Oh I ALWAYS answer, trying to win people round!
Hehe… Works with me, I always like hearing different opinions and what people see in things and characters. (Actually, I feel like I'm pretty easily influenced most of the time… There is the stuff I really love and stuff I really dislike, obviously, and my own opinions, but besides I'm always trying to see things from people's perspective. For instance, I can thoroughly agree with a Moffat hater's points, which will trigger my critical side and remind me of all the Moffat things that annoy me—but then if I stumble upon some great meta post, everything will start making sense again and my faith in Moffat will make one big leap… On good days I call it being open-minded, and on bad days I'm like "do you have a brain of your own, girl?")

(And *I* get paranoid that there are unanswered comments and people think I'm rude or don't care or... whatever. Oh the joys of online life...)
Haha, same here—though I try to do so many things online I often end up a few days late anyway ;) *high fives*

I have yet to read janie_aire's or lonewytch's... /o\
All the people doing such complex meta… I just don't know how you manage it. I don't follow that many meta people yet, but the complexity of the stuff to be found out there… Some is even too complex for my tastes—coming back to the layers point you made: personally, I like peering at the layers, but though I love mythology, literature, symbolism and that kind of thing, if I really overanalyse the show, I feel like I'll lose touch with the spirit. I truly admire people who can watch, enjoy the "surface" layer, and still see so deeply, though. *quiet awe*

XD I can get so RAMBLY about my opinions. A little alarming.
Er… I just remembered you'll get three alerts because I edited this twice… Okay, that's embarrassing. XD
