Thoughts on the show "13 reasons why"
Before I begin, let me warn people that haven't heard of this show that it is dark and all kinds of messed up.
[spoiler=Synopsis]The series follows socially awkward Clay as he listens to casette tapes left behind by Hannah, who recently comitted suicide. In those tapes, she states 13 reasons why she did it. [/spoiler]
On that cheerful note, please remember the existence of <<hypnohub.net/forum/show/44668|the reference for those in need thread>>. If you haven't clicked the spoiler and haven't watched the show, you know what you're in for now.

I'm only 3 episodes in right now. It's bringing back all those memories about the absolute ugliest parts of highschool, but at the same time I remember that hey, I got through it. I got through it pretty well even with [spoiler=similar situations]stuff like guys grabbing my ass after some rumour and me spinning right around delivering the hardest sounding slap you've ever heard[/spoiler], and all I can think so far is how bad people are at communicating in this show - but not because of writing flaws, no, because of character flaws. That's strong writing and I am impressed by that.

Stil, I can't help but dislike H. ... She's socially apt, not stupid, makes friends very easily, but she can't figure out that C. isn't built that way. Not everyone knows how to pick up on those social cues you know. And there are some [spoiler=inconsistencies]inconsistencies like her being brave/angry enough to storm into the boy's locker room but not brave enough to slap that asshole's face off when he gropes her in the liqor store[/spoiler].

Have you watched it? On Netflix, apparently there's no "if you're in need" message at viewing it there, but I don't know if that's true. Did you like the show?

Do you think my opinion will change throughout viewing, or no?

Personally, I don't mind spoilers for this show, but for others remember you can put it between a spoiler tag :) thanks!

I've heard it's emotionally manipulative.

Sounds like another SJW propaganda show to me.

Going by a few comments I've seen I think it's the third coming.

Haha. LTM just couldn't stay away it seems

As for the show I just found the concept to be really gross. I've unfortunately met people who use threats of suicide to manipulate people. "If you don't do this then I'll have to kill myself and it'll be all your fault" sort of thing. They're all still alive and out of my life BTW. But this show with someone explaining why it's other people's fault they killed themselves just seems to encourage that

Although full disclosure I haven't actually seen it so I might just be judging a book by it's cover. Or a show by it's synopsis

As it got on further I had more of a problem caring. I mean in the first ,I wanna say half, I could somewhat sympathize with the narrator's point of view. Basically the stuff there was stuff that amounted to, "This probable didn't mean much to most and probably wouldn't have had as much of an impact on me had it not been for this other shit that was going on as well." The problem for me was later on it started to grate on me since there were things that cropped up that really made no sense why secrecy and an attempt at guilting people post-mortem would be the way to go about it.

THE DARK ONE

THE DARK ONE CAUSED FIRE AND MADNESS, DARKNESS AND CHAOS THROUGHOUT THE LAND, SEWING DESTRUCTION WHEREVER IT WENT. THE COMBINED POWER OF THE ELDERS WERE ABLE TO SEAL ITS FLAME AWAY BUT NOT TRULY BANISH

LEGENDS TELL THAT THE DARK ONE WILL RISE AGAIN IN 2000 YEARS, AND ALL WILL BE LOST. WE PREPARE FOR THAT DAY WITH DILIGENCE AND TEMPERAMENT, BUT DAY BY DAY HIS INFLUENCE SPREADS THROUGHOUT US. WE MUST STAND TOGETHER, OR ELSE WE MAY ALL BE DOOMED.
