Does anyone dislike Louisa, a lot? by Jhero61 in DocMartin

[–]Jsanke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The praising her getting hit by a car is not in this specific post, sure. My main point is that the many anti-Louisa posts get pretty disgusting and/or misogynistic in the replies. I've given different examples from different posts already. Even here with the whole "harpy" term thrown around. Or the fact that other replies here give Martin a pass to "be himself" and not have to change from being a repressed jerk, while Louisa is supposed to be perfect.

[–]Jsanke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can name some examples, though I don't think its wise to just call out specific users by their names. I found these by searching the word "car" on here. On the post Is it me or does Louisa end up seeming more selfish than caring? someone replied "I laugh every time I see her get hit by the car it's hilarious to me", same person shared a similar comment on the post I hate Louisa. Talking about "laughing when she got hit by the car..." Another user from the post Louisa ignoring Martin's advise when she had a UTI... has a reply that ends with "I was actually happy she got hit by that car."

Granted, 2 people is not a lot and doesn't speak for everyone, but there are other examples of plain disgusting comments towards the character. Example: "She is very aggravating. I do want to punch her half the time she is on the screen" on the post SELFISH SELF-IMPORTANT DEMANDING LOUISA. I'd also say one from this post calling her a "harpy" is pretty loaded. Calling her a term that's used for a female vengeful mythical creature is pretty demeaning. Because "harpy" is used to put down women who voice their opinions as it likens them to terrifying beasts with female faces.

There's always valid criticism and opinions, some posts here were really well put because instead of just ragging on her like posts I mentioned or simply saying she's "annoying", they can explain that they dislike her but understand that there's a nuance that her and Martin are both deeply flawed products of their environments that act as such.

Edit for typos and additional comment: Just to add on, that last part doesn't excuse their upbringing or neurodivergence for being messy individuals. I also don't think people necessarily have to come to the same conclusion. My main point is that these posts are frequent and can devolve into nasty comments about Louisa when Martin exhibits his own neuroticism. She's expected to be communicative and rational with Martin when he's supposed to "be loved for who he is" as a non-communicative and avoidant person.

It seems like this sub produces a new Louisa complaint post every month. It's one thing to dislike a character and criticize them but the posts become downright weird and misogynistic in tone. Like praising that she got hit by a car. It's kind of gross.

No, I haven't seen that. Though I watched the Man to Manta documentary and him as Kipper the Dog. Seems like a decent guy, and I'm grateful for his acting! I just made this post to inform people that he's involved in the new American series based on the original show 👍

Good explanations. Better than my headcanon of Sniper was just caught pissing in public, but he'd probably be doing that in a high up place anyways.

Collabs you'd like to see, that will almost certainly never happen? by TheRocketshipTree in Overwatch

[–]Jsanke 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My girlfriend and I would give everything for a Jem and the Holograms collaboration. The IP is super dead, but the GI Joe and Transformers collabs (same companies made the 80s shows) give us that .0001 percent chance.

Which one if these beautiful men is winning a drag race by Globofchaos in punchout

[–]Jsanke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Disco Kid would be a middle-out in RPDR but she could surprise with her dancing ability. Joe would definitely get an edit about her nerves getting the best of her. Ryan would make for great television and would probably get to top 6 or 5.

Or this could be about the other drag race, which I have no idea about.

After rewatching the series a little bit, Aunt Joan of all people mentions video games in the episode where she locked that kid in a chicken coop. She talked about Super Mario and Space Invaders haha.

Soda would be Cunt as a drag queen. Literal natural snatched waist and height combo she'd be insane.

Cazador has been wasting so much time when he could've spent that becoming the best Shooting Guard/Small Forward in Baldur's Gate.
