I'm confused. What flame war? Escalation from what? I'm not seeing the cause for stress. dis_connection doesn't like Doctor Who's current incarnation; I'm ambivalent because I see glimmers of good in it but preferred Ecclestone and think it's losing all subtlety. We discuss things, but it didn't exactly get heated and we all, including thm, found a nice little modus vivendi; dis_connection will continue to bitch but will possibly occasionally remind the people who read his journal that he doesn't indiscriminately hate everything and thus is not a complete grumpy old fart, I'm going to continue to watch it every so often with dodgyhoodoo and try not to be so judgemental, and thm acknowledges there's a different between 'popular' and 'popularist'. No heat, no smoke, no flame war. Just discussion. No cause for stress.
Besides, I remember your inner fan girl. Long conversations about why Connor isn't evil and why Buffy S6 didn't completely suck. I'm used to your inner fangirl 'getting out of hand'. I never saw it as a problem before; why would I see it as one now just because we haven't spoken in over a year? It's not like I was actively fighting with you, or even like you were involved with the primary problems. I may not have liked how you chose to deal with events, but that's your business, so I have no call to bite your head off just because you still have the occasional passing urge to fangirl at me. In fact, it's rather heartening. So really, all I can say is 'do what you want to do', but if you want to fangirl about stuff that I've brought up in here, you might as well do it in here; surely it's easier than bouncing around and commenting in random people's journals. Besides, I missed the rabidity. If that's even a word.

Um ... sorry, what?
