What do you mean, I forgot about Towel Day? Gah, I suck. I got all caught up in the rememberance of the People’s Republic of Treacle Mine Road and it slipped my mind.
Sooo, Lost season finale. First of all, EEEEEEEE, CHARLIE/CLAIRE OMG OTP LIEK WOAH. *coughs* Secondly, WHY IS EVERYONE A MORON?
Charlie: Stupid! Stupid stupid stupid!
Sayid: Jerk!
Kate: Darwin Awards candidate1. Why was she running around and jumping when she was under the impression she was wearing a backpack full of exceedingly tempermental dynamite?
Jack: Chauvanist! Why couldn’t you have given Kate the dynamite and saved us all a lot of irritation?
Professor Redshirt: Haw haw! That was the funniest example of spontaneous human combustion since Monty Python.
Sawyer: Looked like a dork with his hair pulled back. But boys that sing are awesome, so yay.
Hurley: Awww, I could never be upset at you! SO MUCH HURLEYLOVE.
Locke: Also great. BZZZT! *loves* But every so often, you did this creepy smile that made you look like you were going to molest someone. Stop doing that.
Claire: Not stupid, but please, get your priorities in order! You give him a peck on the cheek for making you a Dutch baby carrier, but only a hug when he saves your infant son from a psychopathic French woman intent on trading said son to a bunch of murdering savages? The boy deserves mad smoochies. Make him forget all about the Smackfarthing!
And I was exceptionally cross at Sayid, as he made me–for the briefest of instants–think that Sayid/Shannon was sweet. But then the camera went back to her and I was like “oh.” You don’t just forgive stuff like that. Also: maiming Charlie and taking him unnecessarily through the den of Smackfarthing. But a bit of my grudge against Shannon was lifted when she didn’t resort to feminine wiles to get help with all the stuff she had to carry, and she instead told Sayid that she had everything under control when he offered to help her, so my intense loathing of Shannon has slightly diminished. And then, Sayid has his awesome moments where I can’t help but love him and all is forgiven. “Do not hit me again” and similar. Yeah, Sayid is awesome. MASSIVE Sayid love.
As for Charlie, I have to quote lots42: “Burning his last bit of drugs got him his guitar. Maybe he’s hoping if he burns the new batch, he’ll get a shiny new bicycle and a hot bikini for Claire.” Humorous observations like this are the only thing preventing me from smacking the boy upside the head. And in the end, Danielle did the right thing and gave up Turniphead without a fight. Charlie really didn’t need to tear into her like that.
Also, “They were coming for the boy.” Man, I watch 13 episodes of Wonderfalls and I didn’t notice that it could just as easily be referring to Walt as Turniphead. I fail at life television.
So how many Jossed Charlie/Claire fanfiction writers will suddenly decide that Aaron is Charlie’s middle name? XD
When did Sawyer call Michael and Jin “Han” and “Chewie”? How did I miss something like that?
What was in Sawyer’s shirt that freaked Michael out? The gun, presumably?
1And speaking of the Darwin Awards, I probably shouldn’t be laughing about this, but you have to admit, it’s hilarious.
