Hey, y'all!

Get your Xander!hate on! eleusis_walks is doing his 30 Days of BtVS, and even though there are many, many topics I strongly disagree with him on, he is always thoughtful and awesome and interesting. And the things I do agree with him on? I agree violently.

Like our mutual hate for the ultimate Nice Guy Xander Harris. He basically lists every single hateful thing that Xander ever says/does and I am glorying in my hate. He also has a love-post devoted to Anya, which I haven't gotten to read yet, but I know is wonderful because anything involving Anya is wonderful. And eleusis_walks loves Dawn and Cordy and Jenny and basically a ton of awesome ladies, so I forgive him for not loving my boy and my girl enough. ;D

So join the hate fest! Or if you like Xander...well, I would like to hear why. Because it is beyond my understanding.

Okay, I was just kind of 'yikes', haha.

I mean, to clarify - I don't think your post goes into fan-judging territory at all (which is what I was meaning with the 'unsafe' thing). But I'm pretty aware of what fandom's like, and I was expecting that sooner or later somebody somewhere was gonna start directing derogatory comments not just at Xander but also at his fans. It was a pre-emptive knee-jerk panic. Not personal.
