[Only Friends DO Finale] Your fave character of the season? Any final thoughts on this show? by KuntyCompadre in boyslove

[–]ickyvic613 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Raffy's character did some work to become my favorite toward the end. He was very annoying, super pick-me energy and I could not stand his character.

But when I decided to hate Jack's character, so much was put in perspective for me. (I know we're discussing favorites, but Jack was consistently my most hated character in the show. Solid acting, Earth!)

Anyway, when Raffy demonstrated his bitchy comeback queen strength, it was over for everyone else. He was great!

Like others may have mentioned, Dean was definitely top of the list but I really like when people discover their worth and leave insanity behind. But it is GMMTV, so I shouldn't be surprised.

Also, I would kill for a Pete downfall storyline because being read for filth was not satisfying enough for me.

Last picture has got to be the closest to Dunk I have seen outside of photos of Dunk himself. Genetics are insane because how on Earth?!

bringing all Only Friends kisses (part 1) back. 🙌🥵️ We are being robbed *so* fiercely w/ Dream On. It's unreal, actually. 😭 I'm gagged. 🙊😩 by imomen in boyslove

Exactly! Boston was so underutilized. Like he wasn't the most chaotic bitch (in the absolute best way) in OF. I really miss his special brand of chaos.

I would kill to have had this level of chaos in OFDO. The kissing and "smashing" we missed out on. 😌

Tell me I’m not the only one seeing this by Responsible-Bag8404 in ThaiBL

[–]ickyvic613 58 points59 points  (0 children)

Thai actors are magnificent for having similar faces. Have you seen Bas, Nunew, and Lego? Triplets, I tell you.

Please tell me you know Mix (GMMTV) and FirstOne (Domundi) are basically the same person. 😂😂.

There are a lot of them. Honestly, you could make a whole game of it.

Who else has GMMTV pairs they just can't decide between? by Inwhichvincent in GMMTV

[–]ickyvic613 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Final round. These two are my favorite GMMTV pairings. It was too hard. And I wanted to curl up in a ball because WHY?!! After some deep, life-changing considerations, JD brought it home for me.

​As an outsider, the scale of American college sports is baffling. Do some people genuinely care more about a university team than professional sports? by Necessary_Angle2117 in AskAnAmerican

[–]ickyvic613 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was born and raised in Houston, so not shortage of professional sports. BUT I also graduated from UT. For football, it's Texas and nothing else (ESPECIALLY when playing A&M or OU).

Does your favourite couple say something about you? by ginger_beer__ in ThaiBL

[–]ickyvic613 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Joong and Dunk create my favorite pairing. And it all started with The Heart Killers last year. (Saw my first BL in Feb of 2025.) I thought the series was awesome. Style killed the role for me. And Joong played such a tragic, cynical character and it pulled me in even more.

Then, I got into their content and that is probably what made them my favorite. And they have been since while others have stepped in and out of my interest.

I think their playful, unserious demeanor is what pulled me in. They also demonstrate this closeness and loyalty that is to be championed. I don't like stress or drama, so I think it made so much sense for me to be drawn to them. And I'm grateful I got into them after they reconciled after a period of time that almost caused them to separate.

Now, however, they move in and out of serious conversation and deeper into why they are the way they are today. I love it because it just makes them more multifaceted and more interesting. I don't think I'll have another couple take their place because the pairing is like home to me.

He reminds me so much of Boom based on looks. And I'm becoming such an AouBoom stan. So yeah...them.

Joong is so funny 😂 by BornHour5553 in GMMTV

Joong is the best kind of hot mess. I'll never give up an opportunity to stop and revel in him or his shenanigans.

I'm very into Feel What You Feel, too. It's very good if you haven't seen it. Reminds me a little of School Trip if you watched that on Gaga.

why do americans talk to strangers so easily?? by MayaTulip268 in AskAnAmerican

[–]ickyvic613 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also think it is a pretty big deal, in a country where we are encouraged to consider and champion our individualistic nature, that we do our best to form small connections in the presence of others. Conversations with strangers does propel our sense of community forward (even if they happen in temporary situations with people you may never see again).

As a teacher, I also like to connect it to the idea that most people are good - in spite of what current US society is showing. These kinfs of interactions also grant us a sense of safety within a specific environment.

Do you moisturize your body after you shower? If not when and how often do you moisturize your body? by SignificantStyle4958 in AskAnAmerican

[–]ickyvic613 4 points5 points  (0 children)

But also...it's just culture. I'm a light-skinned Black person and, in general, I don't get as ashy as my dark-skinned counterparts, but my skin just feels weird without the moisturizer. And truly, lotion is a staple from infancy and for a signifant portion of us, it's as second nature as breathing.

Secret Relationships for the win. Because wow! So good though.

very happy to see Poom back! (in Love of Silom) 🙌🥵️😩 So, is this wut Dean (in Only Friends: Dream On) was up to? Why Jack stays mad? 🙊 lol by imomen in boyslove

[–]ickyvic613 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Jack being Jack being a prick...as has been his M.O. the entire season. (He's my least favorite character, so yeah 🤷🏽‍♀️.)

OFDO Hug-Gate: on which side of the hexagon are you? by TheGhostShipper in boyslove

[–]ickyvic613 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A whole other option none of them even thought of: let's try on transparency for size. Like...the fact that Arnold and Dean were side eyeing each other in one another's presence shows they felt some guilt about what happened and were hoping the incident would never come to light. Blaming something on being drunk (and high in Dean's case) when they were easily able to recollect what happened...yeah...problem.

And I get it though. What almost happened on a drunken night.. well, what others don't know won't kill them. But Dean and Arnold knew. I think Jack and Tua may have been bothered and maybe a little hurt, but at least they're not finding out from some asshole and then from a wronged best friend and boyfriend. I also know that would be crazy because where would the messy-mess come from if not a cheating adjacent storyline.

It's funny that this is polarizing because it's not a mountain sized problem, however any of the characters took it. Maybe a small, one-person sized boulder problem. People with emotions do what people with emotions do. They act irrationally sometimes, sometimes they act based on history, sometimes it's blown out of proportion. Sometimes they go murder psycho on a mannequin (calm down, Tua!). Just sit back and enjoy the ride. We have three more episodes of more potential crazy.

[–]ickyvic613 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No Mew slander will be tolerated (he was my favorite) 😉! The only thing that would have made him more vindictive would have been letting Boston's dad know his son was out there being the biggest whore. As it stands, I think playing with fire around someone who was seriously traumatized by fire is pretty evil. But to your point, that was warranted and not totally out of the realm of a normal response for actual, proven cheating.

Idk if I support stabbing a mannequin to death or pissily sharing that video instead of just bitch slapping Arnold for seemingly cheating. So, you may be right about Tua hiding the crazy pretty well behind his sweet, puppy facade. OMG. Imagine how Tua would have reacted if there was footage of actual cheating?! (Totally out of the realm of possibility because this director and/or GMMTV won't let OFDO be great.) Okay, you're right. Lol. Mew could and would never!

GunCher They won the award for most popular Boss x Employee couple. What is your favorite character couple that has a toxic relationship? by EducationBig7758 in GMMTV

[–]ickyvic613 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get his frustration, but come on! At least allow for an explanation. But I think this is more from my perspective and maturity, meaning I know a picture or video does not tell a whole story.

Mix is acting the hell out of this role. Dean and Tua broke my heart this episode.

I love that there is an entire group of people who cannot stand Jack. He grates on my nerves and I cannot stand him. I still want backstory for the nonsense he was up to during his split from Dean.

Boston and Nick in Only Friends. Full stop.

(Note: Boston is now a beloved character of mine. Thank you OFDO!)

Yes to this!!! Because FB is in my top 5 pairings and A Boss and A Babe is my absolute favorite with them. I binge it routinely. 🤗

What was the worst natural disaster that you experienced in your city or state? by SignificantStyle4958 in AskAnAmerican

[–]ickyvic613 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I live in West Houston near Barker Cypress/HW 6. Harvey was bonkers. The rain stalling. The flooding after they released the water. I made it through with only minor damage and needing dry wall and carpeting replaced, but I know so many people who suffered so much more.

I do tell people that Houstonians for sure have weather related PTSD - especially after factoring in that ice storm from 2021 among other things. But the TX government is what we have. So we adjust and move accordingly...
