Something that could almost pass for a rant...

Well, it's more of an observation, really.

There's this particular response to fanfic criticism, which seems to be getting quite popular: "You're not capable of understanding this story. You're just saying the characterization/style/whatever is off because you hate [insert pairing of choice]."

I'm tired of hearing this argument (using the word in the loosest sense here.) All the while you could just as well say, "You're more willing to ignore above points because you're a [insert pairing of choice]-shipper."

Just saying.

LOL!

Step 1, Underpants, Step 3, True Love!

Bwah! Gonna have to ask you if I can use this exact quote at OBAFU. Ain't it the truth?

Sure!

And man, I've watched way, way too much South Park in my life.
