Miss Misery:
I write House/Wilson slash. So sue me.

A review for my House/Wilson story "A Pain That I'm Used To":

This was a great story until you had them kissing. EW! I'm not a lover of slash. Ruined the whole story IMO.--Captain Hank

Interesting. House and Wilson sleeping in the same bed is fine (Chapters 2, 4, and 7), but kissing (Chapter 9) is off limits for the aforementioned Captain Hank. Yeesh.

I could send a PM to this, ahem, person, but I'm not going to. I'll just end up playing right into his hands and start a flame war. That's exactly what he wants. and if I react, the terrorists win. Nope, I'll just leave his little review up for all the world to see.

Read the offending slash *gasp! it's the end of the world!* fic here: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3302503/1/.

I don't know who those people are (I don't watch TV except for Stargate) but anti-slashers always seem to express their hatred of slash BY READING IT. They deliberately ignore the warnings just so they can email you (us slash writers) and say how "disgusted" they were. I just think, "Get a life" and ignore it.

I dowloaded a file years ago (about Blake's 7 slash - another show I've never seen) that had a very good quote in it, something like, "I've never heard of a slash zine following people about, flapping and screaming, 'Read me, read me'!" People have to seek slash out. Why seek out something you're going to hate? They're idiots.

I do find that, in general, slash is usually very well-written. I think it has to be, because the relationships and situations have to be believable. I love going to various sites and looking for long, well-written slash stories. I have more than two THOUSAND Sentinel slash stories on my hard drive. And 90% of them are excellent.

Ulla dances in a silly way:
Some people just need their eyes glued shut.

I'll never understand someone complaining about entertainment that offends them. It's entertainment for FSM's sake! No one makes you watch/read/see/lick it! I don't care for teen melodramas... so I don't watch them. It's that simple.

IndianInlaw:
Why don't they write their own stories?  Then they can make THEIR characters do what THEY want them to! :P

Cyndi:
LOL that's laughable. I think people who leave reviews like that are just looking to make themselves feel bigger when they aren't. Or they're bored.

Personally, I love anime slash. Piccolo/Gohan all the way!



Funny thing about House. Every time I see him I want to rub his stubble :P
