*Disclaimer: There are alot of strong feelings in this post, as well as ALOT OF CAPS BECAUSE I FREAKED OUT DURING THE FINALE.

Last we left Jonathan, it was revealed he is the father of Elena.  Dirt bag.

Did 21sts century Stefan get a nose job?  His 1864 nose is a bit buttony and teddy bear-ish.  It might just be the vampire in him, or that he grew into his nose.  People do change, after all. 

Oh, there’s hot Damon!  “I get it. I’m the better, hotter, superior choice.” True.

Elena and Caroline look like extras from A Christmas Carol. It doesn’t help that they’re on a float in a town square.

Can you imagine involving yourself in a vampire hunt with the Mayor?  I don’t know if I’d be able to take my boss seriously if given the task of capturing vampires.   And there’s a SWAT team?  Oh wait, it’s a vampire SWAT team.   This is getting messy.

Damon is so in love with Elena.  He’s standing up to Jeremy on her behalf.  This is so bad.  Stefan is so gentle.  “Damon turned Vicki.  I killed her.” Gasp!  

Jonathan just punched Caroline’s mom and handcuffed her unconscious ass to a table.  Cripes, man.  You’re an animal.  Something tells me this round-up of his will go terribly wrong.

Oh, fireworks!

The contraption!!! It’s working on the vampires!  Wait, Tyler‘s a vampire? And the mayor is too?  Did they not know it?

No, Jonathan! Don’t kill Anna!

I don’t want Damon to die! I love him!

“Life sucks either way, Jeremy.  At least if you’re a vampire you don’t have to feel bad about it if you don’t want to.” Damon’s feelings are surfacing, after so many years of apathy and violence. I love him now more than the first time I laideth eyes on him.

Whoa, Jeremy.  What are you doing with that vial of Anna’s blood?  WHOA JEREMY YOU ARE GOING AGAINST EVERYTHING THE GILBERT NAME STANDS FOR! YOU ARE BECOMING A VAMPIRE IN THE NAME OF PAIN AND SORROW!

I’m so jealous that Damon kissed Elena on the cheek.  Elena, you scamp.  Do not kiss Damon. Elena, you are breaking Stefan’s heart.  And mine.

HOLY MOLY.  HOLY VAMPIRE.  What just happened? Did that actually just happen? I can’t….I need a moment.

Ok, I’m ok.  I can’t believe Katherine is back and just killed Jonathan (or did she?) I’m having a hard time putting words together.  I don’t know what to think, what to say.  For a split second, I thought Elena was Katherine the entire season.  I saw the eyes go crackly, and I stopped breathing for a wee bit.  Then I saw Elena open the door and realized that there was still hope.  I can’t believe that just happened.  Torlone and I are passed out and cannot revive ourselves.  We have to wait all summer to find out what happens? I hate summer.

Poor Jeremy.  Soon to be a vampire.  Soon to break his family’s heart.

Leave your thoughts and theories on the finale in the comments section.  I really need for you to share with me.  What are the Mayor and his son, Tyler, if not human? Why did the device affect them? And what will become of Caroline? And Damon looked puzzled, standing there on the porch after Elena/Katherine went inside.  He must have known something.

Now what the f#$k am I going to do all summer?  Watch Pretty Little Liars, that’s what.  Ok, now off to analyze the scenes on Yidio.
