1. Character-bashing. I absolutely HATE character bashing. Okay, there are characters I hate, but it doesn't mean I'll bash them so much that they'll become unrecognisable.
2. The way people treat those parings which break THEIR own personal favourite parings. There are a lot of parings I don't like and some which honestly disgust me and some which I can't understand why people would want to ship them. But respect, that is the key. I am afraid sometimes people just forget that way too easily. Shipping wars: Dear God please no.
3. When people write slash but immediatly shun you when you say you're a gay or somehow 'different'. If you actually say that you have a disorder, some of your relatives are in prison, etc... I come to fandom to seek acceptance. Otherwise, go fuck yourselves.
4. When people confuse the actors and the characters. Actors have their own lives, so stalking is not fun. They aren't those characters, you idiots!
5. The fact all the cons are somewhere far away and then people just BRAG about them all the time. (sorry, couldn't invent anything else ^_~)
Have to admit, I agree with your pet peeves. One of the reasons I'm no longer following CSI:NY is peeve 1, 2 and 4.
I know what you mean re: cons being far away too, seeing as I apparently don't live that far away from you (well, still a couple of hours in a plane, but you know), which means I do live that far away from most cons.
1. Sasuke. Please kill him already? I have never liked him and I'll never care about him. If he dies, preferably painfully and shunned I'll be waving flags.
2. The fact that obviously women can only be healers. Yeah, I agree with you about this. I have a feminist streak (or actually I just want to be equal, but still...)
3. Why Konoha-nins are so bloody clean, nice, goody-goody guys? They are ninjas for chrissakes, assassins! They kill people! For money!
4. Why main characters won't die. It is a dangerous profession, I am not interested in deus ex machina and revival! Okay, I don't like when my favourite characters die, but it gives a huge amount of depth in the story.
5. More about Naruto's past please. Why he started protecting village so furiously, the whole beginning! If he was so shunned, why isn't he bitter? What made him like that?
I Did comment it, but I forgot to mention that in devianbtart my nick is Hanjeu. ^^'
1. Zuko from Avatar the Last Airbender. He is just so awesome! He actually has depth, I love his personal journey and his backstory. He just is so bloody awesome!
2. David Hodges from CSI. I give a high-pitched squeal everytime he appears. He is snarky, smart and wonderful.
3. Ron Weasley. From Harry Potter. He was my first favourite character in the wholse series and just...there are things I can just relate with him.
4. Rin from Blade of the Immortal. She has grown so much! She has changed, became a grown-up and...her awesomeness just grown with time.
5. Renji. This was hard, because there are other great characters in Bleach, likie Grimm, Orihime, Keigo and Ichigo... BUt Renji has that streak, you know? He isn't the most powerful, but he is strong and protects people. And he totally is interested in Byakuya. XD
