SOMEONE IS WRONG ON THE INTERNET!
Feb. 10th, 2011 12:16 amI need to just back away from the internets tonight. Everywhere I turn, someone is Wrong and Needs to Be Told.
For one thing, I need to stay away from anon memes. It's all fun and games when it's LOLcats and "Which Doctor would you shag?", but then someone has to go and say Amy Pond has poor characterization. I mean...what? Of all the criticisms I've heard of Series 5 in general and Amy in particular, poor characterization? What? What? You keep using that word: I do not think it means what you think it means.
Also: people are allowed to enjoy whatever television programs they want, right?
*sigh* I have started, and then (wisely) backed away from so many replies tonight...

Rose and the Doctor's relationship is TOTALLY a powder keg. Which is sad, because really, what does it matter? People are so convinced that everyone has to think exactly the same as them, even with things as silly as ships for a tv show, and anyone who doesn't is SO WRONG OMG.
but why do they have to stomp all over everyone else's good time and insist that people who think different are somehow "doing it wrong"?
Couldn't have said it better myself. :)

I am really appreciative, though, that we have been promised an answer! I hate it when shows are all about sustaining the mystery indefinitely, and never get around to providing an answer.
