I have made a blog post wondering which Loud House sibling is your favorite. If you would like to vote in that poll, you can find it here: Who Is your favorite Loud House sibling?

Username origin
Veenster is just a word that one of my brothers called me a long time ago it has just kind of stuck with me. The meaning of the word is a complete mystery to everyone. The number 7 though is very special to me. I was born on 7/7/97 and for whatever reason this number seems to cling on to me in some life events.

Favorite Loud Characters
Everything I say from here on is just my opinion. It's perfectly fine if you like some characters or episodes differently than me.

The following list is my personal order of favorite Loud House siblings. This list is subject to change. I understand that you are likely to disagree with me and I respect your opinion but nonetheless here it is.
 * 1) Luan - My favorite character from The Loud House. While most of her jokes aren't that good she has some good highlights. Luan has been portrayed as nice as seen in Making The case when she was the only sibling that was willing to help Lincoln redeem himself after hurting each of his sisters. In Dance, Dance Resolution she was one of four sisters that were thoughtful enough to get Lincoln a date for the Sadie Hawkins dance. I also really appreciate how she goes to events for kids like birthday parties. April Fools Rules definitely brought out the worst of her, she just went too far with those pranks. Her prank in Snow Bored was much funnier knowing that Lincoln wouldn't get hurt. Luckily Funny Business was able to redeem her character and show that she isn't who fans thought she might be from just one episode. After all this I wouldn't put her on the side that is more considerate towards Lincoln like Leni, Lucy, and Lily, but I certainly wouldn't say that she is a mean sister.
 * 2) Lincoln - The man with the plan for any scenario. A lot of patience is required to live in a house of ten sisters. Lincoln is one of my favorite characters mainly because we share a lot of the same interests; video games, manga, science fiction movies, and of course pizza.
 * 3) Leni - She may not be too bright but what she lacks in knowledge she makes up for with a big heart. Sure she had moments in episodes like It's a Loud 4X House and Slueth or Consequences where she is mean like the rest of the sisters. I like to think of this more as her small brain overriding her big heart. Leni is definitely one of the most likable "dumb" characters on television.Dance Trance.jpg
 * 4) Lola - I understand why most people dislike her, originally I shared the same opinion that she is a mean sister and I simply didn't like her because of that. But now I feel that is an element that the show needs. Her bratty and evil personality often comes off as very funny to me. As Jaylop91 has pointed out, she can really be like an anti-hero at times. I can't imagine how The Loud House would operate without this bratty 6 year old. Thank you Chris for adding this little princess in your massive cast of characters!
 * 5) Lucy - I love dark characters and there is nobody as dark as Lucy. She is an excellent poetry writer. I like how despite how different she is from Lincoln she is very open to talking with him and is the only sister that looks up to him like a big brother.
 * 6) Lori - I feel like Lori is often thought of as being one of the worst siblings due to her being quite mean towards Lincoln. Being the oldest sibling must be very stressful though because she is always left in charge of keeping the house under control when the parents are out, and she is also the only one that can drive. Also in episodes like The Waiting game, Lori has been shown to really care for Lincoln.
 * 7) Lana - I have no problems with Lana but there isn't really anything that stands out about her for me to have her higher on this list. Toads and Tiaras is one of my top 10 episodes because I liked seeing Lana try to take Lola's place but proved that she is who she is and shouldn't try to fix that. This episode had a strong message to be who you are. I want to see another episode focusing on her to expand this section.
 * 8) Lisa - Originally I disliked her character because of how she seemed way too much your stereotypical genius. She has the glasses and a unique accent that you would only think could go with a nerd like her. Looking past this though I find her experiments very funny and she has wicked evil laugh shown in The Green House. As of now I am neutral with Lisa, my dislikes are balanced out with what I like about her.
 * 9) Lily - Before you ask, no, I am not a baby hater. I find that Lily's character is very boring. All she says is "poo-poo" or some other really short phrase and walks around naked. Lily is cute, but it seems her whole character is so one-dimensional; I know a typical baby should be one-dimensional but this is a TV show and she isn't bringing much to the table.
 * 10) Luna - She is most commonly being thought of as one of the nicest sisters. But is she really as nice and kind-hearted as we think she is? In It's a Loud 4X House she brutally kicks Lincoln out of her room. In Attention Deficit she inadvertently told the others their secret. She apologized for doing so but never made it up to Lincoln in any shape or form. She also laughed at Lincoln in Sleuth or Consequences but that's not too big a deal since all but Lucy did. For someone that is 15 and isn't considered to be a chucklehead, I expect more from the "nicer" sister. Luna had a good role in For Bros About to Rock and for the most part House Music.  I'm not saying that she is a mean sister, just that she may not be what we tend to think of her as. My other issue with her is I honestly can't stand her British accent. I liked Tabby's accent since that was just how her voice was. In Luna's case she is trying to pull this British accent and I just find it cringy.
 * 11) Lynn - I used to really like Lynn and thought that her picking on Lincoln was really just her not knowing her own strength. But looking back on an episode like The Sweet Spot where she punched Lincoln for every car that she saw, or the entire Space Invader episode, I just find her as a bully towards Lincoln.

My thoughts on Clyde
Before I get started on how I dislike him I want to make it clear that it has absolutely nothing to do with his parents. I find Clyde as a useless character that is being flanderized by his crush on Lori. He always seems to agree with whatever Lincoln says without any opinion what-so-ever. Not only this, but he can also be shown as selfish in episodes like The Green House when he says he wouldn't hang out with him in public. Come on Clyde, Lincoln is your best and as far as we know only friend and you wouldn't hangout with him just because others don't like him. His crush on Lori is starting to turn his whole character into a running gag since all he does is have nosebleeds and makes robot noises for whatever reason when her name is simply brought up. The fact that she is 6 years older than him doesn't really bother me, it's the fact that he pursues Lori even though she already has a boyfriend that gets me. In most episodes his role could have been taken by one of Lincoln's sisters or even Ronnie Anne. I'm not a big Ronnie fan, but she I find her way more interesting than Clyde and I know a lot of other fans like her, so giving her more screen-time wouldn't be such a bad idea.

Favorite episodes

 * 1) 11 Louds a Leapin' - This is my favorite Christmas special for any show I have ever seen. It was absolutely phenomenal as it was both heartwarming and funny. Lana's traps were hilarious, maybe her and Luan could get a pranking episode in the future. Lola trying to get on Santa's nice list and Lisa trying to prove he doesn't exist was good use for these two characters. We didn't see much of Lynn and Lucy here, just at the beginning when they were searching for the hidden presents. Luan's puns were really bad except for the last one, but with so much other stuff going on a few flaws here and there in this 22 minute episode is fine.  Leni showed off her fashion designer skills multiple times and looked beautiful in all of them, the part where she used Mr. Grouse's curtains for a vest was so funny. Clyde was actually a good friend in this episode, I still wish that he would stop with this Lori thing because his fantasy of Mr. Grouse taking Bobby is so mean. Bobby is a nice guy and hasn't done anything wrong to Clyde, if Clyde is such a nice character he should be able to accept the fact that Bobby is dating Lori. Now to the heart-warming side of this story, Mr. Grouse was shown as being such a mean character to the Loud's but we learn that this is because he to has a big family and it must be like torture to him seeing them all together when he can't buy a ticket to see his family. This really made me feel bad for him, I can't imagine being all alone on Christmas. The song the Loud's sing for Mr. Grouse was fantastic, nice job on that song Luna! Now for my favorite part of the special, we finally got to see Lynn Loud Sr. and Rita Loud's faces! I didn't think we would ever see the time come, but I was proven wrong and I am glad that I was wrong. I hope that hiding their faces is just going to be for season 1 and they will continue to show their faces for the rest of the series. Lynn Sr. is one of my favorite characters and it was a bummer not being able to see his whole face in a scene. Congratulations Loud House crew on making such a masterpiece!
 * 2) Funny Business - Due to the sour note that April Fools Rules gave everyone about Luan's character an episode like this was a must. This episode did an amazing job of developing both Luan and the bond between her and Lincoln. Luan had every right to be mad at Lincoln for taking her punchlines. Lincoln noticed this at the end of the episode and apologized for it. The last scene gives me hope that their relationship is not as bad as we thought it was due to April Fools Rules. Seeing Lincoln continuing to be her assistant shows that they do share something special and this leaves the door open for another episode like this in the future.
 * 3) A Tattler's Tale - I like Lola for how funny she can be when angry, but this episode was able to make her so much more likable to the general Loud House fan. Most people hate Lola for how evil she can be, and here we got to see that she has a nicer side to her. She just wants to be included with her siblings.
 * 4) Driving Miss Hazy - This was technically the first episode I watched, I caught it on TV when it was about 5 minutes in. This episode is really what hooked me onto the show. Back on topic, I love this episode for how funny Leni was. Leni really tested Lincoln's patience in this episode but he pulled through her dim witted moments and was able to show that there is some sort of thought process to Leni. My one issue with this episode was how absolutely selfish Lori was, good thing she at least tried to help Leni pass for her next test.
 * 5) Snow Bored - Finally an episode with all of the siblings being featured and we don't get huge arguments or fights. Lisa throwing snowballs was the closest thing to fighting but she was just having fun and she never has any fun. This episode did a great job showing that Lisa to has a "wild" side. Not to mention it's about time we got a Lisa episode, I don't really consider Butterfly Effect a Lisa episode due to the fact it was almost all a dream.
 * 6) The Old and the Restless - This episode was fantastic. Seeing Lincoln bond with Pop-Pop was a very nice thing to watch. There were a lot of funny moments and they didn't use any running gags to have such good jokes. Sometimes I find running gags funny, but most of the time they lose their edge after the first few uses in my opinion. I usually like to have sisters in the episode (it doesn't need to include all of them) but it was good not having them for a change. This episode pulled off just featuring Lincoln and Pop-Pop amazingly and made a great introduction for fans bringing us into Season 2.
 * 7) Along Came a Sister - After Driving Miss Hazy, I didn't think there would be another episode based off Leni that could compete. To me Driving Miss Hazy has the edge, but I could see why some would prefer this instead. There were many memorable moments from this episode. Leni mixing lactose intolerant for lack-toes-intolerant is both funny, and it shows how much she cares about her family. I actually liked Clyde in this episode, I can't help but laugh when he gets run over by Leni and Lynn Sr. because of their fear of spiders. Seeing the Exterminator have a rough time catching the spider was hilarious. From him peeping underneath the bathroom door to Lisa's ghost pepper mouthwash, it was just a really funny scenario. The best part of this episode though, was Leni overcoming her fear of spiders just so she could help Lincoln not look bad to the rest of his class. She will do anything for family, and that is one of the reasons for why I like her so much.
 * 8) Toads and Tiaras - I find this on a lot of top tens and for good reason. The message to be who you are is my favorite part about it. Throughout the episode we see Lincoln trying to mold Lana to be like Lola for a beauty pageant so they can win tickets to Dairyland. Lana's comment after putting on a dress was hilarious and one of my favorite moments on the show so far. During the contest Lana was constantly messing up and when confronted by Lincoln says, "maybe there's something wrong with me", this line hits me hard every time I hear it. There is nothing wrong with who Lana is, and Lincoln telling her this was the most heart-warming moment of the show to me. Lincoln telling Lana to just go out there and be herself for the contest was a huge "big brother" moment  he had with her. The only issue I have with the episode is the fact that she won the beauty pageant. I love the message to be yourself in this episode, but you are not going to win a beauty pageant with fart noises.
 * 9) House Music - WARNING: this will get pretty depressing. I'm not too big on this episode myself. Sure it's good and it was nice to have an episode more focused on a sister rather than Lincoln for a change. But I really like House Music because it just holds a special place in my heart. I remember when it first aired, my 2 nieces and 1 nephew were over while their mother was in the hospital since she had to give birth to her child that had already past. She was already 8 months pregnant so it was even more devastating. She still hasn't recovered to this day and quite honestly none of us have completely yet. It was a very sad day, the kids didn't quite understand what was going on since they were 6,4, and 2 years old. I was watching TV with them when House Music aired and that is what really sparked my interest into contributing here. I had just started contributing not long before it aired but didn't get serious about it until this episode. While House Music wasn't the greatest episode, I will never forget that day.

Least favorite episodes

 * 1) The Green House - This may come as a bit surprising for number one, but I just can't stand this episode. For starters the students should never be assigned a project based on being green. This is something that some families just don't think has an affect on the planet (not saying that I do believe this way, it's just a controversial topic that should be kept away from). I just found it hard to like anyone from this episode, Clyde was only thinking about himself, Lincoln was a hypocrite, most his sisters were totally out of character. Luna and Lisa not being green made sense since they both use a lot of electricity in other episodes. It's sisters like Lori using multiple mobiles to see Bobby "from different angles" and not knowing what the Mona Lisa is after she even caught Lincoln's reference to it in Picture Perfect, and Luan making so many pies just to hit herself in the face repeatedly, and the list just goes on from there.
 * 2) April Fools Rules - I honestly can't even watch this episode again, Luan took her pranks way too far in this episode. Seriously though, she was so bad that two fan fiction writers decided to make some sort of continuation (Pranking Pariah and April Two Rules) to this episode to make her learn her lesson that pranks can be fun, but causing others pain is no laughing matter. She is 14 and should know the difference between right and wrong. I find pranks like her water bucket one from Project Loud House or her snow prank from Snow Bored a lot funnier because you know the characters didn't get hurt by it. I don't even see Luan as someone who likes to pull pranks anyways, her more common focus is jokes so I have no idea what they were thinking with this episode. At least with my experience, April Fools is more of a pun-filled holiday anyways. I am willing to look past this one episode making Luan look bad, but many others can't seem to do so. Funny Business was good enough of a redemption episode for me, but if she is going to restore others faith in her, we need some kind of continuation of this episode where she can learn that causing others pain is no laughing matter.
 * 3) One of The Boys - There was so much hype for this episode only to be crushed by how stereotypical the Loud boys were. Lincoln might have been the biggest disappointment in this episode, he was disgusting all because it seemed like the writers wanted to show how gross boys as a whole are. Lincoln has never been seen picking his nose, or eating out of the peanut butter jar. The boys weren't any better though, they were all shown as just grosser and non-considerate versions of his sisters. The only thing about this episode that was good, was that Lynn was kept true to her character.
 * 4) Making the Case - This episode is widely considered as the worst episode of the series, I think it's bad but I do dislike some episodes slightly more than this. I put this one here because I feel that the sisters were in the right for hating Lincoln for what he did. Lucy saying "I don't have a brother" was certainly taking it too far though. Lincoln is single-handedly the reason for this episode being so low to me. It never occurred to him that uploading embarrassing moments of his sisters to the internet was wrong. Like are you KIDDING ME! Of course your classmates are going to make fun of Lucy for kissing the bust, Luna's pants ripping, Lisa and Leni walking into the wall, and Lori farting. This was just not the Lincoln I know, he is usually looking out for his sisters, not trying to humiliate them for his own selfish needs. His sisters never should have given him the trophy to put in his case, he just didn't deserve anything after that.
 * 5) A Tale of Two Tables and The Sweet Spot - I put these two together because to me they both suffer from just one flaw, they are simply boring. I don't care about Lincoln trying to move to another table or plotting to get a certain spot in Vanzilla.
 * 6) Two Boys and a Baby - This one may come as a bit of shocker, but I really just don't care for this episode. My biggest issue with it is that Lincoln seems to know next to nothing on how to care for Lily after we saw do just fine with her in episodes like Left in the Dark and in Changing the Baby. Continuity errors just really bother me in shows. My other issue with is that Clyde didn't need to be in this episode. He just kind of followed Lincoln around and gave him advice he should already know. Clyde's role easily could have been replaced by one of Lincoln's sisters like Lori to stay home with Lincoln and help take care of Lily.

Major contributions
Since joining the wiki I have made a variety of changes that include the following:
 * Removed the lock on old blog posts since fan fiction writers didn't like how their stories would become uncommentable after 30 days.
 * Helped in the process of renaming images that had titles with the time a screenshot was taken.
 * Came up with the idea of keeping our episode galleries to a maximum of 75 images.
 * Cleared up when focus categories should be used.
