The night of finale I was in the minority of people that actually wanted to discuss the finale rather than whine and a complain about it or Lynch or "the destruction of Twin Peaks." The dissenting opinion actually appears to be the one that liked the finale, not the one that dislikes it.
The opposite of "you don't get Lynch," is "no one could possibly have liked that part, the finale, etc," which I've seen bandied about.
Here, here. I don't work in an office anymore; I count fir trees on mountains. Not even any cell towers, so I only get stabs of time now and then to be involved on this forum. I, too, would have gladly discussed the finale that night, but the prevailing mood was ugly here. It felt like the (convenience store) forum. I didn't realize there were people signing up just to vent. What a strange thing to do.
A funny thing. I remember when we all went to see Blue Velvet in Chicago in the theater (when was that, wow...'86?). Half were elated. The other half, not so much. Discussions, arguments. The eternal "you don't get Lynch" got leveled from the superiors in the group--me included, I think--such a dumb thing to say. Who the hell does get Lynch! 🙂
I personally was in no state of mind to "discuss" it. I felt like I had just been puked up by the mother experiment. I was PISSED to say the least. And confused. And hurt. It took some time (and a few drinks) but I've processed through a lot of that now and to realize my anger was really more towards myself and my expectations.
I do apologize if I was any part of ruining your forum experience.
However, I do not apologize for my reactions and feelings. Love it or hate it, that was a hard pill to swallow.

Apologie-schmologie. No, hopefully you'll be glad to know that you're pretty damn consistent how you carry yourself (take it in a good way). 🙂 The melee of crabby owls, as noted by another poster, were the cause of my consternation. There's a clear difference between long-time posters who have an established method and modus op-er-an-di *over-pronounced* and a flock of convenience store visitors who just arrive to contribute creamed corn piles and then disappear. Ew.
That many of us want some kind of resolution/answer speaks volumes about Lynch and Frost as story and character creators. That we feel so strongly - love, hate, anger, admiration, frustration - about their work is the ultimate compliment you can pay an artist, as the worst fate would be indifference.
It does seem a lot of folks came out of the woodwork (drawer knobs perhaps?). I was wondering who all these people were and where they had been for the last 16ish weeks. Oh now everyone decides to put in there 2 cents?
there is no 'delete'
the only way is forward

Or to the right, or the left. Or maybe to just stop and stand in place.
I'm all about newcomers and I love different opinions and viewpoints. I would just like to try to understand......
You weren't a part of what I was referring to, Brandy. There was a plethora a F*ck you Lynch threads and a lot of knee-jerk existential despair threads filled with so much negative energy. Your 5 stages thread isn't really negative, it's a reflection of your initial reaction. It didn't read knee-jerk, but as composed as you could be at the time.
You might have to define poison cuz I'm not very good at reading between the lines or properly interpreting for others.
You have spouted no poison.
Probably some troll with nothing better to do creating fake profiles.
