Lois picspam #1

[bop_radar]

So I decided it was ridiculous that I'd never made a Lois picspam post. After all, I adore her, and she's purty, and I don't really need any excuse to natter away about how great she is. So I went off to collect some pics... that was two weeks' ago. *headdesk* Now I have 200 caps and don't know where to start. *lol

LOIS! I haven't been online but wow, what a great thing to see the first time back! LOIS!

Fantabulous - both Lois and picspam! :D
Come July and I can finally catch up with S6.

YAY for Lois love!

I love how there is no off limits for her. It's both *facepalm* inducing and massively adorable.

Definitely! It's a great combo. *G*

Clark has his fair share of phallic symbols (many of them provided by Lex). Lois likes to play with them. 'Nuff said.

Nuff said? You're such a tease.

Anyway, I haven't seen much of Lois, but I like her, and after this picspam I'm ready to adore her. And that's not just the cold medicine talking. Yay!

I will brainwash you into liking her. ;-) Look how cutely dorky she is in the morning! *points at icon*

I hope you feel better soon! *g*

I don't even watch Smallville but I looked at this anyways. Maybe because I've been in withdrawal from picspams.

I found myself very intrigued by the following line you wrote:

Well, that's classic self-sabotage. She doesn't yet have ambition driving her, but she also can't deal with trying to do something and coming off second best, so she takes it all casually--doesn't matter if she screws up.

Self-sabotage could be my middle name. And my parents are forever telling me I have no ambition, hence the reason I'm still in the "secretarial" bargaining unit after 7 years at my job.

Well I don't know you well enough to say, but that sounds like perfectionism and fear of failure--which go hand in hand for many people. I've been talking about this with a few friends recently, and there are a few ways fear of failure can manifest/hide itself:
- self-sabotage
- avoidance (not trying so you won't fail)
- control (obsessive compulsion about things, or other control issues)
- what we've termed 'externalisation' which is kind of throwing all the issues onto the outside world and discussing all the ways that other people are not measuring up.
Most people seem to use a combo with one or more predominating. This is all completely observation-based--I've no idea how professional psychology characterises this.

But yeah, Lois seems to fit that mould.
