ahhhhhh
Those glitches are a lesson in anger management.
Boy are they! I’ve never been a forum admin, though I’ve been a moderator before. I know NOTHING of webhosts, software issues, wtf EVER!!
Day Watch – osterby’s post at TAP
There do seem to be a few things have resonate in TB.
*that resonate*
I can’t get over how familiar all that stuff is! Right down to the Necronomicon referencing the Comic Book. Given that AB mentioned the films, I don’t think it’s possible he didn’t use these storylines. I guess we ARE in for a Rhodes scenario.
Issues with hosting, web browsers, crap, crap and more crap is nothing new to me. So I feel for you Sunny. We have had our host of issues with the Wetpaint sites over the last year.
So what are we talking about. The crappy spoilers. Real or bogus. Bromances between Eric and Biel. Ugh.
Oh girly, don’t worry about the bromance. Eric’s playing Bill! False alliance to achieve a number of goals, first and foremost to get Bill the fuck away from Sookie. As long as he’s near Sookie will keep getting injured and being force fed Bill’s poison.
On that note, how can people NOT see that the shooting in the cemetery was arranged by Bill? And that he is immune to silver? And that M/A intercepted Eric MOST conveniently? IOW, Bill was in cahoots with the entity possessing Marnie.
Yes and wasn’t it convenient Alcide was just around the corner to swoop her up and off to her house so the Bill could respond.
The only thing I wonder about Alcide is if he’s Bill’s knowing toady or if Bill is ‘calling’ him somehow without Alcide realizing it. I definitely think he can ‘call’ Sookie. Remember s1 finale, she was out cold. Camera focuses in on Bill’s eyes, he croaks out her name, Sookie’s eyes pop open. I think we had a discussion at TAP about vampires being able to covertly–telepathically– glamour someone who has had his blood.
Of course that would mean Alcide has had Bill’s blood, but it’s not out of the realm of possibility.
About Alcide maybe having Bill’s blood. There is still that ‘eye’ fuck’ they had at FT in s3. Maybe more the telepathic calling than blood.?
I agree about Eric playing Bill. I was wondering if someone from the Authority would intercede on Eric’s behalf. Perhaps Nora.
As far as Sookie’s accidental shooting. Heck yes. It is so obvious when Sookie seems to be drifting from Bill’s influence she miraculously needs Bill’s blood to heal. In this case, it was after Eric and Sookie had gotten together the night before. How convenient? Right?
SO obvious, SO convenient.
I have a feeling Eric will have to play it out to the end. Kind of like that game of chicken he was playing with Bill on the lawn. Eric knew Bill never got the authorization to kill him, Bill just wanted to play out a noble pretense, as is his usual MO. Eric more or less called him on it by figuratively saying ‘Bring it motherfucker!” lol.
lucasa was mentioning the Inside TB post about costuming. With the approach of s5, she’s discussing MA and 3 fingered hands.???
Exactly!! Tooooo weird they’re highlighting MA at this particular time.
I like the fact that she mentions lots of period costumes. Rubs hands. Love the flash backs. Yeah. And now casting for vampires at a sex club of sorts. I like the sound of that.
Haha, so do I.
Update on TAP forum: I have username/password for webhost but pw isn’t working! Gahh. Waiting to hear back from Renee.
No surprise there.
Now who let Russell out of his cement tomb? Predicting that Alcide had something to do with his untimely release. I keep going back to Season Three and Alcide entering Fangtasia. Boots and all and Russell announcing that his wolves are on their way.
We heard in Season four that Alcide said he had to pour a foundation. Next we find out that Russell has escaped. Hmmm.
Exactly pbt. I was just reading Exit, Pursued By A Sloth’s tumblr on this very subject. You guys HAVE to go over there and read what she’s put together on Alcide/RE!

Yeah, I read that this morning. Its pretty good stuff.
Oh and the picture of Alcide with the bull horns coming out of his head on that post was priceless. I remembered seeing that when the episode premiered. Laughed out loud at AB’s image. How obvious can you be Alan Ball? Why don’t other people see this sh!t.
Your guess is as good as mine pbt. Hmm, I might update with that image. I love it!
I agree. I am pulling it over to the wiki and ericsarea5. Nothing but win with that image.
Hey Sunny…I was just over at TAPS web hosting site, Dream Host. They are running some sort of updates on their systems today and there are wide spread outages. They have a thread set up for updates:
http://www.dreamhoststatus.com/2012/01/21/web-vps-host-homie-vserver198-down-for-unscheduled-file-system-check/#more-11243
Well, that’s a relief! I thought it was specific to TAP but if it’s system wide we can hope it’s all resolved soon.
Hey ya’ll, had a reply from the webhost so I did as they recommended–IT WORKED. YAY.
