Does anyone else hate Claire.
I hate her accent (don't get me wrong i like Australians)
All she does is moan about her baby
"Moi bayay!"
God i hope the others get her and give her a beating.
Sorry had to get that off my chest.

Im so with you.....Her and charlie are the perfect couple because they both irriate the living daylights out of me!
Not sure Bint is the correct term though, she is like the Austrailian version of a chav (whatever that may be?), Single mother, stupid accent, all she is missin is a pair of addidas poppa bottoms, burberry and her trackies tucked into her socks.
Wheres ma bayyyyyyybeee!!!:rolleyez:

I used to love Claire. She was one of my favorites. Then she got kidnapped. And she became an idoit slash snob. Charlie was only trying to help Aaron but she went and threw a hissy-fit. She and Locke belong together because I used to like them both but then they went and lost their brains. [/rant]

I'm not a big fan of Claire or Charlie, but I think she has the right to go on the way she does at him. After he tried to take her baby it's gonna take a lot to make her trust him again.
In response to the thread title, no I don't think having trust issues qualifies her as a "bint".
I also don't agree with the person who classed her as a "chav", one of the reasons being she's a single mother. Remember, that it wasn't exactly her choice - Thomas walked out on her.

02-13-06, 12:13 AM
Being a single mother wasn't my primary reason for calling her a chav, although in cases it does at least partly qualify on some of the estates near me!
I apologise to any single mothers who, took this to heart...you have a tough job and im with ya!
I still want to rip out my eardrums whenever i hear claire tho!

I didn't realize that I was in the minority for loving Claire. Is she really that bad?
I find Claire to be a breath of fresh air. She's almost the only one who reacts to events the way I would expect. She's also adorable, and pretty much the only castaway who hasn't murdered, conned, or betrayed anyone.

Well that's true, as far as we know right now. All of our castaways have pasts and TPTB haven't delved all that much into Claires at this point. Who knows what may turn up when they do? I'm actually hoping that nothing dark comes from her backstory. I like Claire but in all that's going on, she'd be easy to lose in the background if it weren't for Aaron and the hobbit.

02-13-06, 06:07 AM
I like both Claire and Emilie de Ravin, but I am waiting to see what makes her relevant to the island - other than Aaron.
Right now the thing that comes to mind as a big question mark is her memories of her abduction and escape. As it stands right now, it would seem that Ethan and unnamed others/Others kidnapped Claire and hung Charlie. Then at some point after that, Danielle liberated Claire. And that after that, Claire freed herself from Danielle and made her way back in the general direction of the survivors (beach camp? caves? all we know is that Locke and Boone weren't too far from it).
So what brought the on the memory loss? Did Claire remained in the possesion of the others for days and then just hours in Danielle's hands, and if so, what caused the amnesia and when? Or was it the other way around, and maybe Danielle used drugs on Claire that caused the amnesia?
..., stupid accent, ...
Excuse my ignorance but what makes an accent "stupid" or "smart"?

Hi again, Donny2006! Welcome to the community. Please spend a few minutes reading the Welcome forum for important information. Also please note that netspeak (such as the use of "u" for "you" and omitted capitalization of words) is not allowed here, as stated therein and as mentioned previously (http://www.losttv-forum.com/forum/showpost.php?p=369642&postcount=6) by juanbong.
As far as Claire's accent, I think I understand what you mean in the sense that I have a similar problem with Michelle Rodríguez speech pattern (aka accent). But then again... Emilie de Ravin (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0211087/) is Australian and that is her accent. Is it the character or the actress who irritate you? or, as is the case with me in regards to MR, maybe her speech pattern?
Donny2006

I love her accent. Then again, I love most accents, and Australian is high on the list.
You cannot necessarily say that she is emphasizing the accent on every word, when it is within the actress's natural mode of speech. She is not trying to force a speech pattern. It is completely natural.
I understand though if the Australian accent distracts you from her character. There are certain speech patterns that will do the same for me.

I also love her accent. I think its cute - when she's not pissed off. It sounds awkward when she's angry. Claire herself... ehh. I used to like her. A lot. She was my favorite character next to Kate. Then she got kidnaped and everything changed. Her personality changed a bit because Charlie was ontop of her and it annoyed her. She got more defensive and protective and that was her downfall. I don't know if y'all have always hated Claire or if you just started. I know she annoys me slightly because of her overprotectiveness but you can't really blame her. I mean, she's a single mother on an island with crazy Others, polar bears, and a button that has to be pressed every 108 minutes. I think I would be defensive too.
you hate Claire because of her accent?! Ummm, I don't think Emilie can help that. You think she moans about her baby? well, look what she had to go through. She has a baby on a friggin craphole island! Do you expect her to be all happy after she got kidnapped by people, and she don't even remember what they did to her or her baby.

That sounds about right.
I just hate her because i have no real reason to like her at all.
If you can give me 230m reasons to like her than i will.
But can only find 0.

I love her looks:love2: and her accent as well. I'm a sucker for accents, for some reason it's a real turn on when girls have ana ccent. Australian & Irish are on the top of my list.
Anyways, I don't think she's reacting to anything on the island much differently that most people would.
Wouldn't you get protective your baby, if someone tried to kidnap it again and again? I know I would..
Claire has been a breath of fresh air among the Losties. I've always regretted that they don't show more of her as a person. Her only story line seems to center around her role as a mother.But in a way it was the same with Michael,his only purpose was in connection with Walt.
Her problem with Charlie is his fault for being too possessive and ,of course endangering her baby.He moved in and took over her life,behaving as though Aaron was his child and he had the rights of a father. She needed time,sometime he's not willing to give.

She is a very good looking lady and everything but she opens her mouth too wide when talking.
Hehe bint is the perfect description of Claire when she's whining about her baybeeeey.... "My baaabyyys been kidnapped" "My baabbeeees ill". For Gods sake give it a rest woman. If I had that in my ear all day I'd put the pimp hand into action, possibly with the pimp glove as backup in case things got out of hand. I mean whining that her newborn baby is in danger is pure cheek, selfish in fact. She should just dropkick Aaron off a cliff to save the viewers from that 2 seconds screeching, in fact all mothers should do that to save the general public from the bother, and the world would be a better place.

Why do so many fans complain about characters who are emotional over their child or children's possible danger? Characters like Claire and Michael? Is it because they don't adhere to the "cool" factor and fans cannot deal with them being emotional? Especially over their children? If so, why?

You know, when you give birth in a place that's filled with dirt, rocks, twigs and God knows how long it's been since ANYONE has had a bath...infection is just around the corner.
You know, there's about a 50% mortality rate of both the baby and the mother, when not giving birth at a hospital (at leat, that's what I have learned)

50% chance? Whew. I don't know if 50% counts as a miracle even if it was true. But let's take some time to think about it.
About, say, a hundred years ago, people didn't go to hospitals to give birth. Yet, somehow, the population was growing steadily.
An expectant mother would have a 50% chance of surviving, and so would the baby. That would mean that the chances of both the mum and the baby surviving the birth would be 25%, right? Chances of a mother giving birth to two children who both survive (and the mother surviving both births) would be 6.25%. Chances of three successful births would be 1.5625%. For the population to grow there has to be at least two live children per female, right? If the chance of both mother and babies surviving is that low, how in the world did the population grow?
Most diseases don't even have a 50% mortality rate. If that 50% was true, it would be more likely to survive malaria than pregnancy without hospital care.
In Britain, approximately 1 in 10,000 mothers die giving birth in hospitals. For the life of me, I cannot believe that the chance of dying giving birth somewhere else would be 1 in 2.

Kate is screwed up in her own way, just like everyone else. And I seem to recall her getting hysterical, especially in early S1, everytime she thought something had happened to Jack. Just because Claire gets emotional about Aaron's well-being, doesn't mean that she's not strong.
Or do you think that being strong means being "cool" or keeping one's emotions to a minimum?

Donny2006, if you've ventured outside of this forum, you must have noticed that a lot of the posters are sarcastic. Why, in this very same thread Homer Noodleman is being sarcastic! I, little fragile flower of feminity that I am, I am also sarcastic when the occasion calls for it... or when I feel like it... or when the sun comes out on the East.
My totally unsolicited advice to you, then, is that you may consider refraining to acknowledging sarcastic posts and posters. Such a course of action will undoubtably make it much easier on you to remain on good standing vis-a-vis the forum guidelines -which, I feel dutybound to add, require respect for fellow posters but say nothing about abstaining oneself from the use of sarcasm, wit, irony, etc.

I dunno if it's the accent or the actual phrase of "My baby" that gets people annoyed, but if you had a baby on the island that was almost cut out of you, kidnapped twice and possibly nearly killed (Charlie's little psychosis) then yeah, I too would yell "My baby" alot. Being on an island with lunatics running around does grant some access to yelling about an infant that cannot protect itself. It's up to the mother to protect him, hence, the "My baby" Not knocking anyone here, but just merely suggesting that perhaps since she is the mother, carried the baby for nine months and delivered it on Mystery Island, where people kidnap and murder, then yeah I would be doing the same thing she would. I've had a baby before and I know how I would feel in those situations.

ok, I get all the reasons why she can't be much more of a hera... she's a mom, that's hera enough and although "my baaybe!" can be grating that's not my main problem with her ("Waaaaaaaaalt" was grating too, but also not the reason why I disliked Michael from the start almost). Yes, I understand she needs to protect her child and herself from drug addicts, and she needed some space and time to get acquainted with motherhood.
But she simply comes off as very spiteful, nearly always pouting and frowning, has incredibly long toes and seems to think of herself as a victim (they're all on craphole island ya know). She has bursts of meanness for nothing really, hissy fits and all. And yes, she reminds me a lot of Michael in that way. And it has nothing to do with being a parent imo. Claire doesn't do anything bad really, not much good either, but she simply comes off as mean spirited to me. I wouldn't miss her.

Claire doesn't do anything bad really, not much good either, but she simply comes off as mean spirited to me. I wouldn't miss her.
Well said! Until something else actually happens with that kid of hers, she's dead weight. :D

she's a mom, that's hera enough
Not when a billion other people are too. When 90% of the world's adult population is out there breeding, it's no more heroic than any other bodily function. It's extremely selfish.
And she's boring. http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o57/rangermelmel/prangdg4.gif

I'd say those billion other people are as heroic ;)

ok, I get all the reasons why she can't be much more of a hera... she's a mom, that's hera enough
What's a "hera?" Queen of the gods?
has incredibly long toes
What? The heck?
Claire was bright sunny character, which was nice contrast for the darker ones in the beginning.
TPTB have not put much effort in her , she's been degraded to nothing more than a pair of milk producing teats for Aaron and a love interest for Charlie.
As person she stopped having a good storyline the moment the kid popped into the world.
Micheal was an annoying lousy character and part of his problem was TBTB never gave him a sense of being apart from Walt.
See the sick Lost theme? Get pregnant and die, have kid an cease to be.....

Female hero ;) If I wanted to write about Zeus' wife I'd have written Hera
What? The heck?
An expression to mean a person is easily insulted

Sorry about that... I pretty much think in English and therefore sometimes forget whether an expression is a native Dutch one or not. :scratchch

Im really getting tired of Claire. Just taking up space, relegated to having a meaningless one liner every episode. I would personally prefer her to be written off of the show.

I've had enough of Claire and her screaming and her whining.
And her b-ayyyyy-beeeeeee....
MY BAYYYBEEEEEEEEE...... MY BAYYYBEEEEE... wheerreee's myyyyy bayyybeeee.... (reminds me of WALTT!! WAAAAALT! Wheres my son? Where's walt?? WAAALLTTT!! p.s. please kill Michael off too)
And Claire's irritating whining. "Shouldn't we all discuss this first?" (in regards to killing Ben. Just shut up, Claire.
Please, please, please kill Claire off. She's way too irritating!

Snarfy is a big fan of orphans LOL!
But seriously, she does annoy me too. "My baybee" is the version of Michael's "I'm gonna git my boy back."

I'm on board. The only problem is the island will have even more men and less women than before. Still if I had to nominate current characters who I wouldn't mind seeing killed off I would have to go with Claire, Rose, or Bernard.
Claire gonna DIE!!!!!!!!!!!

I think we'll eventually find out that Claire just got sick of being a parent, and gave Aaron to Kate to get him out of her hair.
I like Claire and loved C/C, but whenever she says "baby" I cringe.

Do the fans of this show have something against parents? Are they a part of some generation or fan base that want to stagnate in late adolescence and early adulthood . . . forever? Because I'm beginning to suspect so.
Whatever helps them sleep at night :D

Bint bint bint. I don't even know what that means, but i like it. :mad:
Claire IS a breath of fresh air among the losties! Her character is needed to
create a balance, almost similar to the balance Hurley provides.
Those baybees were required imo, with the plot that was going on at that
time. The baybee mocking is probably more due to Claire's accent.
You see, Annie, she's Australian and she can't even do the accent properly herself ! She sounds like Meryl Streep in "Evil Angels" - that was a shocking accent ! Claire is not a total "Ocker" ! She has quite a mild accent.
You are saying the baybees' weren't authentic? No wonder there is so much
baybee mocking.
Speaking of Claire, I'm starting to think of she and Sawyer as a great
couple. It started with his searching so diligently for her and the relief
when he saw she was okay. He risked his life. I just loved that scene.
Thoughts?
BTW, sorry for the t/j and there is another thread going on about the
possibility of this relationship.

You'll get only negative thoughts about Claire in here, best head over to the lust society. :D
But, yeah. Sawyer is the best for saving Claire. Kate dosen't know what she let go.
no one likes you OR your BAY-BEE!!!

Do you know what would be crazy? If Juliet was Christian's younger sister, making her Jack's and Claire's aunt. That would mean in "The Other Woman" Jack was kissing auntie. I didn't know where else to post this so I decided to post it here.

Humorous though. It will probably get combined with the Claire hate thread.

Whoops, I mean 'her'. Edited. :D
Anyway, I see where you're coming from, glo. I don't hate Claire, I just hate the way she's written. I think it's kind of sad that she's an original main character and Bernard is getting more screen action.

I think things will change now, though. Seeing Daddy shepherd and somehow abandoning Aaron.

Sounds good to me -- merging with Claire's hate thread in C&CD.
an accent is stupid when its emphasised on every word and when u get continuisly pissed off at it.
well in my eyes thats what makes it stupid.
as for smart. i have no idea.
You must have an accent, yes? I probably do, to you, as well. I betting that yours is more interesting and mine is akin to plain yogurt. :)
PEANAHT BATTAH!
I hope Claire dies next episode, I really do. I think it will be the first death in Lost that I actually cheer.
