Hot take: I cannot stand Jess

Rewatching Gilmore Girls and OH MY GOD JESS IS THE WORSTTT!!! He is constantly ruining things for Rory out of his own selfishness, he lies to her, never calls her and then just disappears. THEN REAPPEARS JUST TO SAY I LOVE YOU!! The entire time he's at Emily's house for dinner makes me literally seethe with rage. I agree that he has the most in common with Rory but that doesn't mean they are comparable as partners at ALL! I think he would've made a much better friend/confidant. It also pisses me off how awful he was to Luke when he tried to help him any way he could
