Kripke apologized for "Bugs." And the writers practically called themselves little better than penthouse forum writers. And Sera's joke about the show being a cult hit when someone got the tattoo, and the boys using their actual tattoos to prove that they're...

Ah! The meta-funny! The meta-thinky! And it worked as an intense, dramatic story, too.

I am such a happy fangirl right now.

They were dissing us, but they were dissing themselves too (the "prophet" is a half-crazed, tired, boozed-out shut-in) and the digs at "Bugs" ("You guess had to go through the bugs?") and "Route 666" ("Racist truck"). LOL It's all in the absurdity of fandom and sometimes the writing process itself.

I loved the great confabulation of mockery going on. It was funny, and it felt like one big huge in-joke with the fans.

*cheerleads for Kripke*

I really got a kick out of this. I grinned through most of it. "I am the prophet CHUCK! " How funny is that? You gotta love when the writers make fun at themselves and us too. That is ok, I can laugh at myself and do most of the time.

And "You should have seen Luke." *glee* The writers had a ball, and it showed. I had a ball, too.

OMG! Too cool.

I loved the part when the girl was going thru all the boys traumas, especially about Dean crying.

Isn't there a real Simpatico! I remember her name. All the cracks on fandom, especially the complaining fans. And slash! "They do know we're brothers, right? Bwah!

The prophet Chuck! Must watch again ASAP.

I loved when she said she didn't want any smart-ass article making fun of her boys. Fan protectiveness of characters, wheee!

Yeah, there was a real simpatico on the TWOP boards. I don't know whether she ever said anything about storylines being craptastic, though. *shrug*

"You should have seen Luke." Oh, Cas, is that a sense of humor I'm hearing?

Dudes, we was roasted! It was AWESOME! Because they roasted themselves, TOO! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

There was some actual thinky good stuff, too, but yeah. This was good stuff. Heh. MOAR, PLEEZE!

I've seen a few people who were uncomfortable or outright offended by the fan roasting. I can understand the feeling of being "outed," but it was done with such self-referential affection that I just...

Nah. I'm still laughing.

erinrua April 3 2009, 23:42:30 UTC

LOL, we were totally outed, but seriously, it don't take much. We're not very easy to miss! Hee!

*gleeface* I mean, really. We're all here talking about ghosts and demon blood and suicidal teddy bears. Of course it's ridiculous. Of course we should be laughing.

Yay, Kripke!
