i found this in an article about smallville's lex:
"Plainly put, a "woobie" is an individual who's had an emotionally shattering experience and needs mental support. It helps if this someone is hot and somewhat morally ambiguous, because perhaps by cuddling this person close, the comfort might turn into kissing. At least, that's my interpretation."
except, not quite. it's a kind of - tough but NOT tough, awwwwww thing. even if the character isn't really fluffy (because joe is not fluffy. except how he kind of is? and that makes me go eee, woobie! does that make any sense? also, clearly any kissing joe does ought to be with billy. i'm pretty clear on that part.)
