Rpmaluki and I have had an ongoing discussion about Nick/Adalind for some time now, and while our positions are as opposite as they are adamant we haven’t needed to disrespect each other’s opinion in order to advance our debate. That kind of behavior doesn’t add to the discussion, it disrespects the participants and the purpose of the forum. A person isn’t right when they agree with us and wrong when they disagree with us. If everyone is expected to take a singular approach to the show and characters there really isn’t a need for a place to discuss a predetermined consensus.
Question for you, Robyn. In your comment about disrespectful behavior. Are you referring to one contributor, complaining of other contributors going back rehashing same old stuff just to provoke? After they were the ones doing the exact same thing they were pointing fingers at others? By going back and replying to a 3 or 4 months old thread? For the exact same reason, they were accusing others. Rehashing old arguments to provoke like “Stockholm Syndrome”. See Post # 22 , under the topic; Bree Turner Claire Coffee interview Adalinds powers.
Better yet, that same contributor bitching about topics being taken off subject when posted proof was exactly what they were doing, skewing the topic?
Take this last subject matter on this thread about Nick sleeping with Adalind and not telling her “I love you”. As I recall, Nick was sleeping in the room, outside Adalind’s bedroom in the fome. Soon after they moved in that place, one night, Adalind asked Nick to sleep in her ben, not for sex but for a comment she made. Something in the line of; “I know that, what ever comes in through that door, you will kill it.
How does a request for Adalind's request for Nick to sleep in her bed for safety, becomes the fulfillment of that request, using her? There was no sex in the beginning of the;” Sleeping Together”. How does that merit a “I love you” statement prior to him sleeping with next to her? How is that, Nick taking advantage of her. Even if he was having sex with her before he told her, he was also in love with her? When was it ever a pre-requisite for anyone on this show to have sex? Is stating what falsely happen on the screen also constitute as an insult?
We all watched the same show. Are these also examples of insults, or just opinions?
You know you are OLD, when you see the Slide Ruler you used in college selling in an ANTIQUE SHOP!!
