Lost 6x09

I just got to the bit in book 8 of The Dresden Files where Bob gives Harry this nice, concise, clear explanation of what would happen if the Gatekeeper created a paradox by warning Harry about something that happened in the future, and Harry basically went "...idgi."

...Harry would totally be one of those people who don't get "what happened happened" on Lost.

Speaking of Lost, I don't even fucking know what to say about this week's episode. I just have so many feelings thoughts, and no idea how to explain them. I mean, the difference between flashback!Jacob and now!Jacob, and other spoilerier things.

What I do know, however, is that I have to stop fucking saying "This is going to be fucking hilarious" because, let me tell you internet, the fucking hilarious is ALWAYS interspersed with TONS of DDDDDDDDDD: when I say that.

Seriously, I just. Oh internet, that episode. :(

I AM STILL LOLING AT HIS LITTLE MAD GIGGLE WHEN THEY ASK HIM WHAT TO DO.

[identity profile] the-wanlorn.livejournal.com 2010-03-24 04:58 pm (UTC)(link)
INOOOOOOOOOOO. OH RICHARD, YOU HAVE SNAPPED. :D: And I love how everyone else was just like "..." at it, too.

AND BEN WAS JUST '...WELL THIS IS GOING TO BE HILARIOUS :('

MAYBE YOU JUST NEED TO POUR THE SARCASM ON LIKE HE DOES?

♥♥♥♥BEN♥♥♥♥

I'm also still kind of loling at Jacob just whaling on Richard.

[identity profile] shadowkitty.livejournal.com 2010-03-24 05:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Inooooooooooo. And then just dunking him in the water until he shut up.

[identity profile] the-wanlorn.livejournal.com 2010-03-24 05:13 pm (UTC)(link)
INOOOOOOOOOO. LIKE, WATERBOARDING ISN'T FUNNY AND YET :(

But man :( Jacob whaling on Richard :( and not doing anything to Ben :(

[identity profile] shadowkitty.livejournal.com 2010-03-24 05:14 pm (UTC)(link)
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD: he rly didn't think he was going to stab him :(

BUT LOL HE TOTALLY THOUGHT RICHARD WOULD.

[identity profile] the-wanlorn.livejournal.com 2010-03-24 06:05 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL INORITE? RICHARD: LESS TRUSTWORTHY THAN BEN, IN JACOB'S EYES.

[identity profile] shadowkitty.livejournal.com 2010-03-24 06:07 pm (UTC)(link)
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL that's just unfortunate.

[identity profile] the-wanlorn.livejournal.com 2010-03-24 06:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Do you think that finding out that Jacob didn't think he would do it, do you think that Ben keeps remembering that and going DDDDDDDD: at himself?

[identity profile] shadowkitty.livejournal.com 2010-03-24 06:10 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL so many things Ben has been going DDDDDDDD: at himself for recently. I think he's lost count.

[identity profile] the-wanlorn.livejournal.com 2010-03-24 06:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Ben is just constantly DDDDDDDDDD: at himself right now.

...:(

Harry Dresden: Not the Sharpest Tool in the Shed.

That said, I hate time travel paradoxes because make my head hurt and I often don't get them. Although for some reason PTerry's don't bother me as much. Trousers of Time!

[identity profile] the-wanlorn.livejournal.com 2010-03-24 05:14 pm (UTC)(link)
inorite? It just makes me lol and lol and lol how dumb he is, and how purposeful it is. Oh god, Harry's the brawn in the wizarding world, ahahahahahahaha.

OH WAIT PLEASE DD ON YOUR THOUGHTS ON JACOB THROUGHOUT TIME AND SPACE?

Ricardo, I cried for you. ;___;

I also found this really weirdly hot? Like I think that my kink is possibly not okay? Richard/Jacob/MIB is basically my OTP now, though. Like, really. What the fuck else are they going to do on that island.

Ugh, I don't even KNOW. LIKE, his serenity and general :) :) :)ness is either a learned thing, or because he's no longer crankily fucking around the island with just Esau for company; now he's got Richard to entertain him. And, IDK. I JUST DON'T KNOW MY HEAD IS FULL OF ~THOUGHTS~ BUT MY FINGERS ARE LIKE "FUCK YOUUUUUUUU"

Also: weirdest baptism ever.

[identity profile] howtoswim.livejournal.com 2010-03-25 02:13 pm (UTC)(link)
I TOTALLY ALWAYS FORGET ABOUT HOW MUCH OF A BAPTISM THAT WAS. UGH. BECAUSE OMG YYYY. Also! Yes, I know what you mean, and I HATE his serenity, so seeing him fucking beat the shit out of and almost drown Richard was kind of nice. I THINK I MIGHT BE A SOCIOPATH, BECAUSE I REALLY JUST WANT THIS IN-DEPTH EXPLORATION OF THE RELATIONSHIP OF THESE TWO (AND NOW THREE) DUDES. Also because I feel like ~*~*~within that relationship lies the key to the mysteries of the island~*~*~?

IDEK. I liked that episode a lot, and I am pretty sure that a lot of the reason I liked it was the minimal amount of whiny plane crash victims. Although I do wish there had been moar Ben Linus, but that is basically the story of my life.

[identity profile] the-wanlorn.livejournal.com 2010-03-25 02:16 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL INORITE? The "Oh, this will be good." was A+ but JUST NOT ENOUGH BEN.

idk, I love his serenity because it's clearly masking his complete lol aspie-ness. I mean, his talent for saying the wrong thing at the wrong time couple with a "...wait, why are you mad? What did I say?" face. IDK.

[identity profile] howtoswim.livejournal.com 2010-03-25 02:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe it is the lol aspieness that is annoying me? IDEK. I just want him to stop being vague and open his eyes >:( >:( (but I think I am also pretty much on team smokey, so that may explain a few things?)

I didn't even remember that Ben was in it at all! For a while I forgot the entire opening scene. BENJAMIN LINUS. How are you so super? I think I need to rewatch the entire show this summer in order to fully understand his brilliance (lol skipped seasons two through four)

[identity profile] the-wanlorn.livejournal.com 2010-03-25 02:24 pm (UTC)(link)
OH MY GOD SERIOUSLY? SEASON FOUR WAS A THING OF BRILLIANCE. THE SEASON THREE BITS WITH BEN WERE PRETTY GREAT TOO.

[identity profile] howtoswim.livejournal.com 2010-03-25 02:26 pm (UTC)(link)
LOOK I AM AWARE OF MY PROBLEMS

IT IS JUST THAT I DID NOT SEEM TO NEED TO KNOW MUCH ABOUT THOSE SEASONS IN ORDER TO APPRECIATE THE BITS OF SEASON FIVE I SAW

I SAW THE ONE WITH THE DRIVING AROUND IN THE DHARMA VANS AND ALSO I SAW JACK BEING ALL WE HAVE TO GO BACK FOR WHATEVER THAT'S WORTH?

[identity profile] the-wanlorn.livejournal.com 2010-03-25 02:26 pm (UTC)(link)
SO WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS, YOU SAW THE SHITTY BITS?

[identity profile] howtoswim.livejournal.com 2010-03-25 02:29 pm (UTC)(link)
LOOK I LIKED THE DHARMA VAN OKAY

IT WAS A FLEETING MOMENT OF JOY IN ALL THESE CHARACTERS' AWFUL, AWFUL LIVES

AND JACK, WELL, I'D RATHER NOT DISCUSS IT. I THINK MY FRAND MADE ME WATCH IT BECAUSE I MADE HER WATCH AN EPISODE OF THE X-FILES IN WHICH MULDER WEPT INTO SCULLY'S UNCONSCIOUS ARM OR SOMETHING. THERE WAS A PARALLEL OF FAILY DUDES WEEPING.

[identity profile] the-wanlorn.livejournal.com 2010-03-25 02:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay, yeah, I guess the Dharma van bit was actually super lolzy and great.

BUT STILL. JACK. FOR SHAME.

[identity profile] howtoswim.livejournal.com 2010-03-25 02:35 pm (UTC)(link)
SHAME IS THE ONLY WORD I THINK OF WHEN I THINK OF JACK SHEPHERD (SHEPHARD?), NGL.

[identity profile] the-wanlorn.livejournal.com 2010-03-25 02:39 pm (UTC)(link)
lol Shephard. I AM KIND OF D: THAT I KNOW THAT.
