Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I saw some on Amazon for #24.95, from third party sellers.

That's my problem. It's not $25 worth of calendar to me. Party on to the people who'd pay $150.

I assume it's in stock here, and it's only $13.99

No, it's not. If you go one click further it tells you it isn't for sale anymore.

But thanks!

Because books.

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't click that far.

There are a couple fan-made ones on CafePress -- not photos, but one with quotes, one with sort of tattoo designs, but neither of them is exactly right (for me). I'd love to see a really cool one with stock photos for atmosphere and good quotes.

But I know you want the pretty. I feel so bad -- it was right in the mall here before Christmas. I should have grabbed it for you. Next year!

What about TV Merch? It's $19.95, but I don't know how much the shipping/handling would be.

That slides in under the wire. I wonder if there's any way I can tell the auctioneer why they lost.

Thanks! I am enabled.

Samantha Smith is in a Kia commercial that was just on during the Superbowl. I hope the viewing audience takes note of how awesome Mary Winchester 1.0 is.

I am backing out of a weird conversation with someone who's really interrogating the text differently from me. I understand the POV that Sam isn't down with the whole lifestyle (although I think he's making peace with it as a responsibility), but this season, Dean has been excited by it. So why would they quit because their grandfather thinks it's a crap job?

He also says they have a net negative impact on the world's safety, so they should stop hunting. Haven't we been told that destiny would accept substitutions? That it could have been Jake instead of Sam (for at least some shenanigans--not sure how far that would go), and John instead of Dean cracking the first seal?

Destiny didn't say they'd save the world. It only said the world would need saving.

I kind of want to know why he's been watching this long if he sees them as a bad thing from even before S4--and in a way that means they should stop, not in the sense of a bad thing you can't stop poking at.

Because books.

If ... they stop hunting, there is no show. And how on earth are they having a net negative impact when, just for one example, they stopped Lucifer from destroying the world?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Apparently Lucifer was their fault, and if they'd never been born (or had stayed dead at any earlier juncture), he'd have stayed in Hell.

I don't feel the show is stretching the character's plausible motivation by keeping them hunting. If they'd just stopped at most times before this season, they'd have been handing the world over to the bad guys. Who does that, and can we call them heroes?

Bullshit. That's why heaven/destiny created loopholes like Adam. Dean was supposed to be Michael's vessel, and thought he could get out of it, but wait -- destiny provided a sub!

This also gets into really heavy analysis of free will and determinism and blah blah, and honestly? I just love my Winchesters, and they're heroes, and fuck you, buddy.

I'm surly this morning, I guess.
