YMMV / Penny And Aggie Mister Smiles

• Broken Base: Was Stan a victim of Cyndi's manipulation, or does he bear full responsibility for ruining his relationship with Brandi? More broadly, is he a genuinely repentant, former user who at least tries to act more selflessly, even if he doesn't always succeed, or is he a "once a Jerkass, always a Jerkass" sort whose attempts at reform are merely cosmetic? Were Penny and Aggie right to exclude him from their social group after the election incident, or were they being hypocritical in denying him the forgiveness and chances they gave others who'd done wrong? These debates persisted for some time not only amongst the fandom, and between Campbell and two of his editors, but in-universe.
