Okay I'll bite - what the fuck was the deal with the #unfollowmishacollins thing? I'm a member of cl_spn and I generally enjoy the humor there, but did you realize how obnoxious and insulting you were being? On LJ we all know the game, and those who don't will either learn or go crying to their flist about those meen capslockers, but that kind of behavior towards someone who had no way of knowing what kind of person you were and what your sense of humor was like? Was I missing part of the joke or did you just get carried away with the 12-year-old act?
(This is not a general hater thing. I generally respect you quite a bit, but this was just too far in my book. Also, go ahead and unscreen if you like, I'm sure others will have similar questions.)
I'm not entirely sure how it started anymore, but I know it was when I (and a few others I'm friends with) were getting a little fed up with certain Misha/Castiel fen and some of his tweets. It was pretty much just a joke between a few friends on Twitter for awhile. We would send tweets to one another and then end with #unfollowMishaCollins and it was all in good fun. Then, someone (I don't remember if it was me or someone else) actually tweeted that to HIM and we all just followed suit

For a long time I only knew of you as the person who headed the #unfollowmishacollins movement and who planned the bring up the whole debacle to him at Vancon. I thought the entire thing was beyond obnoxious, and I assumed you were too. However, looking at your last post and at your reply to the anon comment you left unscreened, I'm thinking I was wrong. You've done some things I find questionable, you seem nice, levelheaded, and reasonable. So now I find myself rather liking you. (I know. Anon praise from someone who hardly knows you; it's worth so much.)
I'm kind of a tough-sell as of late. I don't post much anymore and I really only comment on friend's journals or CL_SPN, so it's hard to get to know me except through those means. I try to keep certain humor restricted to certain areas (ie: to CL_SPN), or where I know it'll be properly received, just because I know the kind of rep members of capslock get.
Depending on who you ask, I AM pretty damn obnoxious, but whatever. It's the internet and if people don't like me? I'm not going to cry and cut myself over it. I've got bigger things like graduating and finding a real job to worry about, not whether someone on the internet thinks I'm being a dick.
Anon praise is better than anon hate in my book, so thanks :)
(I didn't know whether to unscreen your comment or not, so I left it screened just in case. lol idk why I responded since you didn't ask a question...)
