I still hate Louis as a person but like him on the show

I don't watch any of those shows. It's deeper than the typical crime show, which I don't watch because I'm not interested in watching crime-of-the-week type shows with minimal character development. POI has some serious depth and Michael Emerson is such an underrated actor. I hated him in Lost and totally love him here - he plays two polar opposite characters SO well.
Okay I'll stop gushing now.

Haha ok we'll see, i'll catch up if I have time. I have too many shows to catch up on though
I still haven't finished Felicity  , and 4 more seasons of FNL to go through  , then I have the Killing as well

Felicity is still acting? What's this show about? (yes I'm too lazy to google)

He is quite a slimey little shit, yeah. But you kind of understand why he does the lousy things he does.  He reminds me of that rat professor from Harry Potter.  He has a ratty face.
What's The Killing? That sounds scary.

It's a drama? Why does Matthew Rhys sound so familiar...

Respect man, apparently arm is pretty cool, so I can respect losing to her.
But I would give you a vote if I could

Sounds good. I like the part where you're not an ass
Don't forget to enter Mr MTF. Many of my favourite guy posters are too shy, so I won't be able to vote for them. And the defending champ said he's not participating this year, so you won't have to compete with his abs of steel

Re: 2012 MTF Popularity Contest News Thread
WOW  I didn't even know for this contest and I'm a 25th seed. 
I trashed a qualifier in the first round as well, 36-2.  If only winning my ITF futures matches would be so effortless.
Thank to everyone who voted for me and try to push into the 3rd round at least. I have similar seeding and expectations as Seppi lately.
I will vote for you guys to return the favour.

Re: 2012 MTF Popularity Contest News Thread
The 3rd quarter proved interesting in that every single participant listed on the left side (the favourite) won. Not a single upset, even a small one. That must be unusual.

Nope, NoCut Lasek.  Heard it was a bit more reliable although a little more painful afterwards than Lasik. Now I'm slowly getting my vision back, though the light is still very foggy.

Actually, neither.  My lenses were working fine but I've wanted to do the surgery for years (must be nice not to need lenses I thought) and I realized I had some money to spend for once so I did it.
Anyway, I like this contest. Even though some people (won't name names) are just trying to manipulate others for votes, I really like the popcon spirit overall. It truly brings out a positive (and surprisingly soft) atmosphere in MTF once a year... it's like MTF's own christmas.
And a white christmas it is.
