Huh? Buh?? What's wrong with your demeanor on TWoP? You're always articulate and write smart, well-reasoned posts. There are those who occasionally make life on the SVU boards intolerable, but you're not one of 'em.
And please don't shoot me, but thanks to TWoP, I am so fucking over Stephanie March. They just never... shut up... about her. Bore, bore, bore.
Aww, thanks for saying that. You are truly a Noble, er, Rot :) I think to people who don't like Stabler, I can seem like an knee-jerk defender. I've also been accused of repeating myself. Which is true, probably. It's partially the nature of TWoP, and partially the result of USA showing the same episodes over and over again. Oh, and you know, partially because of my contentious nature.
And please don't shoot me, but thanks to TWoP, I am so fucking over Stephanie March. They just never... shut up... about her. Bore, bore, bore. Oh no - have you turned into a Casey fan, too? The world's gone mad, I tell you

I'm sorry if anything I wrote hurt your feelings. I can try to butter you up & pretend it was all in fun, but that's not fair to you. I've been on your side of this (though not online); I know it hurts, and I know that it'll sound like I'm trying to rewrite things. The day I posted was a shitty day for me, and in all fairness I didn't really know you back then, though I realize that doesn't excuse anything

Very cool of you to reply to this - I'll admit that yours was one of the comments on that post that surprised me. As I said, it was from a month ago, and since I can barely remember what I had for dinner last night, I don't remember what was happening on TWoP at the time. I'll email you about the particulars, but I'm happy to chalk it all up to misunderstanding on both sides

I think one problem with the TWoP thread is that the split into sub-forums coincided with what a lot of people feel is the downslide of the show.
Exactly, though I like the sub-forums. My first venture to TWoP was on a recapped show, so it took time to adjust to the single thread. Posting in the old thread always felt like interrupting a conversation.
Don't worry about your nephew; he'll come around. Another cousin recently figured out that he'd rather spend quality time with me than get piles of gifts from his other cousins. Almost makes up for his little sister's "favorite cousin" remark.
1. Dude, I know that if my oldest nephew didn't say I was his favorite aunt, I would be upset as well. I could care less about the younger one, but, yeah, devastated.
2.Fuck what people think, say what you feel. If they don't like it let them move along. As far as the overall status of SVU boards, I think the Mariska worshippers and the rabid E/O fans have done the most damage. Your defense of Elliot is needed and your push for the A/E ship is welcome, at least to me. I like the changes at TWoP, I just don't post as much. And I don't know all the newbies. And I think my snarker broke.

1. Dude, I know that if my oldest nephew didn't say I was his favorite aunt, I would be upset as well. I could care less about the younger one, but, yeah, devastated. Ha! That made me laugh. And made me happy to know I'm not alone in my reaction. I have made all sorts of rationalizations for it, but really, it just made me sad. And moreover, I didn't need to know about it! This is the kind of information that should be kept between the favorite aunt and the mother! Jeez.
And I think my snarker broke. Ouch! I don't think there's any kind of surgery that can fix it - just rest and recuperation :)
I feel like I'm a broken record on my own LJ< because I know you've propped me up on the Stabler defense front before. I do appreciate hearing it, though. And I swear, I do try to be entertaining on TWoP. But I guess for some people, I just come off as strident or shrill. Oh well - you say fuck 'em, so I'm going with that!
"He is a boil on the ass of humanity"Hee - I love that line. And it is sadly so fitting. But it's much

1. This situation is actually similar to something I've gone through, except I've been "the favored aunt" --my oldest niece has always said that about me, even though I live much farther away than my sister, the "other" aunt. My sister has always been a good sport about it, though, and hasn't taken it too seriously. And honestly, in our situation it's become more of a joke, an opportunity for teasing among the three of us. Your nephew is pretty young, and to him having an aunt in Europe may sound all sorts of cool and exotic. I'm sure if he really thought about it, and knew that you'd been hurt by the comment, he'd change his mind. He's young, he'll come to his senses; when you're 12, nothing is written in stone

1. My sister said the same thing - that she's cooler because she's not around all the time. I don't actually have that much of a problem with the concept, though it did break my heart a little bit. I just question the need for my sister to tell me. In the immortal words of Albert Brooks in Broadcast News (after William Hurt asks what you do when all your dreams are realized): "Keep it to yourself!"
2. Yes, we all have a freak flag to fly, and Stabler is yours.Like my own personal freak - yay! Oh, wait, you mean the flag :) (Getting images of a very sexy logo

BTW, everything's cool.
