Tuesday 21 September 2004, by Claudia : In regard to the Jossverse shows, I would agree with this article, if the author wasn’t so intent upon attacking fans of the B/S and C/A ships: "When Joss Whedon abandons his shows to that talentless trollop Marti Noxon, or Noxious as we Giggles call her, causing Buffy and Angel to sink into a morass of bad melodrama, it is the ’Shippers that single-handedly rave about how great these shows are - Best! Season! Ever! - because it’s like, wow, Buffy*Spike 4EVA!!! Cordy*Angel 4EVA!!! Fred*Gunn 4EVA!!! Tara*Willow 4EVA!!! No, ’Shippers don’t care that the plot is non-existant, the pace plods, and everything sucks. They only care that the main characters are sucking each other. It doesn’t matter that Spike tried to rape Buffy, and in a shocking show of lack of continuity and lazy writing, Buffy has Spike babysitting her sister the next day after the attempted rape, because ’Shippers know that Spike and Buffy belong together. Just like how Angel and Buffy belong together. And like how Angel and Cordy belong together. Never mind that Mutant Enemy is recycling the vampire-whine/dumb bimbo romance three times over. It’s love, baby, forever. Drowning in rancid kerosene is a better fate than hanging out on a fan board nowadays." Look at these paragraphs. Hardly any of Mrsgiggles’ spite is directed at the B/A ship. Why is that? These comments are an anwser to this article : Damn The ’Shippers’ ! - How Unthinking Groupies Ruin The Best TV Shows Around
