vuckers are like ZOOMBIES... no really

Ok, I cannot tell you how EXCITED I was at receiving this. I mean, some real CVers for reals!! After all this time! #$%^&@ and right before a new episode?? After I've taken 20 aspirins?? You all LOVE me! So let us wank this fool because it's just too good to be true! Man, I've missed a good wanking, I've been so depressed about it lately that it's just put me in a foul mood.

Oh and yes, this is the SAME person.

U guys are so mean, it really sux. Anyways, she's not one of my favs but I like her in the show. Maybe V will grow even more next season, I'm looking forward to and... Vuck? The new Bluck. LOL I like Vanessa and Chuck, I found it really interesting. It's way better than the idea of Bluck as a cute romantic and steady couple. I want the Chuck Bass back now and a love/hate relationship with Vanessa would be cool. But I know that's probably just me and a few anyway LOL I'm just hoping for surprises.

ME: To begin with my eye twitched a few times at the random 'sux' and ridiculousness of the entire post. But you know, once I got over that I was able to real enjoy myself. Ok, baby, Vanessa has had 2 seasons, 35 credited episodes to do something for me other than piss me the hell off. So if in 35 episodes all the writers have managed to do was to get the majority of the fandom to want her gone or in a corner I highly doubt attempting to make her just FANTASTIC next year will make her an army. It will quite honestly have the opposite effect. AND PLEASE, FOR THE LOVE OF PINK LEMONADE WHICH I LOVE SO MUCH DONT YOU EVER EVER EVER EVER SAY 'VUCK IS THE NEW BLUCK' BECAUSE PEOPLE WILL FUCK YOU UP. Really, I'm just looking out for your well being. I have never seen Chair as a 'cute romantic and steady couple' but if you do I totally understand, it's the affect of the Kool-Aid. Not your fault, kid. And those things are not called 'surprises' they're called OMFG-moments with no substantial back-story backing.

As if any of you would really stop watching the show because of Vuck, anyway. That's the problem with gg... 'fans' - u guys keep pressuring with this 'bluck or cancellation' shit and it's really pathetic.

ME: FACT. People HAVE stopped watching because of Chuhobo, people I know, people that often posted, wrote fanfiction, made icons, made videos. Fans. Fans stopped. And I LOVE that she admits that she's not part of the GG fans. "That's the problem with gg... 'fans' - u guys" that tells me that you really dont know us or are part of US for that matter.

And we have more chance of seeing old school Chuck Bass back in a tormented relationship with Vanessa than steady in a romance with Blair, I think that's obviously a fact.

ME: Another statement of proof that she neither understands nor appreciates a good character progression. Characters should innately stay the same, participating in random acts of promiscuity in order to give you a good surprise. WANK me a river, baby, because I'm all out of tears.

But for the sake of insanity and waiting for the recap I propose a poll.

BLONDS have more fun!

SPOILERS!!

You made a potentially sarcastic remark about Gossip Girl's Serena and Nate happening. I need to know if there is anything to that remark, because I am more hopeful than I should be about Serenate finding their way back together. Please help! — Megan

MICKEY: Hope springs eternal, Megan! I will downgrade my previous sarcastic remark to say that the possibility of Serenate is alive and well through the end of the season. But Serena's season-finale suitor is someone entirely different — and surprising. If it's a happy ending you're looking for, forget it. Though Blair hears some magic words, her fall is looking increasingly shrouded in dread. Welcome to NYU B.

I know, we can't stop playing with Nate's name. He's too gullible to just let him be plain Nate. So. They're cock-teasing us with this Serena business because we know from spoiler pictures that she runs off with Carter. Yet I can't help but ask myself in a suspicious uncommon manner if I rather they do Serenate right rather than hook them up at the last moment in the season. Now, I know they teased us with this at the very end of last season and it amounted to nothing but I really am hopeful that this time they will finally give me Serenate. But I rather that they give it to me right. You know? I dont want a Nair-mesh up. I rather have the build-up. So, in reality, I rather she doesn't end the season with Nate like she did last time but running off with Carter and leaving the gentlenate alone might be better. As you all can see, here in KAG we are split as to what we want to do with Nate. I'm a Serenate fan, Inca tends to just like Nate gay but she's sympathetic towards the NJ movement. We dont mind, Nate is such a whore he can do anyone he likes (with the GRAND exception of Blair who belongs to Chuckles and the hobo-barista that put us to sleep).

So, if you like Serena like me vote in. If you dont, go away :P

(FYI, as you can see we're not worried about Chair. Every freshman gets worried before they start college. She'll get over it.)

It is a truth universally acknowledged that any character in need of a plot will find themselves an equal mate. I think we pride ourselves in having it made very clear that we're not fans of Nate nor of Vanessa. Now, this is a still for the finale. So I ask you, gentle readers: Where do you stand with the NV. NV or NO?

We admit to often not give a damn fuck about other people other than Chair and those pertaining to Chair but we have to hand it to Taylor for making it in on of People's 100 most beautiful people! Damn, if at 15 I had done that I wouldn't have worked a day in my life. Let us be honest here.

Speaking of Jenny, I have to say something here for a moment. Jenny's character is actually strong and more developed than Serena's. This season they BETTER give her a guy. Like a real boy, not the Pinocchios they give Serena. A real one. If they're not going to go the NJ route then DO something about this poor girl. She can probably rock a ship that would make me interested on.

So let us poll it. :D

the verdict is F

There are a few things that upset up as much as patchy and ridiculous storylines. Nothing as bad as CV which was SHIT ON A FUCKING CRACKER. But when a man is ATTEMPTING to control you the way Nate is in this episode and Blair CONTINUES to live in her little alternative universe? This sets us off.

We? Will not be watching. We will download the CB scenes on youtube and that's fucking that. Oh and for the record - if your boyfriend even RESEMBLES Nathaniel Archibald - DUMP HIS ASS. Dump him. You'll thank us when you're our age.

In all FAIRNESS

If our deepest and most hopeful dreams DONT come true and we have to suffer through another season of Vanessa. What would you prefer they do with her (AND YOU NOTICED HOW I WAS FAIR AND DIDN'T GIVE AN OPTION FOR HER TO SIT IN A CORNER AND POUR COFFEE) I thought that was SUPER nice of me :D

marry us, Buddy!!

We're been telling you for a while that we here at Kool-Aid fucking LOVE Buddy TV. They're sensible and great, they post anti-Nair and anti-Nate articles and I LOVE them for it. They MAKE SENSE. They have intelligent discussions and we're just addicted to them. They hit ANOTHER home run with this new article:

It has already been pointed out that Nate Archibald (Chace Crawford) seems to have undergone an amazing (and out-of-character) transformation in the last few episodes of Gossip Girl. For those who are out of the loop, recently, good old boring Nate broke up with Vanessa (Unidentifiable Female Szohr) to reunite with old flame Blair (Leighton Meester), much to the dismay of Bluck fans. The startling change was most evident in the last episode, when Nate caught Blair doing something underhanded, broke up with her, only to get back together a few minutes later, after a conversation with Chuck (Ed Westwick).

The news of the Blair and Nate reunion didn't sit well with Bluck fans, needless to say. And even those who aren't very passionate about the wickedly delicious tandem are quick to point out that Blair and Nate, since their first season pairing, are just not right for each other anymore. This is not mere conjecture; there have been many instances when the two have shown that the two are in different stages in their lives, that they're just so different flat.


Blair, for instance, despite pronouncements of turning over a new leaf, proved that she's incapable of doing so when she forged an evil deal with grandpa Archibald. She herself had no explanation. However, after just a few seconds of inadequate convincing from Chuck ("She didn't pick me," or something), Nate quickly got over it, and Blair got away scot-free - again. (Of course, Blair does deserve some credit, for at least trying to resist temptation.) What happened to judicious and sensible Nate?

(Where was Vanessa, by the way?)

While they were happy, the Vanessa and Nate tandem received a lot of flak for being boring and unexciting, but never for being out-of-character and irrational. It's more or less like Serena (Blake Lively) and Dan (Penn Badgley); not a lot of fans, but people let them because they deserve each other more or less, you understand the connection, you understand why they're together, and on some instances, they can even be cute.

I trust, however, that this Nate and Blair thing is but temporary, and the Gossip Girl universe will be back to normal anytime soon.

They have a poll for you to post what you believe. Now, I voted that Blair should be with Chuck but the answer of 'they're too different' was also tempting because I really dont like to make Nair to be just about Chair. It's about Blair as a person and how they will never make each other happy in the long run.

GO VOTE!

Can we say how disappointed we are at the 'compelling' Nair arguments posted on E! Online for the monster 250 word essay we had posted about before? First of all, a shout out to our peeps Alice and CJ for winning! You both are AWESOME and deserve ALL the praise you're currently getting. Now. Let us address this little 'contest' that was brought up by E!

I hear a lot of people calling it unfair because the pro-Nair statements pale in comparison to the eloquent pro-Chair ones. So let us take a moment to consider how they all went down:

INTERN #1 - So, I read over all the pro-Chuck/Blair essays. I'm having a hard time choosing which one because there's a few that are really awesome. I can't believe these people watch some teen show. I think I might start watching it.

INTERN #2 - Are you serious? How come I had to read the pro-Nate/Blair ones? It's not fair!

INTERN #1 - Because you think Chace Crawford is pretty.

INTERN #2 - I'm pretty sure I lost IQ points reading these.

INTERN #1 - Really? They didn't speak of Brandon, Bogart or Taylor?

INTERN #2 - Who?

INTERN #1 - The mystery is over as to why you got the Pro-Nate/Blair ones.


But really? Go read it, if it doesn't make you feel sorry for them then I dont know what ever will. Oh and vote on the motherfucking poll, people. Thanks!

Since Inca went through all the trouble of posting the essay I will go through the trouble of adding a poll. I love making the polls ;)
