So... Apparently there's a new show coming out. (From the directors of LOST and The Strain, no less!) I'm excited. Are you guys?
On a less happy note, how many badfics should we expect? -

Another show that revels in its own inability to explain what the hell is going on. The heart soars.

She's clearly pretty excited about this. Don't be mean.

She's entitled to her opinion, y'know. by

Though she could have been less sarcastic, yes.

I read KittyEden's post as 'you shouldn't voice your opinion to the contrary, let them be excited'.

The post ended with 'Don't be mean' - that is, 'don't imply that Tigress is an idiot for wanting to watch this'. Which, uh, I'd hope you agree with?

Scape could have definitely been less sarcastic. But her opinion – "not another show that is too confusing for its own good" – is perfectly legit. Saying 'Tigeress is excited so don't be mean' sounds like 'shut up, Scape, don't be negative when someone's excited' to me. It should be said that I don't think that KittyEden was trying to shut Scape up or anything, just that her phrasing wasn't exactly stellar, either.

I'm afraid you rather came across as if you did. So now that everyone's phrasing has been critiqued and found wanting - shall we let this one lie? ^_~

Which is odd for me to do, because I don't really like tea.

Please refrain from wasting perfectly good tea (Earl Grey, hot). I'd rather much drink it, not have it thrown at my face. Thanks!
