So tiresome.

Can we agree to a moratorium on "I like slash as much as the next person, but why do people slash THIS pairing? It doesn't make sense because they seem so straight/there's an age difference/they have canon interests....etc" posts?

Wishful thinking, I know. And sometimes I even agree with the poster. But really--this kind of thing is getting so boring and most slash is based on subtext, which is more than a little bendy depending on who's interpreting it. So why bother?

Eh. I think there's this thing in fandom where it's assumed that no one has ever had this argument before in the history of the Internet! No, in the history of fandom! No, in the history of the WORLD!

And eventually all you want to do is go, "You know, back in my day we had to walk ten miles, in the snow, uphill, both ways just to get our Mulder/Krycek slash!" Then you wave your cane at them and tell them to get off your virtual lawn.
