    Wow you pick out one example and say that as if the other ten items listed aren't serious. Manipulative answer.

    And I'm sorry but living rent free in someone's house and then resurrecting them against ther will so they can pay off the mortgage is pretty sociopathic imo. Even Xander helped with repairs, Giles gave Buffy money...Willow squatted in the room and almost got Dawn killed. That's her contribution to the Summers household. Wonder if she's on scholarships or if her distant mother is funding her reprehensible lifestlye? Selfish lil' whiny bitch. So yeah, the horror. The horror. :guffaw:

    It might be exciting for this fella to open a similar thread in that other place on the Board that we're not allowed to talk about.

    I see Warren as a murderer who used mind control to rape so I cannot feel too sorry for him. Rack is a whole other case and Willow didn't kill Warren's two partners that I remember.

    To be fair, she did actively pursue both of them, and I somehow doubt she intended to give each of them a basket of kittens.

    Though that would have been an unexpected plot twist to be sure, and given who we're talking about here, it wouldn't have surprised me at all if one or both of them was allergic...

    No. You said they were all "atrocities". But by all means continue to act as if "manipulative" is a magic get out of jail free card when you get caught. Because that's at least amusing.

    You said it was a list of atrocities. Not "a list made up of some atrocities and also some other stuff I threw in to fill it out".

    You indicated living in someone's house without paying rent is an atrocity.

    And that's ridiculous bullshit.

    Willow also had questionable fashion sense, which I think we can all agree was a latent hint at her demonic sadism and genocidal tendencies.

    I had a moment of revelation about Willow when I recently saw a bit of the season four episode Something Blue again, and it hit me in retrospect how everything that is bad about the show in Season Six is basically crammed into this one episode as "Wa-hey! Willow's all messed up and causes wacky hijinks with her powers!". I mean, even Buffy and Spike getting hitched. It's like Season Six in microcosm. Except, y'know, it's in Season Four.

    It's quite subversive, but that episode basically says how potentially evil she could be. In fact she practically is bad in that episode, but it gets masked under the pretense that we're supposed to care about little ol' Willow (whereas in Season Six we're supposed to think, "What a bitch!").

    So yeah, count me in the "Willow was bad all along" group.
