No big, I remember you. ;)

Re: M/G shippers, I also agree that S3 pretty much closed the door on romantic M/G (not to mention that the writers have repeatedly stressed that they have no intention of doing intra-team romance, although that the rate the show is going these days, I don't trust anything they say anymore). But hating on a character just because they blocks one's OTP has always struck me as petty and entitled, like "If my OTP can't happen, then NO OTHER PAIRINGS EVER CAN." And if said OTP isn't canon or likely to be canon, that makes it even more pointless.

He's comic relief, and while I appreciate all that I can get of that for CM, sometimes I find it a little strained.

I see what you're saying here, but I guess I just went with it because let's face it--CM takes a lot of liberties when it comes to realism. There's a certain point to which I can suspend disbelief, and I think Kevin's behavior falls within that range. There are other things that fall outside that range (like say, Garcia having a flourishing acting career ( ... )

I frankly have to applaud you for still being able to participate in this fandom without getting rage blackouts or flinching from the screams as your last surviving brain cells commit suicide.

I too got to give Infinitlight props for still being with this faildom. I wonder how long has she been in it for? Jeez I was in it for several years and it turned me now into raging haterade who if you can find anyone out there who has more of a passionate hate towards the CM franchise, I'll like to meet them.

CM fandom is weird b/c it's not that it's particularly wanky so much as full of stupid, blindness, and general fail. Like it's the only fandom in which I've repeatedly had the experience of actually wondering wtf show these people are watching.Totally. The faildom's creation of Crappy Poser aka Worthless Impostor B!tch would be more than enough for me to hate it, but no. Faildom has to show me they have more endless amounts of fail where that one came from ( ... )

Toward the end of season 3, although I do tend to dip in and out of the fandom. I don't really do much in fandom, though, unlike y'all--mostly I just crash into meta posts and occasionally tell people that Elle is awesome.

lol I haven't met anyone more rage-filled yet, but if they exist I'd like to meet them too.

More Kevin would make my heart happy. And I think it's totally a BTVS thing.
