I really don't know how to begin to process this.

Damn. Although that Tumblr post you linked to gives a pretty good insight. I like 'full-on, weaponized bittersweetness'. I can get behind that.
I do love me some bittersweet, ngl. Jed Whedon and Maurissa Tancharoen are interesting writers. It's like . . . Moffat's themes with Joss Whedon's building blocks. Or something like that. It's hard to explain, but they're somehow not as purely sadistic as Joss, but they sure did learn a lot from him and they do love to bring the pain.

Watched some more Peggy afterwords, so she made things better : )

Take him, make him a girl & a few years younger and that could be Impish Girl. The mannerism, the turns of phrase/mode of speech, everything. It's her as a youtuber and male.
Lol. Adorable.

Though I hope she's alright, because he just did a whole lot of crying.

I that's part of his appeal - like, he never holds back on his emotions. Which is probably very healthy. He seems fine now. :)

I sit in this weird spot of both totally getting and totally not getting the appeal of reaction videos. Like, I understand the need/appeal of the shared emotional experience. And yet . . . the average reaction video has literally zero content. None. Zip. What are you . . . supposed to pay attention to?

Enjoy their emotional meltdown as the writers twist the knife?

Check whether they react the same way?

He's currently watching Angel at the rate of an episode a week and tbh it's a great way to remind myself of the show but in 10 minute weekly chunks.

Yeah, but . . . how do you not get bored after two minutes?

Yeah, I like when I find something like that.

I want to rewatch Angel sometime. And Buffy too, probably.

Depends on who you're watching I guess? And then I realised that the whole thing is a moot point without mentioning gogglebox. Which I may have brought up before? Here's a clip, if not.

ETA: Here's one with Star Wars & Trump if you want something more 'local':

It's literally just watching people watching TV. But it's brilliant. And the very opposite of boring.

It's very handy. :)

Impish Girl keeps saying she would like to watch Buffy, but so far it's not happening...
