What’s this you’ve said to me, my good friend? Ill have you know I graduated top of my class in conflict resolution, and Ive been involved in numerous friendly discussions, and I have over 300 confirmed friends. I am trained in polite discussions and I’m the top mediator in the entire neighborhood. You are worth more to me than just another target. I hope we will come to have a friendship never before seen on this Earth. Don’t you think you might be hurting someone’s feelings saying that over the internet? Think about it, my friend. As we speak I am contacting my good friends across the USA and your P.O. box is being traced right now so you better prepare for the greeting cards, friend. The greeting cards that help you with your hate. You should look forward to it, friend. I can be anywhere, anytime for you, and I can calm you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my chess set. Not only am I extensively trained in conflict resolution, but I have access to the entire group of my friends and I will use them to their full extent to start our new friendship. If only you could have known what kindness and love your little comment was about to bring you, maybe you would have reached out sooner. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now we get to start a new friendship, you unique person. I will give you gifts and you might have a hard time keeping up. You’re finally living, friend.
So, I'm not defending Moffat and his shitty tastes here, but were in sherlock does a good guy get away with murder? It's a genuine question cause I'm kinda drawing a blank here. Was it that one time Sherlock shot that rich asshole in the head. Like, was it the guy that had that library mind palace and was ridiculously evil? Personally, I wouldn't judge someone for shooting them in the head, but I guess you don't get a lot of people as evil as them in real life so the situation was a bit silly.
Also Mary. I don’t give a shit if she was ‘reformed’. She was not punished for her crimes, just because she decided to be ‘good’ suddenly and lie about who she is doesn’t mean those killings never happened.
Also Watson who shot someone in an earlier episode too.
Just no, don’t excuse murder just because ‘it’s the bad guy’. In Sherlock Holmes of all things that’s even more vital, I feel.
And they were supposedly going to punish him for his murder but nah, he’s so smart and suddenly Moriarty therefor it’s kay.
This is part of why his writing sucks, the bad guys are so two dimensional that you don’t even consider them on level with human beings, so you don’t care if they get killed.
The more I think about how Moffat writes all his women with the same formula, the angrier I get
All main/significant Moffat women that I can think of do this:
Over time they become selfish after being ‘strong sassy sexually confident’ women.
They all start out in a similar way. They’re confident, flirtatious, highly sexual, and able to outsmart the guy, but despite that they are totally emotional and weak when it comes to said guys which ultimately destroys who they initially were.
They become dishonest, hypocritical, and ultimately unable to function solo despite how they’re always introduced as the strong independant woman who doesn’t need a man.
The moment a man comes in to the picture, it’s a Moffat woman’s job to prove herself worthy or superior to these supermen (sherlock, the doctor)
Amy, Clara, Irene, Riversong, Mary
Think about it.
They all follow the same exact pattern.
This guy can’t write anything outside of the same formula, and it works maybe once, like in “The Girl in the Fireplace” with Madam de Pompadour. But guess what, she’s still the same way and the only reason she didn’t go down the path of dishonest flip-floppy emotional behavior was because she was spared being part of the series by being killed. Still, ultimately, she was relying on a man despite her apparent confidence.
Happy 20th Anniversary to one of the biggest inspirations of my life, it’s hard to imagine there was a me before you, Pokémon.
Though pikachu is in fact my favorite, he also represents the franchise as a whole here, so please imagine this with your own favorite pokemon, as you reminisce and celebrate today’s momentous occasion.
