@mastertdi Did you change your avatar to David Tennant?
-
@thelastgherkin How did you know.
-
@mastertdi I set up my Adblock Plus to block images of his face, and your avatar appears blank.

@thelastgherkin What can't computers accomplish these days?
-
@thelastgherkin May I ask WHY you hate David Tennant so much? I've never gotten a full explanation
-
@mastertdi Love.
-
@purplephish20 It's complicated.
-
@thelastgherkin Tell that to !rdn
-
@thelastgherkin I'm curious
-
@purplephish20 Well, one of the main reasons is that after about a season and a half, all of his nuances and quirks become flanderised in the extreme. He spends his first season looking soppy and doe-eyed towards Rose and the season following that whining about his loss (loss which, under RTD's pen, is repeatedly emphasised at the end of each series while soppy music plays and the Doctor looks disappointedly into the middle distance AGAIN AND AGAIN). Not to mention that Russell T Davies was so blatantly in love with the character of the Doctor that his evangelising of him comes to a head in a most literal fashion in season three as the Doctor goes Tinkerbell Jesus with the power of prayer to defeat the Master. And given that the end of his run was "I'm so great I command time" and his actual last words "I don't want to go" I want to climb into the screen and slap him shouting "STOP LOVING YOURSELF SO DAMNED MUCH".

@purplephish20 And in a more meta sense, the rabid Doctor/Rose shippers being the kind of people in the Doctor Who fandom that I loathe the most.
-
@thelastgherkin >not loathing everyone in the Doctor Who fandom
-
@thelastgherkin Tinkerbell Jesus... I love you for that.
-
@thelastgherkin Of all that, I find myself nodding my head SLIGHTLY, but the one thing I do agree unconditionally was the ending to season three... The archangel network my arse, it was the power of prayer, and it was a terrible ending. The "Timelord victorious" thing later on I found interesting, but oh sweet jesus Rose could be annoying. Martha was probably the worst companion though, Hell; Susan was better. And all she did was scream like a stereotypical 60's woman.

@colfax That's what we used to call it on ahum livejournal
-
@purplephish20 Son you better not be dissing Susan.
-
@thelastgherkin I'm saying Susan is better than Martha... by all means. "GRANDFATHERRRRRRR!!" = R.I.P headphone users
