Ben Appreciation Thread

edited May 2014 in The Walking Dead
I know this is extremely irrelevant, and there's probably already one out there, but I just replayed Episode 4 and had to.
For the record, I now look back and feel bad for Ben. I see him as a stupid kid who was only trying to help...
And that we should take one final moment to feel for Ben.

To Ben!
That poor fuckin' shitbird...

    It honestly makes me really sad that Ben died. It makes me sad that anyone who wasn't evil died. Rest in piece most of our group.

    Ben's death either way was so gruesome...

    He caused the deaths of five people, Katjaa, Duck (I don't like him, but he's still just a boy.) Carley/Doug, Chuck, and Brianna. Idgaf if he "needs someone to love", because guess what, so did Lee and Ben just fucking kills Carley! Kenny needed love too, so he kills his family! Chuck sacrificed himself to save Clem, Ben just ran away from her. How can you forgive someone who doesn't care about killing kids. He always tries to keep his promise about "helping" but he makes shit more fucked! Episode 5 he ended killing Kenny, (we all thought Kenny was dead, don't lie.) So all you fangirls who fap to Ben just get this through your skull.

    "No matter what you think, he is a good boy."
    Even though that's meant for Nick, it works so well for Ben too.

    He caused those deaths completely by accident. You say that he outright killed all of those people as if he put the gun to their heads and pulled the trigger himself. He was a fuck up, a huge fuck up and a coward, but he never meant for any of that stuff to happen. He definitely cares for Clem. Running away was a shitty thing to do, but he never wanted Clem to die. And as for Kenny, that scene was all on Kenny. Kenny chose to stay behind completely of his own free will, Ben never made him do anything. And that last sentence? Completely uncalled for.

    Ben came out as one of my favorite characters. I liked him since his appearance in episode two. He reminded me of myself, constantly trying to do the right thing but to afraid or too scared to try. I also find people kind of hypocritical if they say that it's horrible for Crawford to get rid of people who can't pull their own weight or they're too young and still drop Ben. You just did exactly what Crawford was doing, and either way, it's not a good thing to do.

    Ben did feel remorse for getting people accidentally killed. It's why he told Kenny in the first place. When he runs away from Clem it's because he's to afraid of the walkers to help, it's like my fear of heights, if someone was hanging from a cliff for me, I'm not sure I would run over to pull him up, I'd be too scared to do anything but run, because that's a natural instinct for me.

    Ben never actually killed anyone, just made some poor choices. Also, Ben DEFINITELY did not "just fucking kill Carley", that was Lilly, when she shot Carley. Also, did you really just blame Ben for a balcony collapsing and impaling him. He had nothing to do with Kenny's "death". That was Kenny's plan, not Ben's. The only part Ben had in the plan was getting impaled through the chest.

    Cares for Clem? Last time I told him to watch her she followed me around the block to look for boats! #AroundEveryCorner.
