You know what bugs me? The fact that there seem to be an inordinate number of stupid H/G fans. I hate having to be ashamed of my own 'shipmates, but the fact is, I all-too-often am. (Please note that I am not saying *all,* just *some.*) It just irritates me no end that the actions of a few can give an entire ship a bad name. I remember this happening on SoapZone too-- different ship, of course-- but it bugged me then, too.

So, to anyone who might be listening: I am a twentysomething, intelligent, well-educated HP fan who happens to ship H/G. I recognize that many, many fans have other ship preferences, and I would never dream of telling them that they're "wrong" or "stupid" for liking those ships-- we all see things differently. And I'm sorry that we all have to deal with people who don't understand the meaning of the word "opinion."

There. I feel better now.

Oh honey, I got one word for you: JediLiz.

I HATE the vast majority of Mara/Luke shippers. But I am not ashamed. Because for being 'shippers. these girls are seriously missing the boat. It's Mara Sueville, I swear.

Of course, I'm a bitch, so there ya go.

Oh. Wow. Good point.

You know, once upon a time, I thought Luke/Mara was an intelligent ship. But over time, I've come to realize that *no* ship is really intelligent, because there are stupid people everywhere. There are just more of them in some ships and fandoms than others.
