Ugh, I know, WHY? It was just one dumb decision of many which occurred in season 9, but it felt like a middle finger. So did the deaths of the LGM, but to me that one felt like a middle finger followed by a bag of flaming dog poo on the front porch. It felt like Chris Carter pulling the William Shatner "DON'T YOU PEOPLE HAVE LIVES!?" sketch from SNL, but for real.

Thanks! I hope to actually get some time to write my fic soon.
