....... why is grown Kate dead to you? .......
Its Teen Kate that's dead to me. Well, Kate in general makes me roll my eyes and go "spoiled little 'woe is me, everyone feel sorry for me, everyone pity me' little brat" in general now, but its mostly Teen Kate that is dead to me.
But anyway, since ya' asked (hold on to your hat cause here I go) ......... the reason Teen Kate is dead to me is because of the way she treated poor Louie and threw him away like trash. That poor dog was trapped in a kennel in a burning house, probably terrified, and no way to even try to run and save himself since he was closed up in his kennel. That dog was traumatized too and just wanted his human to comfort him. Some 48 hours after the fire, when Rebecca tells Kate that Jack essentially died of smoke inhalation due to being in the fire so long, she drops poor Louie on the floor and walks away. She then ignores the dog, doesn't comfort or care for him, clearly isn't even taking him for walks since she complained he was peeing all over the hotel room (she never complained about it when he did it at the house, she cared for him and cleaned him up), and then like 3-4 days after the fire, on the way to the funeral she goes "I don't even want that dog", and essentially throws away that poor, traumatized dog who doesn't understand what is happening and just wants his human to love him, and we have never seen Louie again.
Her reason .... well if Jack would not have gone back for the dog he wouldn't have died, which is WRONG WRONG WRONG. Louie was in his kennel, all Jack had to do was run down the stairs, grab the dog and run out the door. DONE. But no, Jack took many, many minutes running around that house looking for Kate's tape, grabbing trinkets, whatever all that stuff was in the pillow case. By Kate's logic, THAT is why he was in the house so long ... searching for and collecting those things, not getting the dog. The dog was an easy get ... searching all around the house for those things was not. So by Kate's reasoning, if she threw the dog away because Jack died from being in the house so long, then why didn't she throw away that tape and all the other stuff? THOSE THINGS are the reason Jack is dead, not the dog. So why does she still have those things? Were it not for those things, Jack would not be dead.
If she can throw away her dog like trash, she gets whatever is coming to her and I don't care what happens to her. Dead.to.me!!!!!
And now before everyone jumps all over me .... its just a TV show, not real, blah blah blah, I don't like the fact that they wrote she tossed that poor dog like he meant nothing and keeps all the other things that are the true reason Jack is dead. It is now some 8-12 months later and she's still "woe is me, everyone pity me, my dad died" while Randall and Kevin are both in college (their dad died too), and she just sits around the house so everyone can cater to her and feel sorry for her because 'its too late to go to college now' (uh, you can start going to college any time) or do anything because 'my dad died'.
. Guess what Kate .. the world does not give a crap that your dad died. Life goes on. You don't get to sit around and make everyone feel sorry for you. And you certainly don't get to throw your pet away like trash. So I don't care what happens to her. It will just be more "oh poor me, look what happened to me now, everyone pity me and feel sorry for me again".
And don't even get my started about how she thinks Rebecca is such an overbearing pushy mother because she is totally not. I'd kill to have a mother like Rebecca.
Rant over. Continue thread. Or Skate Canada .... since I don't have have Sports Gold and geoblocked on the ISU stream, I got nuthin' to do but rant so I make myself stay out of the Skate Canada threads. Maybe I'll stay unspoiled until it runs on the OC next week.
I used to just DVR things at 10:00 in case I fell asleep. Now I have to DVR things at 9:00 too. I've fallen asleep watching things between 9 and 10 that I had DVRd. At least I can start them over.

Sorry, that song popped into my head when I read this. I hope he didn't have a motorcycle accident. And it was my friend's OLDER sister's record, but we listened to it all the time. It still gives me chills.
