This guy clears it all up if you had any confusion.
This summary works perfectly for the final season. Maybe the back half of season 5 as well. However, pretty much everything from the first 4 seasons is ignored in the new narrative.
The entire tone of the show changed and the writers seemed to abandon all the elements that they had weaved into the story.
The finale was good, but it didn’t fit this show. I wish this had been the finale for Battlestar Galactica instead. Lame.
I hate big decisions. I really really do. A decision means that something is going to be left behind. Whichever alternative you don’t pick is going to remain an abandoned possibility. A road never traveled. A future self you will never be.
I always wonder if the other choice would have been a better one.
Despite the fact that I moved 1000 miles from home on what boiled down to a whim, I am terrified by the idea of change. Whenever I’m faced with a life altering choice I find myself frozen in indecision. The move was a fluke.
When you’re young choices are simple: peanut butter and jelly or grilled cheese, play outside or build a fort out of blankets. As you get older choices have more meaning. The consequences spiral out of control into your future. Every new choice has wide reaching impact on your future and who you will be. Where will you work, or live? Will you go to school? Where? What will you study? Who will you date and be friends with?
There are no easy answers. No one makes choices for you, and if they do, they’re frequently the wrong ones. The ridiculous thing that I think most of us forget is that change is necessary. If there is any aspect of your life that you are dissatisfied with then the only way to improve it is with conscious decisions and change.
We don’t have the luxury of a time machine or a crystal ball. So it is usually impossible to see what effect something will have on your life. But if we knew the outcome to everything where would be the fun?
So….. should I take a pointless transfer at work?

So…. I feel compelled to write something about the Series Finale of Lost, but I haven’t been able to find the motivation to keep up with this season. I’d like to say that I’ve had better things to do with my time, but that’s not even true. The better things have consisted of watching Arrested Development, Farscape and Venture Bros.
Its bizarre that I feel almost guilty that I have failed to keep up on this show. I’ve watched so far, so I must complete it right? Eventually.
I have to say its pretty silly that I see tons of comments everywhere about how beautiful the finale was, how much people cried, and how it was the perfect ending but then they say they didn’t understand it and are asking others for help figuring out what happened. YOU CANT HAVE IT BOTH WAYS buddy. Pick confusion or beauty.
So for those of you who have watched the entire show start to finish, are you glad you’ve spent over 130 hours of your life watching this show?
Were you disappointed with the end?
If you watched a few seasons and quit, does this encourage you to catch up now that its over?

I am a really boring person sometimes. I can fill days and weeks with watching reruns of old tv shows while sitting on my couch. Forget nail biting, or neglecting laundry. This is my worst habit, wasting time. What’s worse than just wasting the time is that I complain that nothing exciting is happening in [...]
If you own this cat, it is certainly a blessing. You always have fluffy entertainment. I don’t even usually like cats, but I want this one. This cat is clearly awesome. This morning we have some amusing videos for you to enjoy. Nice low key entertainment. You’re welcome. Kitty has a spectacular vertical leap! Squish [...]
“So often times it happens that we live our lives in chains And we never even know we have the key” ~Already Gone by The Eagles It’s pretty easy to get stuck in a routine. Weeks blend together and you feel trapped in the necessity of earning the bi-weekly paycheck and the general upkeep of [...]
We live in an age filled with wonderful distractions. 300 cable channels at your fingertips to flip through and still nothing is on. At least DVR was invented so that if you plan ahead you will never be without TV. If the television isn’t your particular interest there is always the internet. Some of you [...]
“Man invented language to satisfy his deep need to complain. ~Lily Tomlin I would be lying if I said I didn’t complain. I do. Frequently. In fact if my mouth is moving there is at least a 40% chance the words falling out are some kind of “complaint”. I tend to rant about lousy things [...]
We all have things in our lives we’d like to change. Some things we have control of, and many things we don’t. Being unable to control our circumstances doesn’t mean these things won’t change, it just means we have to be patient. Being patient isn’t just waiting though. The only thing you can really change, [...]
Weekends are a bit like rainbows; they look good from a distance but disappear when you get up close to them. ~John Shirley My weekend has been a whirlwind of insanity. It is for this reason that I regret to inform you that this is not a usual Monday morning update. This is a cop [...]
