To quote the Mask, "Somebody stop me." Because I cannot, cannot stop going to the TWOP forums, and they are full of stupid. Things I've learnt today?

a. House is an emo!cutter
b. House is an evil criminal.
c. House is a JUNKIE. JUNKIE, I'm telling you. What is this pain you speak of?
d. Wilson was, once upon a time, a light and fluffy and adorable bunny. Curse you, David Shore, for destroying him forever.
e. Cuddy is a doormat. And oh, she also doesn't know how to run the hospital. Because House *is* the entire hospital, don't you know?
f. Wilson and Cuddy have ABANDONED House. ABANDONED HIM. HE'S A POOR ABANDONED W00BIE.
g. This episode was full of Ham.

I keep going there, because there *are* sane people out there. Clever, sane people who say awesome things. But most of them - God. It's like watching a trainwreck, and I keep reading the threads, even though I have work to do and fic to finish.

That's the way it is at any fannish forum, alas. The stupid usuall far outweighs the awesome. *shakes head*

Their recaps are great, though. I really enjoy reading them.

I've pretty much sworn off the forums for that show, because of the knee-jerk reactions. In general, I avoid big fannish forums (the only exception is TWoP's X-files forum, which is awesome, though I didn't frequent it while the show was on the air).

I love the recaps though.

I rarely go to TWOP because I find the pages always load really slowly for me, but now I'm glad I don't!

I watched the episode in question last night, and I think everyone's overreacting to the point of being truly silly. I enjoyed the ep quite a bit and thought it was a great opportunity for all of the cast to really stretch their acting chops.

What did House say to that bulimic lady? "You probably listen to the same Indigo Girls song while you do it"?

I wonder what song House has on repeat while he cuts himself because no one truly understands his pain.

... *snicker*

I understand the allure of the traffic accident -- there must be a place on the human genome for rubbernecking, since it seems to be a universal attribute. Which explains TWOP.

But yes, some people are pretty damn dim.

LOL @ TWOP.

Right, House has been abandoned. Because all the poor dear ever wanted was friends at his side. :P

He did, you know. Just because he doesn't *say* it doesn't mean he doesn't *want* it...

Dear God. The insanity out there. Just when the discussion was turning to an interesting direction, we have yet another slew of idiots moaning about abandonment and pseuicide. *headdesks*

But there are some smart people out there. They're the reason I keep going back.

The TWOP House recaps are actually very good (and I love that the recapper loves Cuddy). The only thing that annoys me is the emphasis on House's junkieness - I'm not sure how far she does it seriously, but the fen over there sure take it seriously.

Oh yes, they are. A must for TV-deprived foreigners like us, especially when the episode hasn't downloaded yet.
