Then I had a rage blackout and had to go drink some water for a while. (A rare occurrence, because I really could care less about what other people think usually, but said idea is so insulting to two characters I care deeply about that I will never not be baffled by it.) /own rant YEEEEESSSSS. I'm normally pretty live-and-let live re: fandom preferences (at least in "public;" in my own journal, it's a different story), but I totally, totally agree.
Also, I can't understand why the whole "BUFFY LUVS ANGEL 4EVA!!1!" thing is so prevalent everywhere outside of Spike-fandom. Every time you read an article or essay or blog-entry...it's all about how "ANGEL IS HER ONE TRUE LOVE OMG" and I'm all, ""Seriously? Am I missing the part where our hero growing up is a bad thing?
Of course, these are probably the same people who think that Spike's character was completely ruined after the chip and that he was soooo much better when he was evil and being soft is such a baaaaad thing, etc., etc., etc. excuse me while I vomit.
