Hey, y'all!

Get your Xander!hate on! [livejournal.com profile] eleusis_walks is doing his 30 Days of BtVS, and even though there are many, many topics I strongly disagree with him on, he is always thoughtful and awesome and interesting. And the things I do agree with him on? I agree violently.

Like our mutual hate for the ultimate Nice Guy Xander Harris. He basically lists every single hateful thing that Xander ever says/does and I am glorying in my hate. He also has a love-post devoted to Anya, which I haven't gotten to read yet, but I know is wonderful because anything involving Anya is wonderful. And [livejournal.com profile] eleusis_walks loves Dawn and Cordy and Jenny and basically a ton of awesome ladies, so I forgive him for not loving my boy and my girl enough. ;D

So join the hate fest! Or if you like Xander...well, I would like to hear why. Because it is beyond my understanding.

I find his icky oversexualization way disturbing, but I'm similarly disturbed by just about every other guy of comparable age on TV, so I'm not sure how meaningful it is.

Agreed.

I prefer Wash. ;D

I'd really just rather ignore him and focus on the interesting characters.

I totally agree with this. Which is why I rarely write him. Pretty much everyone around him is more interesting than he is.

No argument there. :)
