Speaking of vessels for God, the latest reaper gave me heebie jeebies in that he looked a lot like Chuck.
and they were both in the show, Felicity.
You like ships. You don't seem to be looking at the destinations. What you care about is the ships, and mine's the nicest.

Now that I've digested it, I think it's time for him to go, and doing it at the very end of the episode really would have been the way to go, without the drawn-out fake suspense.
Yeah, I agree.
I was wondering about Chuck and the reaper, too -- it wasn't the same actor, right? I couldn't really tell, and I haven't looked anything up yet. But if you told me they were the same person, I'd believe you.
OH! And I loved Dean when he said to Dick, "You're either laughing because you're scared, or you're laughing because you're stupid." Well, I mean, I really loved that whole scene and thought Jensen totally brought it with Dean's utter conviction that he was going to end Dick. No bravado, just raw determination. Be afraid, Dick. Be very afraid.

Because books.
I didn't think the reaper looked like Chuck at all, but he did look incredibly familiar.
I think because that's almost New Testament/Jesus stuff.
Can you explain what you mean? I'm not following.

When the reaper first appeared, I'll admit to having a flash of Chuck. But it was only a momentary flash.
When Sam and Dean died and went to heaven, there was no reaper. But they did have to keep looking for the road to move through heaven. Like Bobby had to keep looking for a door. Yes, he wasn't in heaven but I like the parallel journeys they took.

Not being a Christian, I'll try my best. I see correlations in the idea of God in human form (as Bobby) as with the life of Jesus.
I don't profess to be a biblical scholar, they're just things I've been thinking about Bobby.

"I make mistakes, but I am on the side of Good," the Golux said, "by accident and happenchance.” – The 13 Clocks, James Thurber
I'm rather intrigued by the idea that perhaps Bobby was an unknowing vessel for God.
I doubt it will ever be canon, but it would make on hell of a fic.
I have actually read that fic, but damned if I can remember who wrote it.
edit: - okay, I found it; it's just a short piece by taelynhawker, but it's wincest so I know it's not something most people here would be interested in.

Oh! I kind of see where you're going there.
I think the idea of Bobby as God is sort of cool, but I don't really buy it. Very interesting, though. And definitely excellent fic material.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Dean always has his other crutches -- sex,
I was thinking about this last night (don't mock) -- when's the last time Dean got laid? Lisa? Dean needs to get some, seriously.
Maybe he'd lay off the hootch a little if he...(god, I'm gonna be crude and say it, because I can't not)...got some cootch.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
I had to do a double take because I thought Chuck (God) was playing the reaper. In my mind, I was already making excuses that they wanted someone to reap Bobby with whom Bobby would be familiar. Luckily that all happened in about 10 seconds and I was back to, "oh, he just looks like Chuck".
