User blog:AustinDR/Lincoln Torture Episodes

OK, so I am planning on making a list of the worst cases in which Lincoln gets tortured, in response to asking most of you what you thought the worst offenders were. Now, it'll take some time for me to compile my list, but there are some rules to what qualifies and what does not.

Rules

 * 1) No Episodes in which Lincoln Deserves the Punishment: Basically, what makes episodes such as "Brawl" and "Sounds of Silence" bad is that Lincoln gets punished for something that wasn't his fault. Case in point, in "Sounds of Silence," Lincoln is made to do demeaning stuff for his sisters (such as Lori using him as a footstool) because they claim that Lola had done several bad things to them. And his crime? He was tuning them out just because he wanted some peace and quiet so that he could read his comic books. I'll say this: episodes like "Girl Guru" or "Loudest Yard," won't make it onto the list primarily because Lincoln was in the wrong in some way. In "Loudest Yard," he's a lazy bum who doesn't think twice about having Lynn play in his place (she didn't mind it, but that's beside the point). In "Girl Guru," he gives horrible advice to the boys at school which naturally causes them to want retribution on him. As such, those episodes won't be featured on the list, but I don't mind if you view them as Lincoln TP.
 * 2) No episode in which Lynn hits/ punches/ or Dutch Ovens Lincoln: This would just take up a majority of the list for one. That, and they're mostly minor and last for only a few minutes, and they're generally played for comedic purposes. So essentially, it would be petty to just say everything.
 * 3) Lincoln is Primarily Tortured Not Anyone Else: Take "Cover Girls." Lincoln isn't the only one subjected to this as his sisters also suffer for it. So, "Cover Girls" will not be on the list as it's not entirely centered around Lincoln. Additionally, "Two Boys and a Baby" will not be on the list as well given the torment is mutual on Lincoln's and Clyde's parts.
 * 4) Lincoln is a Jerk: Kind of goes back to the first rule, but episodes in which Lincoln acts like a prick will not be on the list. "Out on a Limo," and episode I despise, will not be added because I cannot feel sympathy for Linc as he acts like a spoiled brat towards his sisters and the limo driver. "Sweet Spot," and "It's a Loud, Loud, Loud, Loud, House" will not be on there either as Lincoln takes part in the fighting with his sisters over trifles such as being the one to get the sweet spot or pocket change.
