Shipping has always been a bone of contention in and amongst the Harry Potter fandomers, hasn't it?
I remember back in the day, when the Ron/Hermione shippers and the Harry/Hermione shippers would have these huge ceremonial slaughterings once a month, known to last for weeks on end.
Nobody was safe. (Well... there are always exceptions)
You'd have your "logical" ones, who would encourage healthy debate, your snarky puritans, and those weird people who sit there with their fingers in their ears screaming "I AM NOT LISTENING TO YOU. I'M A RACING CAR DRIVER, VROOOM VROOOM VROOOM". I'd imagine that were you to encounter one in real life, they would smell like biscuits, and have enormous bottoms.
At first, it was only the obvious "shippy" moments that were analyzed.
Then it seemed to degenerate. Is it just us, or did every little movement become significant?
Hermione hugged Harry.
H/H shippers: OMG!!111 PROOF!11 IT'S TRUE LOVE!!!!!one!11
Harry saw Draco Malfoy
H/D shippers: *aneurism* OMG DID YOU SEE THAT?@?!?!?!?>!)(FN$W(&?????/// HE SAW DRACO. OMG TRUE LOVE.
Hagrid turned around
Hagrid/Harry shippers (GOD FORBID): OMG LOOK. HAGRID TURNED AROUND. HE TURNED. AROUND. OMG SDFKjksfhd s TRUE LOVE.
And for those poor Ron/Hermione shippers, it was like this:
Hermione hated Ron's christmas present.
Ron/Hermione shippers: AWW, LOOK, SHE HATED HIS CHRISTMAS PRESENT! TRUE LOVE!!!
So there has been debate over where we are from. Yes, we. There are five of us, driven to this by boredom, and we're all from all over the place. Though there is only one person, me, writing this post.
My penis is still the biggest ever.
And one last thing. Christ, you people need to take yourselves, and your fandom less seriously.
