Fandom, music, and the invocation of Zues.

[impy]

Warning. Gross generalization coming up in 3...2...1...

warned you!

Why is it that, generally speaking, Spuffy fans are also Pacey/Joey fans, Cole/Phoebe fans [at least they were at one time], and Jess/Rory fans? Is there some ... law that says that if you gathered 100 fans of said couples, at least 85 of them would support all the 'ships above?

This is not to say these are bad people, the fans. I'm just curious, that's all.

Also, I like Coldplay. I really, truly do. But sweet merciful Zues, each of their videos is about 2 hours long. Or maybe it just seems that way when I'm attempting to find/catch a video I like before going to bed. Hrmm.

Evanescence on the WB's Smash was different. The Ataris bugged me, but mainly because I don't consider screaming the lyrics the same as singing. *shrug*

the 'shippers

I think the common denominator in all those couples you mentioned is that the guy is considered the bad boy. Pacy as opposed to Dawson (Mr. Perfect), Jess as opposed to Dean (see Dawson), Cole as opposed to...a human, and Spike as opposed to...well, a human.

So, all the people who like the major cliche of good girl/bad boy are going to go for all the same couples. That's my theory. Or they're all just delusional.

Kidding! Don't kill me, friends who are 'shippers of any of the above couples!

i agree to some extent w/ the person above.

hehe, i pretty much fall into your sterotype w/ everything but the phobe/w/e ship (i don't watch charmed) but also keep in mind that even if spuffy mostly support these ships, they may ship other's as well! (like me)
