Awesome! I hadn't realized she'd locked it, but I'm glad it's available again. It's been a while since I revisited it. *refrains from the distraction* The only problem I had with this post is how much she calls the show stupid. I just. *hrmph*

Of course, now I'm trying to remember if [livejournal.com profile] bookshop is the one that wrote the post about the progression of their courtship based on the courtship rules found in a psychology book. *ponders*

The one post that's gone now that I wish were still around is "Czech Psychology and Tabula Rasa Meta", which used to be on the [livejournal.com profile] welovezelenka community. OMG that post and its ensuing commentary just floored me. It was all Zelenka-related, and it was made of SO MUCH WIN.

They are simultaneously the most ridiculously dorky, aging, unattractive men, and the most inexplicably hot. And they have the, like, most RIDICULOUSLY OBNOXIOUS PERSONALITIES, except for how they're simultaneously COMPLETELY ADORKABLE and endearing

This is like the best way of describing McShep ever, even if I've got to agree with hoktauri about all the unnessicary down-putting of the series.

I love this post more than words, but I concur with everyone else in this post who said the downputting of the show bothered them. I remember the first time I read it feeling...not just defensive of the show, but like I was being told WHAT to like and that if I did like the show, I was clearly inferior. I adore bookshop for so many reasons, but I also think she has a tendency to find fault with EVERYTHING and instead of acknowledging that everything is flawed, she focuses on what she doesn't like about it. I CLEARLY HAVE A LOT OF FEELINGS ABOUT THIS.

I am strongly considering an SGA rewatch after I finish Buffy and Lost. STOP ME, MELISSA.

Thanks for digging this up.

nihilvanum's words:

my dear
the problem is that
you love him so much
you would allow him
to drag you all the way to hell
if it meant you could
hold his hand
on the way down
