This is a fangirl post that also hates on stupid 'shipnames

[misscam]

Nice article on 'New Earth' (Beware spoilers!)

Still the new Doctor, who Piper describes as "more emotional, with good hips" gets to do plenty of stunts in the new series.

Bwhah! "More emtional, with good hips" indeed. That so needs to be on an icon.

Meanwhile, I'm lusting over Doctor Who merchandice. I so want a wee little Ten. And a Nine and a Rose and a Dalek t-shirt and more Daleks and the new books and a TARDIS and and and why aren't I filthy, filthy rich? The world's so unfair.

I am a sad little fangirl.

Also, CSI fandom? STOP BEING A WANKY THING OF WANK. It's a sad thing when I almost hope my 'ships or any other come to pass because the gloating and wailing would drive me to minor whinging. Let's try for some love before I utterly give my fangirl heart to BBC, eh?

And your ship names are still largly idiotic, and sending me e-mails with phrases such as "for the love of all things Grillows" aren't helping matters. Okay? Those maritime phrases you think are all clever are getting a bit tiresome, FYI. And could we maybe retire Dido's "White Flag" from 'ship use by now?

Maybe I should start a movement against horrid 'shipnames, ho hum.

So, for a meme: What's the 'ship name you really hate and why? (Alternatively, what's a 'ship name you hope never ever come to pass in your fandom(s) and why?)

Oy, so agree with with you about Fresley. I only used it in the "interests" list for wfsurvivors since other people use it. I much prefer just using the character initials.

And ohhhh, I pray that we never see a cutesy nickname for Doctor/Rose. I've seen some scary suggestions already...
