Damon/Elena
Damon/Life
Y'know what, I'm not even going to pretend to be shocked or surprised. Damon is just predictable at this point. Damon is the most boring character on TVD now, because you can see his actions coming a mile off. He makes some snarky comments, tries to be the "truth guy", then the moment anyone makes the slightest suggestion in the nicest possible way that maybe he should hold back a little, he snaps and does something stupid like kill his only friend. It's so repulsive and frustrating and above all else
dull.
Is this what passes for character development now? Damon has come so far in this past year, he's progressed from killing Elena's brother right in front of her to killing Elena's father figure right in front of her
temporarily.
It's annoying, because DE and even moreso Damon himself have always had potential. Ian Somerhalder is a tremendous actor and Damon has some great lines (despite my hatred for him, he's still probably the funniest character on TVD, it's just annoying that every time I laugh I feel irritated by the fact), and he has great chemistry with Nina Dobrev. But all that potential is wasted by the terrible writing, "shocking twists" and piss-poor development the writers keeps throwing at Damon and DE. This episode was a good example of that - the kitchen scene was actually really nice. It was fun and cute and witty, and it shows Damon's potential. Scenes like that make me think that maybe I could like Damon one day, but by the end of the episode I'm back to hating him.
He had potential, but I think it's too late to save him now. At this point, he's no longer interesting. He's not complex or three-dimensional or even entertaining. He's just a dick.
Stefan/Rebekah 
Rebekah/Life - I already knew I didn't like her, due to her being a pointless, whiny, irritating brat, but the moment she inadvertently stopped Stefan from undaggering Elijah, I knew I would hate her forever.
On that note,
Elijah/Dagger
Jeremy/Bonnie - Jeremy just has better chemistry with Anna, Tyler, Vicki... pretty much every other character on the show.
Matt/Caroline - I just can't buy his supposed jealousy over Tyler/Caroline. He spent most of his time criticising Caroline so I don't understand why he apparently loves her, so his jealousy just comes off more like macho posturing.
Bonnie and Matt/The show - I don't even dislike Bonnie particularly, but she is nothing but a plot device and I don't see that changing. And Matt is just the most pointless character on the show, and I cannot think of anything they could do with him, plot or arc wise. TVD needs to trim these loose ends if it wants to get anything done.
Hangovers/Life
Could I just crawl into a hole and die now? I think my stomach and liver are eating each other.
