off.

This, this and this.

Just when I think I cannot possibly love him even more, he does something that makes me adore him so much more.

I love how I've been saying that after every episode for, like, 5 months now. =D

He really is the most perfectest man in the history of ever.

.:gets all moony-eyed:. I think there are only two other tv characters I TOTALLY, UTTERLY and COMPLETELY worship the way I do Reid Oliver: Hotch from Criminal Minds and Chandler from F.R.I.E.N.D.S.. That's how bad I got it. (This would undoubtedly make more sense to you if you knew how ridiculously in love with Hotch & Chandler I am, but you'll have to trust me on this. ;)

The father of my possible future children will have to be at least half as awesome as Reid.

IKR? Not that I plan on ever getting married/having children, but he ruined me for anyone else even more, LOL!

And I read something about Noah’s growth in that TV guide article and in Jake Silbermann’s interview with Michael Fairman.

I skipped that interview for fear of spoilers (I plan on going back to read it in a month or so, though), but that's hilarious. Though I'm not surprised Jake said something like that because, over the last few months (read: in the face of Reid's growing popularity), he's almost always come across to me as annoyingly defensive of Noah. Like when he said in another interview that Reid deserved to be punched. .:facepalm:.

Luke has grown SO much since meeting Reid, yet the only difference between Noah in January and Noah in August, is the fact that he was blind then and isn’t now

Needless to say, I couldn't agree more. Although, I have to admit that that doesn't really bother me at this point.

Frankly, if Luke does, indeed, go back to Noah, Noah's lack of emotional growth will only highlight how contrived and ridiculous a Nuke endgame is at this point. And, well, not that they seem to give a shit, but it's certainly going to reflect poorly on TPTB, the way I see it.

The EYES XD!

I especially loved the comment of hers in which she established a .gif parallel between Luke & Reid's ridonkulous faces: yet another proof of how MEANT TO BE they are. XP

P.S.: Feel free to comment on any other entry so you don't have to wait for me to unscreen your comments in this one. ;)

OMG, BB, ARE YOU AS EXCITED AS I AM???? It's gonna be EPIC, I don't even care what happens today, I'm just glad our boys are on<3333!!! Well, I do care THEY SERIOUSLY NEED TO HAVE SEX, but I'm really glad they're on!!! I'm gonna try to lower my expectations, though, because I hate getting disappointed all the time.
Oh, shizzzz, it's time for work XD. I'll just finish my reply later, LoL XD!

Okay, BB, today is Bi-weekly ‘Damnit, stop procrastinating and reply to all of those awesome comments’-day. Oh, and LuResday, of course :D!!!! I’m SO excited!!!! I’ve never been this excited about Luke/Noah scenes, lol!
HAPPY LURESDAY!!!!!

I C WHAT U DID THERE. XD
Whattttt? REIDiculous IS TOTALLY A WORD, OKAY??? Same goes for REIDING, REIDISM and every other word that has a Reid-like-syllable XD!

I was hoping they would automatically get 'compressed' the way they do over at lure_atwt, but I was ultimately going to suggest the same thing, LOL!
I tell you, it’s a fail of epic proportions, the way comments don’t compress on your own journal XD.
AND I basically agreed with ALL of your thoughts on last Thursday’s episode. Like, the cockblocking by a rattle????? I mean, WTF???? You just need a BED (You’re at Reid’s) and some PRIVACY (It’s just the two of you, no cockblockers in sight)…Hmmmmkay… Though, when they got blocked by the rattle, Luke did look around all “Damnit, that kid lives here too…” But that couch makeout scene….GUHHHHH, was not expecting that and it was beautiful. Just gorgeous and SO hot. If only that would have continued… You could clearly see Reid trying to move forward and Luke leaning back a little…

Your membership card is in the mail. ;D
What do we do during “Reid’s voice”-club meetings? Listen to tapes of Reid and analyze every word? Like I already do anyway?

That's what I kept telling myself, too, and I was starting to actually believe it after Luke's knee-weakening You're the one that I want to be with, but then Tuesday's episode shot all of my hard work to hell.
But then again… Last Thursday’s episode completely turned it around again, when Luke just needed a bed and some privacy. I’m back in the whole “Luke is totally in love with Reid and not still hung up on Noah”-camp. But ask again later, because today’s episode might show Luke doing a complete 180 again XD! But about Luke and Reid and Couch and Hotness… Seriously, HOW are they not screwing ALL THE TIME???? Damn those TPTB fuckers!!!

I'm not trying to be a gratuitously Negative Nancy, but I'm completely terrified (and almost sure) that's exactly how it's going to go down. Here's to hoping I'm spectacularly wrong!
Well, after yesterday’s preview and the sneak peek, I think we’re going to be pleasantly surprised by how out of love Luke is with Noah =)!

I love how I've been saying that after every episode for, like, 5 months now. =D
And to think, Chris and Katie have the exact opposite effect on me: No offence, if you’re a diehard Chris/Katie fan, but just when I think I can’t possibly hate either of them even more, one or the other does something that makes me loathe them so much more. I can’t stand the fact that LuRe (and most of the Hughes family) is being used to prop Katie and Chris.

.:gets all moony-eyed:. I think there are only two other tv characters I TOTALLY, UTTERLY and COMPLETELY worship the way I do Reid Oliver: Hotch from Criminal Minds and Chandler from F.R.I.E.N.D.S.. That's how bad I got it.

It definitely is in my book. ;)

Including reidgasm, LOL.

Listen to Reid reading smutty LuRe fanfic, duh! XD

No offence, if you’re a diehard Chris/Katie fan

None taken. I used to like Katie as a character, but I've always found Katie/Chris a painfully dull pairing.

I can’t stand the fact that LuRe (and most of the Hughes family) is being used to prop Katie and Chris.

Gosh, THIS. In fact, I wrote the very same thing here.

CHANDLER BING = SO MUCH LOVE<3 BEST, MOST AWESOME AND HILARIOUS FRIEND OF THEM ALL!

Sing it, sista!

I’m a HARDCORE F.R.I.E.N.D.S. fan<3!

It's, hands down, my all-time favourite tv show. I'm actually (slowly) re-watching the whole series and I suspect I will be relying on it A LOT to cheer myself up after next week.

Jake also seems to agree with some people that it was “unethical” for Reid to pursue a relationship with Luke

Yeah, I usually like Jake quite a lot, but he should do himself a favour and just STFU about LuRe.

I used to like Noah, but every time he’s on now, he ruins whatever I used to like about him.

THIS, TIMES 1 GAZILLION.

Oh, you dirty minded girl, you!

me_and_thee: corrupting the youth of the world since 2010. XD

Backstreet Boys, huh XD!?

Er, yeah. At least pre-2009 BSB.

I have one of their videos to thank for my fascination with wet (shirtless) men.

Oh, Quit Playin' Games video, you brought so much joy into the world, haha!

Little six-year-old-me fangirled those boys so hard!

I fangirled them real hard up to last year and I've shipped Nick/Kevin (though the latter is not in the group anymore) for 7 years. ^^''

I believe you, BB ;)

Oh, right, I keep forgetting I've actually posted a picture of myself over @ lure_atwt! *facepalm*

I downloaded the damn makelivetv plugin and even though the live stream works just fine now

Same here. .:crosses fingers for next week:.

Jake also seems to agree with some people that it was “unethical” for Reid to pursue a relationship with Luke… .:double facepalm:. Just like how Noah seems to conveniently forget that they broke up in March and Luke and Reid didn’t officially became a couple until July 14th. And I used to like Noah, but every time he’s on now, he ruins whatever I used to like about him.

And, well, not that they seem to give a shit, but it's certainly going to reflect poorly on TPTB, the way I see it.
I think that whatever ending they go for, will reflect poorly on TPTB anyway. I am losing faith in TPTB. The way the recent LuRe scenes have been about propping Chris and Katie and the constant cockblocking; I just can’t take it anymore and I’m getting more pissed off about it with each passing day XD. WE ONLY HAVE 11 EPISODES LEFT, DAMNIT!!!!!

Noah should just SUCK IT.
A privilege that would probably be wasted on him, unlike Reid. XP XP XP [/hussy]
