Atlantis fandom on Springer

(Note: image intensive; contains reference to the big Season 4 casting spoiler that 99.99% of the fandom already knows -- and complains -- about ... but just in case you've managed to remain unspoiled, I thought I'd better mention it...)

I've been managing to steer cheerfully clear of *most* of the wank, and of course shipping wars are not something that affect me, but there are still times when I kinda want to tell the more stressed-out portions of the fandom to take a giant chill pill. Only I don't think I could manage to be *nearly* this funny about it.

(And the little chibi South Park cast is SO CUTE!)

Somehow I missed anything more than the first pic.

*sporfles madly*

You know, the only reason I know about the wank is that I see people say "fandom is wanking and I'm trying to steer clear of it."

I think I like it better that way.

Also, linnet_101 is genius and the South Park thing is the best ever (especially Steve).

[sholio]

I know. The point where Steve shows up was the point where I totally DIED.

It helps with avoiding at least some of the wank that I really couldn't care less about most of the ships. I mean, I don't mind if people want to ship various characters; it's just not my thing. So discussions about it don't even register on my radar.

*chuckles* Those SGA southpark figures were hilarious! Ronon especially looked very uhm...Ronon-like. :D

Oh, I wanted to ask you if it's okay for me to friend you. I finally got me an LJ-account so my reviews won't show up as 'anonymous' anymore :)

Looking forward to more of your stories!

[sholio]

*laughs* Ronon's little scowly-eyes cracked me up...

And I certainly don't mind if you friend me. The more the merrier! :)

*lol*

Funny how some of the comments in the panels were "plot elaments" I was thinking about using in my PWP totally AU story. *g*

All in all, she did an excellent job making fun of all the elements in this fandom.

I love my SGA, but I'm not a frenzied shipper in any direction (I admit that I have my shipper fanaticisms in other fandoms, just not SGA.) ;)

[sholio]

There's nothing wrong with shipping (though generally I don't) but it is weird just how fanatic people can get over it in a fandom like SGA where most of the ships are largely or entirely subtextual. It's a little different in a universe like Buffy where most of the ships are very above-board and supported by canon...
