    Happy 1000th, and maybe it sucks that we got here as quickly as we did for the reasons we did, but it’s also really awesome that we’re here for each other.

    OMGOSH HAPPY 1000 PAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I hate the way we got here)

    I hate the way we got here too but HOLY CRAP, aside from the obvious sadness the last 100 pages, the friendships, support, and love that is also everywhere throughout these pages makes my heart happy. Love you all to pieces and I’m glad we all have each other to lean on right now. 🙂

    HAPPY 1000th PAGE!!!!!!!! *hugs thread and gives out cookies* 😀

    BTW-It’s great that some fans still have hope

    It’s not so much that I have hope exactly, it’s more like my cynicism is so extreme that it’s gone full circle and I just can’t believe any part of the situation is believable in any way.

    The death coupled with the picture of Rumple and Zelena from 318 pretty much makes my cynicism go: well of course this is all real. They have no idea what they’re doing anymore.

    Yeah, I guess cynicism is a better word for it. It does reek of being written like some bad fan fiction story right now but I have no trust in these guys to do anything right anymore. I’m done hoping for the good guys to actually get written like they were back in S1 (smart, aware, bada$$, etc) and expect the villains to get all the happy endings.

    Yay for 1000 pages! I’m going to cling to this little happy (well, sort of happy) corner of the forums for dear life and hope we can keep adding pages by the day. Don’t let this die!

    – Do you have a link to that article you were talking about? I don’t know what you’re twitter handle is, so I’m not sure how to find it. I’m really curious to read it.

    I was doing a bit of research to try and explain perhaps why attractive actors seem to get all the fan adoration while so-called “average Joes” seem to get less love. I think it can be explained by a cognitive bias known as the Halo Effect. Essentially, attractive people are considered by many to be more intelligent and kind than non-attractive people. It’s sad but true. This concept has been demonstrated in numerous psychological and statistical tests. That could help to explain how a kindhearted man who made one critical misjudgment seems to have become the sacrificial lamb of everyone else’s sins on the show, while so-called villains who have committed actual crimes go unpunished and then get rewarded, despite lack of true contrition or remorse.  That is what the show has become. Protagonists get written as either dumb or rebranded “villains” while actual villains get rebranded as misunderstood yet sympathetic. That’s postmodernity for you I suppose. I’m not opposed to redemption at all. I applauded Regina and Rumple in 3×11 for making truly selfless acts. Yet, when the story then turns around and nullifies Rumple’s sacrifice by killing his son I have to frown at the the senselessness of it all.
