ash48I am reading that there's a lot of Sam character bashing today. (Luckily, I haven't read it just heard about it..)
Why? What has he done wrong now? I mean seriously? WTF??
Oh. Is it because he's been lying to Dean? Manipulating Dean? Using Dean as bait since the get go? Not caring about victims? Unsympathetic? Unheroic? Didn't accept the keys to the Impala? Smirked when Dean was turned? Paid for sex? Smirked when he first saw Dean after a year? Didn't tell Dean he was back from the dead? Sided with the Campbells? Continually gave lip service in just about everything he said in that last episode? (and each episode proceeding it)..
Yeah.. because that makes sense. That all sounds EXACTLY like Sam.
HELLO??!! Clearly NOT SAM... Jeez.... how many more friggin' clues (and anvils) do they need to drop?!
This is the whole POINT! If anyone thinks Sam is in any way capable of the above actions then the Sam they know is not the Sam I know. Wow... after 5 seasons I think it would be pretty darn clear what kind of person Sam is.
Oh ...oops, that's right. He left Dean for college. He wanted out of the hunting life. Damn I forgot. Sam is totally all of those things. Silly me.
*sheesh* Ok. I got worked up... needed to rant and I figure my own journal is the best place to do it.
At least that way you can ignore it.
This is why I don't go anywhere else other than LJ when reading discussion posts. I think I'd probably BURST something if I actually read it. I like my little safe, sane haven and awesome, sensible flist. And I am totally up for someone telling me (in a non bashing way of course) if there's a Sam they are seeing that I've totally missed here. Totally fascinated by that...
*breathe Sarah, stay calm...*g**

I keep thinking back to S4 Sam. Troubled. Misguided. (Not that Dean wasn't as well.) But my heart's been breaking lately remembering how even at their worst -- beating each other up, breaking each other's hearts, show-down, knock down, drag out fight in that honeymoon suite. Remember that? They each had tears in their eyes. They were so alive. So together in their separate pain.
Now? Sam is so not there it's like a hole. Hmmm. Like the hole he fell into.

Doesn't make sense that some peeps can't see that. But, as you say... any excuse to pick one bro over the other. Makes no sense...

Yeah. Interesting comparison. So very much a chasm....
Whaaa... poor Sam. There should be an out pouring of love for him, not hate. For both our troubled boys.
