Unpopular Opinions You Didn't Ask For
May. 19th, 2009 10:34 pmI'm pretty notorious for having the least popular opinions you can have in fandom. I'm not sure why. And it's not as though I'm trying, it just is, you know? It would be far easier for me if this weren't the case. I am this way because Jacob made me this way, by the way.
PROOF
→ I can't bring myself to write and [generally] don't desire to read 80-90% of canon pairings. It's a disease. Which may or may not be contagious. *coughs on you*
I can't help it that I chronically multi-ship. My motto? Make me believe. That is all I ask. [I'm not sure if that part is terribly unpopular.]
→ [I often still enjoy the canon representations of the pairings that I don't read/write in fic.]
→ We've discussed my relationship with Juliet from Lost, yes? Everyone loves her. Me, not so much. [I also had major issues with Charlie, Ben, and Locke.]
→ The same goes for Eric from True Blood. And the Sookie Stackhouse book series. And I'm on book four. I'm pretty sure he's the most popular character next to Sookie herself.
→ Everyone seems to be really liking Glee. Whereas I watched the first half-hour the other day and quit halfway through, call it lack of sleep mixed with lack of interest. Maybe the 2nd half makes up for it?
→ If my phone hadn't died I'd still be voting for Kris Allen. Have I mentioned I don't actually watch the show?
→ I prefer Ronon/Sheppard to McShep. [But I still like McShep!]
→ Misha Collins kind of gives me the heebs. Fine, I said it! [Feel free to use icons of him when you respond to this post, Dayl.]
→ I am sure there's more I can't think of at the moment. How does one pick examples from their perpetual state of being? It all just runs together. I'm damn contrary, okay?

Date: 2009-05-20 04:52 am (UTC)I don't love or hate Juliet. She's purely neutral in my book. She's pretty but I always felt she had ulterior motives. Idk.
My favorite character from True Blood is LaFayette. Bitch, you gonna eat my food the way I fucking MAKE IT.
Misha is an odd duck. But I love him for it.
Glee's last 5 minutes are epic! It's such a happy show like Pushing Daisies. It makes me smile. I hope it does well this fall!
I was so conflicted on what icon to use! A Glee icon, SGA, Lost, Castiel or my TB LaFayette icon. :P

Date: 2009-05-20 12:32 pm (UTC)I think those were my feelings for a while but I think I grew more and more frustrated with the level of focus the show (and to some extent the fandom) puts on her). That kind of turned my indifference to rage.
