I feel resentful for his popularity for some reason.
I DO, TOO! It's strange, because the show began with such a small fanbase, but now...well, I should just be thankful that others have discovered its awesomeness!
THEY'VE STOLEN OUR BROTP AND BEATEN OUR HEADS OVER WITH IT. WE GET IT. THEY'RE HOT. LOVELY. AWESOME. BUT TEN FICS A DAY ON THEM? haha, that's just how i feel though. too much fanart/fic for a ship. Never thought I'd say that...
You do write awesome fic! I don't know, I don't even read them anymore, much less write. I've never been able to write them the way I see them, though. YOURS I WOULD READ, THOUGH!
I'm just replyin to comments as well now! You and Tori always succeed in doing that to me. Not that I hate it. AND YAY FOR FIC! Another great form of distractions.
And I think, too, that some of these newbies have an unrealistic view of Barney.
Like they were complaining about Barney being mean to the kid in the last episode, but GUESS WHAT? Barney is NOT a nice guy! I love him, but he's not nice . . . not even always to his friends.
This is so true. I didn't like the last episode much, but I saw the complaints on Barney being mean when I didn't see it as being out there. Um, how often is he even nice? What I love about characters is recognizing that they are human and people--their flaws are inherent, and you can't make excuses for them, or complain when they act a particular way when it's in frickin character! Some fans...
I know! I don't even WANT the characters like Barney to be nice all the time. That's when I'D start complaining! I mean, they're going to have to careful just to make him still be "Barney" when he's with Robin! He's NOT going to be a perfect boyfriend!
Uber-sweet characters always make me want to off myself. I like snarky attitudes and all that sort of stuff. Well, too much of anything is off-putting.
I also worry about how they're going to handle Barney and Robin, but I've got faith that the writers will keep Barney in character whilst showing that he does genuinely care for Robin. At least they better do it right!
