Someone please help me with Facebook + Korra thoughts

[kyogres]

I rarely use Facebook, but when I do, my friend feed is always cluttered with status updates from "friends" I don't care about. Mostly people who went to high school with me. I never talked to these people, but I accepted their friend requests anyway because denying them seemed rude.

Anyway, I decided to change my preferences so I would only see

Comments

I hardly use Facebook anymore. Oops. I guess it's Down arrow (was that always there?) > Account Settings > Notifications

I was actually looking at gifs of Aang from today's episode, and the voice I heard in my head for him was much older. Sokka...I don't like when characters grow up and stop acting like themselves, but there is a time to be serious and even he should know that.

Mako is a master jerkbender. Asami is not your personal wallet/driver, but your ally and girlfriend and she has a lot going on.

When Tahno starts to recover mentally, he should face Amon. That would be lovely.

[kyogres]

Yeah, mine too. Aang's adult voice seems too high for me.

I can even understand where Mako is coming from, as someone who gets really confused every time romance pops into the equation. However, I do wish someone would call him out on it. At this point, I wouldn't blame Asami for dumping him.

That would be awesome, but sadly, I don't think it's going to happen... unless the equalists are still a major player in season 2, in which case it's a possibility.

I have next to no experience with that kind of relationship. He could use to talk to Asami about it. I'm not sure, but did he tell Bolin what to say if it came up? I hope not.

It feels like Mako is becoming more of a jerk while Korra is growing out of it. She's at least not openly jealous/weird with Asami anymore. Except in this episode he was Korra's perfect prince or something.

The Equalists disappearing completely in two episodes, unless there's a time skip, is a lot. Even if Amon is gone they might be like Team Rocket in GSC. A major player though? Nah.

Mako bugged me too. A lot. :\ I really hope Asami confronts him and dumps him and the moment he goes "YEAH KORRA TIME" they reveal that they're hooking up.

--er well. I do hope it's not just him dropping Asami and "winning" Korra. Egh.

As for how Korra escaped, she hooked the cloth from her armband through the bars at the top of the box and hung from it, so she wasn't in touch with any metal to conduct the electricity.

[kyogres]

Thanks for the explanation. That makes sense. That's what I thought she might have done, but I couldn't figure out if the box was tall enough for her to pull it off.

the 1 million emails is the reason i deleted my facebook account. :|

[kyogres]

The only reason I still have mine is because it's the only way 90% of my friends contact me. Even though I've given them my email and phone number.

[hooves]

I get SO CONFUSED by Facebook I just gave up trying to figure it out. I hate it sometimes. Stop changing the layout, ffs. All it does is confuse me!

[kyogres]

I hate it too, but deleting my account isn't an option because all of my friends use it. I am anxiously awaiting the day that Facebook will die and be replaced by a better social networking site.

I agree with you about Aang's voice. I liked Sokka's just fine, Toph's was a little strange but that probably just has to do with the fact that she's older, but Aang... doesn't seem too similar? I'm not sure exactly what I expected though.

I get the feeling that the whole "bloodbending outside of a full moon" thing will never get explained, and it bothers me. It was never explained why Combustion Man could bend the way that he did, and I see that it'll probably get the same treatment with Yakone and Tarrlok. I think Yakone and Tarrlok are meant to be the only people who can bloodbend outside of the full moon, but still an explanation would be nice.

Everyone kinda fawns over Mako but really I'm kinda tired of him? Like you said he's giving a lot of mixed signals and it's been going on since like ep 5 or so and it's getting a little old. Asami just needs to dump his ass. I was also hoping Bolin was still harboring feelings for Korra but from his dialog it doesn't sound like it...

[kyogres]

I think I expected Aang's voice to be deeper or something. It seemed too much like his kid voice to me.

Now that you mention it... yes, I think that's the reason I hated Combustion Man so much. Without an explanation, he seemed too much like a plot device and/or "Monster of the Week".

I'm tired of him too, and I loved him at first. I think it's all the love triangle shenanigans that ruined him for me. He was much more interesting when he focused on his own goals and on protecting his brother. I like Bolin/Korra, though I'm not sure I trust the writers to handle it correctly, after the disaster that is Mako/Asami/Korra.

Another thing that kinda bothered me about Aang was the comment about Toph's nickname for him. I feel like it was completely for the fans or something. Aang, if you're 40 years old, then you should know Toph well enough by now that she CAN'T STOP WON'T STOP calling you Twinkletoes

[kyogres]

I never thought of it that way, but you're right. It did seem kind of ooc for Aang to say that. Somehow, I doubt that he'd care that much.
