*rolls eyes*

OMG Y'ALL.

Did you know that we as Spuffy/Spike fans have ~superpowers???? That we can render things meaningless for other people? Also did you know that anyone who doesn't think the earlier seasons of BtVS are "better" is automatically "lacking in perspective" about the show?

Because I wasn't aware of this, but I'm so glad that people have informed and enlightened me! I can now fix my perspective to get it in line with....

Oh. Wait. Who decides these things again? They're opinion-based? You mean that no one is actually wrong if they enjoy a different episode of a TV show than I do? Seriously?

CHAOS WILL NOW ENSUE. HOW WILL THE UNIVERSE BEAR UP UNDER SUCH ANARCHY?

Damnit, I only noticed Simon's post after making another comment. Oops. *waits for the banhammer*

And I would have posted that link myself if it wasn't for the title, because I know 90% of Whedonesquers would stop reading the moment they saw that. Even though I don't think the essay is even that critical of Joss.

I don't think you'll be banned. ;D

Yeah, it's not criticizing Joss. It's criticizing fandom, and it's definitely aimed at quite a few of the people who hang out at whedonesque.

I think I need that icon. It's pretty much the story of my life.

ARE YOU SERIOUS?

Banned for good? I've seen people say much more out-of-line things and get away with it!

Okay, now I'm just mad.

Just for a day, I think. At least that's what Simon said in the thread and I can't log in so I guess I'm one of the banned.

Oh, okay. One day. That's not nearly as bad as I thought it might be. I was gonna get all fired up.
