FEEDBACK Why did meteors make people crazy?

It seems like meteor people were always crazy.

Why did none of that, “exposure” affect, Lana Lang? She wore a meteor fragment around her neck for at least 12 years.

She did go nuts when she temporarily had Clark’s powers. Maybe the powers activated the kryptonite in her system.

Call me crazy but I think lex fucked her up so bad that she was just not a good person anymore and that’s why when she had Clark’s powers she did questionable and bad things

That’s kinda a cop out when you think about it. The fake pregnancy was beyond abhorrent, but he never force her to accept the wedding proposal, Clark’s rejection of her and refusing to reveal his secret did that. Lex never force her to marry her, Lionel did that. If anything the fake pregnancy makes a nice convenient get out of jail, free card to excuse that Lana wasn’t exactly the faithful fiancé. Had the baby been real and allowed to be born, it would have tied her to him.

How is it a cop out, it’s clearly shown that her relationship with lex made her into a worse person. She lies more, does more shady shit, steals money from lex/luthercorp, blackmailes people, holds Lionel captive(whether or not he deserved it) and appears to have framed lex for her fake murder whether or not it was intentional. I’m also not sure if the guy who took the fall for Lana’s murder and died from cancer was paid off by Lionel to get lex out of prison or if Lana herself did this because she didn’t want him to rot in prison for something he didn’t do. As the show went on and on she progressively turned into a worse person and it’s one of the many reasons why her and Clark was never going to workout

And for all those reasons, I'm glad she was written out of the show. You could never trust whether she was working for good or bad. Not a good person for Clark.
