7.20am and I’ve been up for over half an hour, because we’re supposed to go skiing. I barely even slept because I was not able to sleep because who the fucks get up before 7am when it’s a holiday anyway?
I am not amused
I can try? Though you should hold your horses anon, because this turned out to be a really long rant. Also: I’m not really good with arguing my point, but I gave it a shot, and it is what it is. (and sorry about the english, it’s not my first language)
Okay. Where to begin? First of all, I think this episode is so unfair to Sam. I mean, we all know he grew up being the kid who wanted to be normal, he ran away from his family to do so, he always strived for that common life. And Dean knew that. We all did. Sam didn’t become all about family until really late in his life. So the fact that memories in which he is achieving a normal life are good memories for him - that shouldn’t come as a surprise. Because that was how he felt at the time, and he can’t change that, no matter how much he’s changed himself. Those will forever be good memories for him. And of course, of course it hurt for Dean to see that with his own eyes, to really get hit with it smack over the face like that, but I still don’t think he would’ve taken it that hard, just because it’s Sam, and Sam has changed so fucking much.
There is zero doubt in my mind that if they would’ve stayed in heaven longer, then we would’ve seen a ton of Sam’s memories, involving Dean, that would’ve been happy. And I’m also a 100% sure that Sam has a ton of memories from his childhood that also involves Dean, because Dean has always been Sam’s whole life, so obviously Dean must be the reason for some of Sam’s favourite memories. So why couldn’t they have shown us that? But no, instead they decided to forget that Sam is a fucking great character who always wants to do good, who always tries to do his best, and made him out to be the worst guy in the world. Being unfair to Sam does not make me happy.
Basically, I feel like this whole episode is just a cheap shot from the writers, like they got stuck on how to move the story forward, and this was the solution. I disapprove of how they portrayed Sam so that they could justify Dean considering saying yes to Michael. Like the only way to get him to do that, was to totally fuck Sam over, when that fucking is unjust. I feel like they didn’t know how to make Dean say yes, and so they figured they just ruin the relationship between Sam/Dean a bit instead. Which totally pisses me off, and I don’t think Sam deserves it at all.
And then there’s the amulet being thrown away, of course, which I personally thought was ridiculous, and yet again another stab from the writers. I just don’t understand it, because it doesn’t make sense to me. Yes, Castiel said it was useless, and Dean had just been hurt from what he saw of Sam’s memories in Heaven, but somehow, I don’t think it would’ve been enough for him to throw it away. That amulet - he kept it his entire life. He always kept it, even when Sam left him for college, when Sam was lying to him, when Sam was out of control, when Sam was drinking demon blood, when Sam fucking left him to go with a demon, when Sam broke the final seal and let Lucifer out, Dean kept the amulet on. And I suppose you could argue that it was the last drop, that seeing how “Sam doesn’t care” would just be the last thing in the pile and Dean would have enough. And if you agree with that, then good for you. But I don’t. I don’t think it would’ve been the last drop. I don’t think Dean actually thinks that “Sam doesn’t care”, because he knows Sam does. And even if he, in a moment of heat, was a little unsure, that maybe he doubted that knowledge, I don’t think he would’ve thrown it away anyway. He would’ve been hurt, and maybe bitched a bit, and eventually he and Sam would’ve worked it out somehow, Sam would’ve explained that the memories he saw in Heaven was not the entire truth.
I dislike this episode because I feel like the writers are screwing with us. I feel like they got stuck, and they decided to fuck us (maybe just) me over in order to get the story going, and get what they want. I feel like this episode doesn’t do Sam justice and puts him in a really bad light for no reason at all, and I feel like the end of it is out of character for Dean. I feel like the writers had taken my heart, twisted in out of my chest, and then the amulet - then they were just having fun. Like they were stepping all over it and having a piñata party. And I don’t appreciate people stepping all over my characters and my TV-show heart when I cannot see a reason behind it.
So that is why I dislike this episode. And on that note, I would also like to say that it’s not a bad episode. It’s no Racist Truck. And also: I absolutely love the fireworks scene.

“So how is everybody liking the house?” Jared asked.
“Oh, it’s great,” Felicity answered as she checked to make sure her blonde hair was perfectly pinned up—she was probably a bottle blonde just like Lita and afraid of the chlorine. “I love it.”
“It’s to die for,” Justin agreed. “I just love the décor.”
“I’m rather fond of the extremely large plastic apple in the center of the living room,” Misha said and the group fell silent as they stared at him.
oh misha. you are wonderful.
because i started watching a lot of new shows this year.
oh, that could be fun.
oh god, jensen has joined a reality dating show to date jared
i cannot stop smiling, i look like an idiot.
beepboopboopbeep replied to your post: So I just went to tv.com to find a quote from the pilot of Supernatural, and I just noticed I’ve rated it as “5,5 - Mediocre”
I agree with that rating….and most of season 1 like that…..
really? because i don’t agree with it, not anymore. the pilot is so awesome in terms of sam/dean, like, it has all the quotes (driver picks the music, dad’s on a hunting trip, no chick flick moments, jerk/bitch), i mean they’re all there. and dean keeps looking at sam like his entire world just got right, and then they’re bickering and hunting that chick and the impala is driving them around and sam is so freaking innocent, and sam pushes dean out of the way from the computer, and then he busts dean out of jail, and we have two ceiling burns and dean saves sam from the flames twice and ugh. i love the pilot now. though i guess the woman in white storyline is not the best they had.
i had a lot of trouble getting into supernatural though, i seriously considered quitting after season 1.
I’m so over being home
just… i can’t wait to go home. i can even deal with making my own dinner and having cold fingers, i don’t care. i’ve gotten way too used to living by myself.
i was visiting with my parents and my sister. and no they didn’t stand up for me, because we all know how this guy is, and if they would’ve said something to him he would’ve said something back, and you would have it going and it would turn into a fight. we’ve all learned it’s better to just ignore him and accept that he’s an ass. it’s just really difficult sometimes.
he’s about 70 years old now, i believe, but he’s been that way his entire life, so that’s no excuse. i SHOULD bring a big wrestler boyfriend with me next time. i’ll have to look for one
no, it’s not. i mean, my first name is lisa, but that’s not my last name. it’s the name of my blog though, and it’s still pretty awesome the way you read it :D

The last time they had a fight, it was because Jared saved Jensen a piece of apple strudel. It went something like this:
“Jared,” Jensen said, voice so low and even as he turned from their refrigerator with the saran-wrapped blue plate in his hand. “What is this?”
“…Apple strudel?” Jared hazarded a guess, preoccupied with the crossword Harley was slobbering on. He really didn’t see Jensen coming until the plate was shoved directly in front of his face. He flicked his gaze up, eyebrows lifting at Jensen over the perfectly golden crust of the 4x4 square.
“Where,” Jensen growled through his teeth, “is the rest of it?”
So it may have originally been part of a 9x13 pan
i just need to get this out of my system
alleyway-ofdreams replied to your post: I’m convinced George Clooney is gay
Oh i’ve never actually thought about it. His suave-ness, charm and ultra cool looks always seemed to numb my mind. All i think about when i see him is how awesome he is.
he is pretty awesome
GPOY me in this dinner party 10 minutes ago. Where’s my black hole?
iatesomesulphurforlunch replied to your post: Wait, so Ten got THREE seasons?
WHAAAT, i thought Eleven got at least 3 seasons!
OH PLEASE SAY IT IS SO
innocentskeleton replied to your post: Wait, so Ten got THREE seasons?
… in future could you maybe refrain from posting huge spoilers about season six? Not saying this is huge (or maybe it is, since I had no idea, but then again it’s probably a rumour), but later on please consider what you post before the episode.
i don’t really think “i heard someone say” aka “i think i read a comment somewhere” qualifies as even a rumour, unless i just made it into one? i have no idea if it’s correct or not, i haven’t looked into it. i’m sorry though. it didn’t even occur to me people would consider it a spoiler.
