When I first came to this site, I learned real fast that it was Pip
and Grey Wolf against all the other listees. They alone defended with
nail and teeth to keep this theory afloat, and it took nail and teeth
to do it. All the other listees seemed *bent* on sinking it. I
always wondered why. Why this theory? I sat back and watched to see
why. I never learned. All I knew is that MD is an underdog in my
mind. It has been hit from every angle, and it has survived. No one
but Pip and Grey would stick up for it.
So when I saw PRESSURE COOKER emerge and then Pippin aimed a canon to
destroy MD, well I jumped on board. From my perspective, the other
listees saw MD as the prize to break. The one theory in TBAY that
everyone is just dying to see proven wrong. Oh and there *will* be a
party if it is I am sure.
How do you think that makes us feel? We get defensive not because no
one else can see things from the chosen perspective, but because they
don't want the perspective to exist at all.
I did not then, nor do I now, see MD as this menacing theory that is
undestroyable. I see it as a theory that deserves to be defended so
strongly and fiercely because everyone seems to want it to fall hard
and flat.
Me:
I like MD very much. It's very cool, I think it makes a lot of sense, and it's very appealing to me. I've read Pip's original posts, but not too many of those arguing for and against it, but I'm working on that.
To me, it's one of the most interesting and thought-through theories in this fandom. And I think that I will be at least a little upset if it really does fall through in the future books.
