I was reading through Snopes the last couple days and ended up in the fake photography section of the site, and wound up coming across this. Just thought I’d share since it was hysterical to me.
Why LOST Still Triumphs
Recently, both my neighbor (who started to watch LOST after I was finished) and I have started to watch Dr. Who, with David Tennent. He updated on Facebook about it, saying it’s fun and campy. Saying that, “Since LOST is over, I need something new to watch”. A woman replied on his status, saying, “Dr. Who is way better than LOST.”
I felt it was my time to chip in.
Here was my first response to him watching Dr. Who:
“I tried watching it because everyone loves it, and…it looks like a spanish soap opera. I mean, I know it’s BBC but it looks BAD. Secondly, the guy who plays the Doctor that I like isn’t even the doctor until season 2, from what I’ve later learned so…idk, maybe I’ll watch it.”
And here is my response to the woman who said Dr. Who is better.
“
Not to mention they’re two ENTIRELY different shows, and shouldn’t be compared to begin with. LOST had mythology, a lore behind it, an entire plan. Dr. Who is just funny. Sure, it can be exciting from what I’ve seen, but it’s no match for having to REALLY sit down and think about what you just watched and how the choices and such from the characters in that episode can have reprecussions, not just next week, but 3 seasons down the line. LOST did this. Other shows-as far as I can find-do not. Dr. Who isn’t bad by any means (apart from some poor camera work, but hey, it’s BBC), but it’s nowhere near the same level that LOST was, which was almost a literal weekly full fledged film production.
Just sayin’.”
LOST Valentine
“Out of the 6 candidates left, you’re the one I want protecting my Island.”
My valentine to my gf.
This popped up today on the IMDB post about “Journey 2: The Mysterious Island”. It was worth reading the comments to find this.
LOST love letter
“Baby, some days I really miss you. Some days you’re all I can think about. I remember your apartment number, 23B, and all the good times we spent there together. And sometimes I just break down and cry now that you’re gone. I miss you so much, and I wish I could turn the wheel to go back in time and make things better. Whenever I think of you, I always say to myself…
WE HAVE TO GO BACK.”
What Have You Done To Me, LOST?
Can watch any movie and show without crying once at deaths or anything.
Can’t even think about the scene in “The Incident” with Juliet and Sawyer at the swan site without being brought to tears.
Can’t even THINK about it without being brought to tears.
THINK. ABOUT. IT.
Wtf LOST. What have you DONE to me? It’s sad that nothing else will ever have that kind of impact.
You’re So Lucky
I’m mad at anyone who gets to watch LOST for the 1st time ever. I hate you because I want to be you. You don’t even know how lucky you are to be able to experience it for the first time. What I’d kill for that chance again.
Poor J.J.
I love how people who hated the ending of LOST blame J.J. Abrams for it, without realizing he left the show at the end of the first fucking season.
I couldn’t find a brown jumpsuit, so I had to get a blue one. But that’s ok, because the folks who worked in the auto shop of the Initiative also wore blue. This was my Halloween costume, which I’ve wanted to do for damn near 3 years now.
WWJD
Today while driving, I saw a “WWJD” (What Would Jesus Do) bumper sticker. The following exchange occurred afterwards.
ME: You know, I want to make a bumper sticker that says “WWJD” but have the J stand for Jacob. What would Jacob do.
MY MOM: He wouldn’t do anything. He’d find someone else to do it for him.
Point +1 to my mom.
