EBAY PEOPLE!
Stop outbidding me on full runs of Cardcaptor Sakura!
It makes Sakura all upset and disappointed! Do you know what happens when Sakura is upset and disappointed? It makes her have a Kurogane moment, and then everything descends into gothic shoujo crack! Too much of that is bad for the brain!
(Seriously, it's the third or so set I've been outbid on. I WILL ONLY GO SO HIGH!)
ALSO!!!
(non-fist-shakey)
While I was at work,prozacparkasked me my opinion about #148 of today's Fandom Secrets. Since she is now logged off and at least one other person here might be interested in it (redbrunja, there aren't any Avatar spoilers in the post) I shall just post it. The secret was along the lines of "I slash m/m because I think the female characters deserve a lot better than what canon gave them." I've seen that a few times before, and just ignoring any other opinions I have on fanon shipping, while I often agree that yes, the girls in fiction could do better and it seems they're just told "Here is the main guy! You must accept him even though he doesn't appreciate you or treat you well!" my reaction to that response to it is always "But, if you object on her behalf, why are you having her twiddle her thumbs while you send him off to have fun?"
(No, really, if you think canon gave her the short end of the stick and you want her to get better and you're going to do a fanon ship, why doesn't she get to go have fun while the guy who doesn't treat her good enough sits there and sulks? Why does he get to have all the fun?)
ETA: I probably don't have to say this, but just in case: no bashing the secret maker. Whoever s/he may be.

But, if you're going to go for an alternative because you think one person got shafted, then why aren't you giving that one the alternative?
Really, it's not something that will influence my opinion of someone(I don't get letting a person's shipping tendencies forge your opinion of them) but it baffles me.
