is steam coming out of my ears?
because i'm pretty. damn. mad.
Disclaimer: I have nothing against FR/PQ shippers in general. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, and although I don't understand them, I respect them. (Preach it, Quinn.)
Okay, so ever since that spoiler came out about how Puckleberry is happening again (squee), FR and PQ shippers have been getting unnecessarily pissed off about it. And they're saying some ri-fucking-diculous things.
They're saying that the whole point of Mash-Up was to show that Puck and Rachel don't go together, like the Thong Song and I Could've Danced All Night. Who in their right minds (oh yeah, they're not in their right minds) would think that those songs and possible mash-up were a parallel to Puck and Rachel?!!? It was obviously a parallel to Ken and Emma, if anyone. I, personally, thought that the, uh, moral, we'll call it, of that episode was to show that unlikely things do go together, like chocolate and bacon (incidentally, that is my new Puckleberry nickname), or football and glee. So yeah, that idea makes about as much sense as Kurt dating Sue. That was a lame example, I know. Please let it slide.
Some of them (again, this is only certain shippers who piss me off; I won't name names, mostly because I don't remember them) think it's a bad thing (?!?!?!? WTF KIND OF CRACK ARE YOU ON, SERIOUSLY?!?) that Ryan Murphy is putting Puck and Rachel back together because of the fact that the fans like them. Oh god, we wouldn't want the writers writing stuff that the fans want, now would we?! Oh wait, YES WE WOULD. They're saying that RM shouldn't conform to what the Puckleberry fans want, just because they are the "louder shippers." Louder ≠ Majority, to quote one shipper whose name I characteristically don't remember. This is very true. Like let's say that there are 4 people who like Glee. 1 person is a Puckleberry shipper, and that person is screaming for Puckleberrry like a motherfucking banshee. Then 3 people are quietly rooting for Finchel (gag). Obviously, the Finchel shippers are the majority. However, in this particular case, I'm like 96% sure that the Puckleberry shippers are louder, prouder, and are the majority! You know how there are those polls, like "Who do you want to be together on Glee?" Well assuming that my memory doesn't deceive me (which it probably will so I'm going to do some half-ass research after this sentence, or maybe the next one), then Puckleberry has usually always had the majority of the votes. Okay, so all I could find was this, but I know that there were more, and of all the ones I've seen, PR has had the lead, including a poll where it was all the Glee couples, not just FR and PR (there was PQ, Artina (or Tartie), Wemma, and Finn/Quinn), and Puckleberry still won. Now, I know that these polls obviously aren't every person that watches Glee, but I know that dedicated fans do these polls (I know I do!) and if a majority of the dedicated fans like PR, then I think it's fair to assume that a majority of all the fans like them. OH, and I almost forgot! I just compared the number of members at the puckrachel community to the number of members at the finnrachel community. Drumroll, please. The PR comm had 1838 members, whereas the FR comm had a measly 645. I laugh in the faces of your cliched, gag-inducing little ship. I think it's even more amazing that PR has such a big fanbase when they've only been canon since episode 8, while Finchel over here has been the promoted OTP of sorts since day one.
One person made a nice little point of saying that when we squee over all these sexy little looks they give each other, that we're basically claiming that Puck and Rachel are, to quote "~sekretly in love." lmfao, you are dumb. Who has said that? I have not heard ONE person that has said that. Not one.
Another thing I'd like to point out is how genuinely good Puck and Rachel are for each other. Look back, Puck is a total douchnozzle. Like, you want to hate him for being such a dickhead, but you can't because he's hot. He slushies people, nails their lawn furniture to their roof, and pushes handicapped people over while their in portapotties. But when he was with Rachel...he was nice. He sang a solo to win her heart, he got slushied, he stopped slushie-ing people and he apalogized for slushie-ing people. He put up with Rachel, which is like, quite a feat. He quit football for her, making him all the more romantic and adorable. I could name more but I've already been typing for like 20 minutes, and maybe I'm a slow typer (I'm not), but that's just really pathetic. Rachel was a complete sweetheart when she was with Noah. The cleaning him off thing...I'm pretty sure the whole Puckleberry fanbase melted. They were both such better people around each other, you can't not love them! (Well, apparently you can, but I just don't understand it.) And Finn, despite popular belief, is an ASSHOLE. He has led Rachel on, kissed her twice while being in (what I assume is) a committed relationship with someone else. He, unlike his mohawked "best friend," quit Glee for football. He also stood Rachel up for the photo, and...ugh. I know there's more. I know there is, but I really just wanna get this whole rant over with.
I know I had other points, but they were all just other useless rants like these, and I forgot them.
So to some it all up:
Puckleberry has amazing potential, whereas PQ and FR are just tired old cliches. Go watch High School Musical if you want to watch the hot jock fall in love with the gorgeous nerd. Go get you brain, eyes, and ears checked if you think that it's going to be true love just because Puck got Quinn pregnant and knocked her up. Oh yeah, nothing says love like a teenage pregnancy.
