I try to keep my opinions about Jess Mariano to myself because I don’t want to get my head bitten off on this site. Also as I grow older I honestly feel less like getting on my soap box about him especially since I like Jess in the revival. Jess grew up to be a pretty good guy.

But can ya’ll keep Pacey Witter out of the same sentence as Jess. They are literally nothing alike. 

1. Parents love Pacey I.e. Andie’s mom, Audrey’s parents, Mr and Mrs Leery, probably any other parents who would get to know Pacey. Parents hate Jess for good reason honestly. He’s the type who’s a bad influence on your child.

2. Pacey is a sweet charming gem, who spreads his sweetness and charm to everyone. To Jen, to Dawson, to Jack, to Joey and to just about everyone else. Jess is only nice to Rory. Which I get why teenagers would get heart palpitations about that. But I just think it’s assholey to be mean to everyone but one person.

3. Pacey would never get rapey with his girlfriend at a party! Pacey would never get sexual with Joey and then when he gets pushed off bite her head off and insinuate it was her fault for coming into the room. Yeah, i’ll bring up “Keg! Max!” cause of some of ya’ll have conveniently blocked it out.

4. Pacey does not particularly like to read which reading is a big part of Jess’ personality. The only time Pacey likes to read is when Joey and he are reading to each other.

5. Pacey is a friend and ally to women and a feminist icon. He would never ask Joey to drop out of college to be with him. In fact, the opposite. Pacey would ask her to cut him loose so that she could realize her dream and live the life she’s meant to live.

Again I don’t hate Jess in current day but it just makes me tired all over when people act like they are so much alike…. they truly aren’t! The only possible similarity is that they both don’t care about school.

Believe me, I know I made a big mistake. You do? Yeah. But I don’t wanna act like that in front of you. I mean, for one thing, the whole self-flagellation thing, it’s kind of embarrassing, and I just… I want you to think well of me.

"That what I need to survive is not Gale's fire, kindled with rage and hatred. I have plenty of fire myself. What I need is the dandelion in the spring. The bright yellow that means rebirth instead of destruction. The promise that life can go on, no matter how bad our losses. That it can be good again. And only Peeta can give me that. "

It would only be fuck boy shit if he mislead her about his feelings in order to sleep with her. Kiara was conflicted about her feelings and sleeping with him seemed to help her come to a realization about her feelings. She didn’t do anything wrong and I don’t think it should leave a bad taste in your mouth, she never set out to hurt or manipulate anyone.

Yeah that is true. You've got a point there. Idk I just felt uneasy about the whole thing. Like she was only considering her feelings, you know? Not Pope's. Not thinking about consequences to their friendship. Not thinking about how Pope would feel. She would kiss him one day and then next day ice him out. Didn't feel right. But yeah she wasn't doing it to manipulate him or anything. And Pope also never really said anything sooo... I mean she can't read his mind right? Anyway, it was just weird, hope it's done and dusted. Lol.

[lonelysonnet]

Hmm I'm just musing as to how I would react to the gilmore boys in real life? Bear with me.

Haha let's start with Luke. I'm not sure about grumpy old Luke?? If I feel like someone is not vibing with me or being enterained by me, I back off haha. I'm not like Lorelai who has the confidence to charm her way into people's hearts. I will be over analysing every little thing lol. If I feel like I'm annoying him I will absolutely back off, we won't be bickering. So realistically I think Luke and I will have a diner guy/caffeine junkie relationship.

How sad!

Dean? Hmm. Not too sure I'll be into him, like nothing about Dean screams my type. Unless he is into me first, then I'll be like hellooo tall boy let's talk love LMAO

Jess. Yeah we'll definitely throw hands 😂 We both read a lot, I mean A LOT. That would normally be a common ground, but we won't see eye to eye on anything else. Like I have zero tolerance for rude teens, always been that way. No matter what reason, I have little patience. Plus if he treated my mom like he treated Lorelai, WE'RE ENEMIES lol. And he would hate my relatively "privileged" self-righteous know-it-all self. When I say know-it-all I mean, I'll assume stuff about him and that will annoy him. But HEY it does give potential for a solid enemies to lovers wc/10k multi chapter mega fic lolz

Logan. This is where Rory's taste will coincide with mine haha. Like I will 100% be charmed by him. Okay not like their first interaction where he was kind of a snob to Marty but if he and I do have chances to interact after that I'm pretty sure I'll be charmed. Especially, his intellect. But lord he will 100% get on my nerves with that ethics debate he did with Rory. I think it will be more like while I'm attracted to his charms and smarts I'll be super annoyed by his rich guy attitude. He is the type of guy that I will be annoyed by but will still live in my head rent free lmao. So there will be major sexual tension but umm after I get that out of my system ;) would I care? Doubt it.

Huh. Turns out I have no future with these boys. Interesting. LOL. I think I have two types, the shy guy who will take me by surprise or the charming guy that will talk his way into my heart. Latter is where Logan comes close but our morals and values may not align after all. Sooo I'm out!

[lonelysonnet]

So what was up with the whole Pope x Kiara non-romance?? While I did not see any chemistry between them I at least thought they'd get a fair shot? I just didn't understand why Kie kept changing her mind. That annoyed me so much. She was so insensitive and wishy washy about it too. Before sleeping together Pope asked her to consider their friendship and she said "I'm not really thinking about it rn" why not?! If you're unsure about your feelings, then think about the possible consequences to your friendship! And then after they do sleep together she's so cold and distant. She won't talk to him. Then later gives a half assed speech about how she wants to be friends. Pope is to blame too bc he just goes along with whatever she says and doesn't really offer up his feelings. But I can't get it out of my mind that if the roles were reversed and Pope slept with Kie saying he had feelings and later acted all cold and distant then I would totally be against him! That would be straight up fboy shit for me. I'm conflicted about this. What Kie did left a bad taste in my mouth. Not gonna lie.

I recall late November Holding my breath, slowly, I said “You don’t need to save me But would you run away with me?”

[distortquote]

Rory: I relate to Belle because she loves books and likes people for who they are!

Lorelei: I relate to Tinkerbell because she needs attention, or she dies.

[huntzbergers]

I’m not used to all this hoopla. Birthdays aren’t a very big deal in the Huntzberger family. Why not? Because birthdays aren’t something you achieve. Why should you be lauded for something that just happens to you?

[lonelysonnet]

What is with me and my inability to choose between Ben and Paxton????

Devi girl I'm totally with you!

When I see Ben and Devi, I'm 100% team Bevi

When I see Paxton and Devi, I swoon to Daxton

I literally cannot choose i have never been neutral about anything in my goddamn life so wtf is actually happening here???

This triangle will be the death of me

The way it's always a blonde and a brunette for me 😭

These are good, by the way. Good! But you know what would be great with them is a nice bowl of peeled grapes. Oh, yeah? Would you make peeled grapes? If they come in a tube, I do.

“Like a sign of hope that means that her life could always get better.”

[lonelysonnet]

So Lorelai and Christopher split up, got divorced bc it ain't "right" or the writer's way of saying, season's ending series is ending now let's get her back together with Luke. So right on cue everyone in Stars Hollow, who in the first ep of S7 said Luke and Lorelai, "they didn't belong together" "they're not right for each other" "they're in different planes" are back to saying "they belong together" "they've found the wormhole" bc season's ending series is ending let's get them back together. This show is really smart 99% of the time and then there are times like this lmaoo

[marrissacooper]

Follow-up questions: I'd love to hear why you dislike Lorelai (you're not alone---many agree with you!), what you think of Luke/Lorelai, and why you prefer Rory/Logan to Rory/Jess :)

Sorry it took me a little long to answer! I wanted to phrase it right.

Lorelai and her relationship with Rory

I don’t really dislike Lorelai but I feel like the show rarely points out when she does something wrong, so it frustrates me. Her parenting choices are painted as good because she’s her “daughter’s best friend” but that’s the problem for me, you can’t be a mother and a best friend to your child. You can have a close and loving relationship, but a line has to be drawn. Because of that, it sometimes feel like Rory has to be too mature and responsible for her age. Also, she often claims that Rory can do whatever she wants but whenever she doesn’t act like a mini-lorelai she gets judgemental. I guess that’s my other big problem with her character: she often says something but does the opposite. Like when Emily has her breakdown in s6 and says to Lorelai “you think I live a meaningless life” and she answers “No.” Except she does think that, she always did and loves making jokes about it to other people. Emily is a flawed character too but at least the narrative aknowledges that.

Luke/Lorelai

However, I still like Lorelai more than Luke lol. He’s one of my least favorite characters. I didn’t mind him in early seasons, I was actually rooting for him and Lorelai but when they got together they lost whatever appeal they had. To be fair, Luke is simply not my type of guy. The small-town, grumpy, manly man is just not my thing. And once he gets with Lorelai, his flaws only become more apparent: he never responds to her cheery behavior, hardly ever communicates and manages to turn a confident woman into an insecure mess. Not telling her about April is his worst mistake, but I also hate how desperate Lorelai is after the wedding renewal incident when none of it was her fault! Not to mention the entire Martha’s Vineyard episode and the time he tells her not to sell her inn (as if that was his decision to make) when she was obviously hesitating because she loved the idea of travelling.

Why I love rogan

Simply because he makes rory visibly happy! They share the same interests but also challenge each other and bring out the best in the other. Rory is more spontaneous and assertive with him and Logan becomes more responsible and settles down. They do all these fun things together, they just look really happy. And in s7, they communicate so well (at leat until the finale) it's nice to see them resolve their issues like adults and they're all domestic they just exude warmth and comfort.

In comparison, j*ss/rory never seemed appealing to me. Again, I'm not a fan of the grumpy man, I don't understand why you'd want to be with a guy who is constantly in a bad mood and isn't willing to make an effort even with your loved ones. I've met guys like J*ss irl, who think being moody and reading books is a personality, and I've hated every single one of them. But most importantly, the scene at Kyle's party where he gets mad at rory in the bedroom will never be okay to me. I don't even think rory should've remained friends with him after that.

[huntzbergers]

Because of the whole thing that happened with Marty, I just wanna tell you about it now so that you don’t think this is a big deal. Or, actually, maybe it is a big deal, I don’t know, that’s why I wanna talk to you about it. What’s going on? Well, maybe it’s just human nature. Maybe we don’t wanna be happy. You’re not happy? No, that’s not what I’m saying. I’m so happy. Okay, good, so what’s the problem?
