So I'm on the boards today doing my usual bragging about how awesome Spixie- Spinelli and Maxie the new super couple of GH are, and I come across a lot of nasty Spinelli threads. People are calling him a freak, spaz, the devil, really any nasty name you can possibly come up with they're using them to attack Spinelli. Seeing as that this is my 3rd post about Spinelli, you're probably wondering why I'm so protective of a fictional soap opera character.
Like I've said previously I see myself in Spinelli, I was bullied for years . It got really bad when I entered Middle School, it was a daily occurrence. School was pretty much a living hell for me. I had nobody to confide in except for my mom and the faculty members at my school. The principal that was working at the time didn't do anything to stop what was going on. My mom and my teacher we're the only 2 people who really fought for me during this period. I think Spinelli definitely went through something similar when he was in grade school. I think it's the reason why he can't make connections with his own peers. Spinelli finds that adults are the ones he can confide in the most.
Now I don't confide in a mobster like Spinelli does, HAHA but I do have a lot of adults in my life who I know I can count on to offer me strength and give me advice when I need it. It is comforting to know that Spinelli does have one very, very special friend Maxie Jones. She seems to be the one person who has understood Spinelli and yet has loved him through his differences. I tune into GH everyday to see Spinelli and Maxie in scenes together, it makes me happy to know that Spinelli has her love and guidance to count on.

Anna- I think it's great you feel so strong about the character of Spinelli. I think people bash Spinelli because people would rather see Maxie with someone else. Someone "better." I think that's stupid but I also think thats how a lot of people think. And I think it's easy for people to bash Spinelli because he has strange-like tendencies. I think there is always going to be bashing of some sort against a particular character but I think Spinelli is an easy target for most people.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what if I'm saying makes much sense but, thought I'd comment.
