Let me say this...
Dear Unnamed Author:
I think Route 666 is without question THE worst SPN ep to date. What this means is that I eagerly read every story I see that retcons, codas, or otherwise reworks that ep, because, f'realz, yo, it can only be better than the original.
However, if you use the words "that bitch Cassie" in the "warning for" section of the header of your Sam/Dean fic you are guaranteeing that I will never read it (and none of your future stories either). Not that it matters whether I, girlguidejones, reads your story. I am under no illusions as to my personal importance to you or anyone else in fandom. On the other hand, I am willing to bet I'm not alone in how I feel, nor how it affects my future reading choices.
Grow the hell up.
/end commentary on how to alienate potential readers who haven't even read your story
(PS- Don't dogpile, m'kay?)
