First it was DL shippers not being able to handle any shipping that isn't ZOMG!CANON. Now people are bitching about the ZOMG!CANON fucking up their shipping. I'm getting to the point where I don't even want to go into TalkCSI without a hazmat suit.

Some promo pics for CSI: NY 5x07 were posted in the pics and spoiler threads: talk.csifiles.com/showpost.php and some of us started saying that it looks like Flack and Angell are doing more than the flirting TPTB said they'd be doing. OK, no problem. We also said why we wouldn't like it to go past flirting. Still no problem. It was also brought up that Adam might be asking Stella on a date. Yep. no problem. Then these comments popped up: Fanit #1 said: Yeah I was hoping all the Flack/Angell stuff would still be more background for now... Not that I'm not thrilled Flack is getting more stories I've just always been a little... underwhelmed by Angell... Though I suppose I'm biased because I have my own AU ship that while I know will never happen I'm still rather attached to it (see banner). Fanit #2 (a Mac/Stella shipper) said: Adam and Stella dating? Not a chance!! He is so not her type and a bit to young, but him having a crush on her I can see. I'm thinking more Adam and Flacks sister and I think somewhere along the line he askd Stellas advice or somthing to do with it. Fanit #3 responds to Fanit #1: Same here. I think it's partly because I feel that the more Angell is on the show, the less screentime Flack will have, and partly because my OT(het)P is Flack and Stella for ever! Fanit #1 comes back and adds: As for Adam and Stella...?? What the hell were the writers smokin' when they felt like that was a good idea?? Or is Adam going to turn into some crazy stalker now too. So fictional characters can't hook up on a show because you personally don't ship them together?? And if Adam asks Stella out he is obviously some psycho because Stella can only attract psychos?? I don't really ship anyone seriously. There are pairings I like more than others and I read fanfic for a bunch of pairings, but I wouldn't call myself a shipper. I'm also fairly new to online fandoms. I thought shipping was supposed to be fun and part of that fun was being able to use your imagination and creativity to come up with pairings and scenarios that weren't spoon fed to you by the show. I must have missed a day of Shipping 101 or something.
