Oy, aging

[roxy]

I was going to post about how while it's nice that everyone is happy about s11, it kind of irritates me too, but I read that post and decided to delete it because I already complained about stuff in my last post and I thought, "roxy, do you want to gain a reputation as a crabby old bitch who only posts to complain about shit?" and I thought, again to myself, probably not. I would rather be known as the happy, carefree spirit that I am...is that laughing? Am I hearing laughing?

(busting out an old school icon for this--younger days, lol!)

Hee, I'm curious so I'll bite. Why does it irritate you?

I've seen lots of people both venting about and defending the actors and the show of late, and you know.. of course you're allowed to post what you want on your journal.

Because I've been at this level of love all along, and I feel like folks are hopping back on the bandwagon, like it's okay to like Show again because it's "better now." Only I was probably uglier with it in my original post and I don't need to barf out that kind of negativity--I save that for PMs behind the scenes. ;D

I can understand that viewpoint, and it's great that you've felt that level of love all along <3 I've certainly had my issues with the show, but I try to keep most of that to emails and PMs myself. I'll always have a special place in my heart for the boys and this show no matter what happens.

I try to look at some people jumping back on the bandwagon as a positive thing. I've been reading lots of older fics lately, and it's been depressing seeing how much the fandom has shrank and how the squeeing has died down. So I'm all for people having a reason to come back and squee. The more, the merrier.

Me too, with the people getting excited, and in the long run, anything that hopefully leads to good, thoughtful fic, is a good thing. :)
