all right now; baby it's all right now.

[semisweet]

because i am a ridiculous baby, i'm not watching the AI results live tonight. partially because i will be watching the office(!!!!!!!!!!!), but mostly because i am, as i've mentioned, a ridiculous baby.

so, a request: I ONLY WANT TO BE CONTACTED WITH GOOD NEWS RE: AI TONIGHT. if dcook is in the bottom and you're freaking out, please, don't tell me. i don't want to know. if he is safe and you're all \o/ a text is totally fine, but srsly, plz, don't text me all "OMG NOOOOOOOOO." if i haven't heard anything, i plan on peeking at the internet with one eye at 9:59 8:59.

yes, i am aware (i already said it twice!) that i am fucking ridiculous.

in other, mildly related news, jacob really needs to get switched to a different show or something, omg. the mod note at the top of the dcook thread keeps getting longer and longer, lol. i mean, i know, I KNOW, twop is not a fansite, but jesus christ, he really just doesn't want people posting at all, i think. and it's stupid because other than being kind of fangirly, the thread is really fairly calm, idk. most of the stuff he mentions hasn't happened. it's weird.

NAUGHTY REACTIONS! YOUTUBE OBSESSIONS! If your post is mostly about the feelings that you have when you think about David Cook, what you would like to do to him, the exact date on which you finally realized your feelings about him, how many times you have watched him on the show or YouTube, or how conflicted you are about any the foregoing, just step away from the computer and chill out, because this is neither a fan club nor a support group. This thread is about David Cook -- not what's going on with your junk, or lecturing everybody that disagrees with you about how amazing he is.

LAST EXIT TO COOKIELAND! This is a discussion website about television. It is not a fan club, and it is not group therapy. If you really need to share the way that David makes you feel, or the number of times you've voted, or who you've loved on past seasons of the show, or what you're wearing, or what you had for breakfast, get a blog. If you are interested in starting a fan club on this thread about how much fun we're all having talking about how great David is, you need to take it somewhere else. This thread is for the show, and for David. Not for fandom, and not for fandom grudges.

HE'S AT #4! NOW IT'S #5! THIS IS SO INTERESTING! Voting updates, iTunes updates, DialIdol ... guys, we've been through this. It's not a chatroom and it's not worth liveblogging that stuff. Take it to that thread if you really need to talk about it.

The rules of the site haven't changed. Ever. They've always been this way. However, because of the activities of certain overzealous posters, this year and in years previous, you need to understand that this thread and a couple others are going to be patrolled more carefully and more strictly, because the crazy has broken out. There's not going to be a People's Republic of Cook. That's not happening. Feel free to go forth and start one elsewhere, but diversity of opinion on this site is a priority. If you can't handle that, it's really not the thread for you. Read the Site FAQ, read the forum Q&A threads, and keep this post in mind when you're commenting. Thanks.

hey, jacob?

hee ty bb! i just...i'm nervous anyway, i don't want to look, and if i can just get all my stress over in one fell swoop, that's the plan. :P

lately twop has been fairly pro-cookie, but jacob is such a nazi that most of the love gets deleted or edited or whatever, and people end up tiptoeing around.
