You know what I find really REALLY cool about what you said about John/Aeryn in this post? That I totally called it as why you didn't like them from that post you made about Buffy making people better for knowing her. I was thinking about that post in the context of them (cuz that was when my brain could fit nothing but Farscape) and your co-dependant comments. So, I'll just be proud here for a sec.
You should totally be proud of you.
Yeah, the co-dependent thing is what bugs me about them. And while I can kinda see the other point of view... John went crazy without Aeryn there. Literally went nuts. And that bothers me on so many levels, most of which aren't even connected to my brain. It just feels like they lost who they were as people. Their relationship just... squicks me.
Argh, damnit, I did have thoughts on this but they never made it as far as my LJ. How do you manage with that?
I write down things sometimes. I also talk to myself, a lot. It helps things stick -- I say something out loud, it's a lot easier for me to remember it later.
