Should Dora go out with Jim?
TheEvilDog:
But we also see moments when the rest of the cast throw their own insults at Faye. They rarely put up with her shit for long and will call her out on it.

I don't think it was intentional. She was clearly attracted to him,and fo all we know this was her first attempt to get close to someone since ditching her "problems" and moving north. I think what we saw was someone starting a mating dance, and suddenly finding herself unable to go through with it - and also suddenly realizing why.
--- Quote ---And if she was so unable to have a relationship, why was she somehow able to fuck her friend's brother? How convenient. Screwing with Dora and screwing over Marten at the same time. Clever.

No, not clever, but typical. She started therapy and suddenly swung to the other end of the pendulum, diving into a purely physical relationship. It didn't work either.
--- Quote ---...I get that Marigold was never gonna be with Angus, but leave it to Faye to rub some nice salt in Mari's wounds. Marigold is a far better woman than I. I would not even talk to Faye.

Maybe I missed that - are you talking about the party, and Faye's "Oh shit, she knows!" moment? Because before that, she was trying to protect Marigold's feelings.
--- Quote ---In other words, if I met someone like Faye in real life, it would get ugly fast. She'd probably pick on me for being shy/weird, and act like a total bitch.
So yeah, I hate her.

I can see that. I know people like both Mari and Faye. Neither is better than the other, but it's rare that they can get along.
questionablecontentfan:
I actually wanted to jump through the screen and choke Faye when she snarked about the "easily manipulated, passive" (or something thereabouts) Penelope she'd come to know.
Yeah, I hate Faye. I can see I'm not alone in that either, though I don't think anyone here hates her quite as much as I do. I'm proud of it too. I guess Jeph Jacques would be pleased that his character could spur such emotions, but truthfully, I don't know how fictional Faye really is. His rendering of her seems to recall a person he really knew.
questionablecontentfan:
I guess I'm protective of my fellow shy/awkward ladies, and seeing a bitch like Faye picking on them gets me like nothing else.
Protect Marigold's feelings? *laughs uncontrollably*
Um, yeah, Marigold is much better than Faye. And generally speaking, cool, interesting people like Marigold ARE much better than manipulative, cowardly, evil bitches like Faye.
Not to be sexist, but as a woman, I think I have a better understanding of how truly shitty it feels to be on the receiving end of someone like Faye's nastiness. And that's why I hate the bitch so much.

But consider Jeph's view quoted at the end of the "Conduct" sticky thread at the top of this forum. It goes like this (my emphasis):
--- Quote from: jeph on 16 Dec 2010, 02:21 ---For what it's worth, I don't care if people overanalyze things. I mean, I think it's stupid, and they're wrong 99% of the time, but that's kind of what forums are FOR. It's the stupid arguing, the creepy character-fetishization, and the "I hate character X no matter what and will drag this into every single discussion" idiocy that I have a problem with.
