Yeah, Dean has that "big brother" mentality, where he calls his younger siblings (Cas included) out on more stuff, because he feels he's the authority and it's part of his job - and that DOES lead to a certain bit of arrogance in believing that he knows what's best, when he doesn't. My older siblings do the same thing. The trick is realizing that it doesn't ACTUALLY mean they know best...and some of fandom doesn't really get that. :P
But yeah, as much as it's fun to hang out in fandom, you don't want it to start affecting in a negative way how you see the show....it's why I'm extremely careful about who is on my flist and whose reviews I read, and whose I don't read.
Oh man, if I met Sam and Dean in real life...I would not be able to hang out with them. Maybe for a bit, but after a while, I'd just be like "ok, you are a swirling vortex of despair, and I think I need to leave now." :P
