You're angry that the show tried to pair Sami with her rapist and make them a rootable couple, no? As a result of this anger, some of the Lumi fans decided to give that pairing a witty little nickname -- "rapemi." In doing so, some of those fans also began referring to the Ejami fanbase as the "rapemi's," pronounced out loud as "rape me's." Call the pairing whatever you want. Call 'em the "rape me 'til I bleed to death anally on the floor" couple. I really don't care. But giving the fanbase that same name is very tacky to me. More tacky than "Lumitics" or "Eholes." JMO. |

Well...you can't really be outraged at GG about that without directing some outrage at Joel McHale. And I will never direct outrage at Joel McHale. |

You said it, not me. Can I add that to my signature? ;) LoL. I kid, I kid. But seriously, I'm not saying you're wrong or that I'm right. I'm just sharing my opinion. |

What Galen said wasn't close to what Howard Stern & his crew were saying about Clark & that other ass wipe ryan seacrest. It was brutal-but hilarious. I like Galen & he's kinda right. Why is someone who can't speak clearly, commentating. And who even watches that crap in the first place? |

My guess is that there are people from all fanbases who use those names in more malicious ways than others. The derrogatory couple names don't bother me for some reason. You know what drives me crazy? When people consistenly refuse to use a character's name. My own fanbase did it to a character for a while (probably to a few different ones at several different points, but there's one in particular I'm thinking of) and it drove me up the wall. So people really dig Dick Clark, huh? Edited by lysie, Jan 5 2010, 04:48 PM.

I think I was watching it too, but I had a little too much champagne to really notice any counting mistakes ;) But I really don't think what Galen tweeted was a big deal at all, and it should especially not affect his job at DAYS ... and I say that as someone who doesn't give a shit about DAYS anymore. |

You mean at all? Like, calling someone "the interloper" or whatever? Or do you mean calling him or her by a non-show-sanctioned nickname--a name, but not their proper name? Don't ask me why this has me so intrigued, lol. |

I understand aimee! Funny...I never thought I had such thick skin when it came to people calling names, but I guess I do. I find Rapemi kind of humorous...clever play on the names and it is fitting to boot! But really, it's all in the same mean spirit as Bryan's "manboobs" or Ari's mole. It's petty stuff. And just like those who are referred to as Rapemis are upset about the name, so are those who are offended that a rapist and his victim are potentially paired. I understand that. However, since EJ and Sami have never had a realtionship that wasn't fake, there really shouldn't be a name for them, should there? ;) |

Huh! Did James ever apologize to the Lumis for that or did he just leave it at, "It's just a soap." For the record I still suspect someone swiped Galen's phone at a party and had fun with his twitter page. I'm basing my opinion on the fact that its not his style to tweet so often in such a short period of time and the fact that he hadn't even been back to tweet since New Years day. Whoever tweeted that stuff, while I didn't find his comments funny I didn't disagree with them either. Now I need to get the images of Dick Clark and the starfish position out of my mind. :shame: |

I mostly meant at all, like "the interloper" or "the rapist" (for 500, Alex) or "the kidnapper." But I've seen people do the other (though I can't think of an example), and that gets on my nerves, too. And I can't lie...it drives me crazy when people call Sami "Samantha." That goes for people on the boards and EJ, but mostly people on the boards (depending on the context). She doesn't go by that. LOL. I have a real hang up on names for some reason. But the main reason for "the interloper", etc. issue is that those names could apply to anyone and often they apply to other people within the same storyline. Sometimes it fits with the flow of conversation, but other times people are just pissed at a character who's opposite their favorite and they just won't let them have a name. |

LOL, I suppose you have a point there. I have only ever used the name rapemi on Second Chances, where those who might be offended would not be expected to read it, since you know, its a LUMI board. On other boards, I usually refer to them as EJ/Sami, EJ and Sami. But really ... why does it matter? I thought we were talking about Galen's offensive tweets and James offensive middle finger. :flipoff: |
