[ what the fucking fuck ]

so sandy mccoy, jared's girlfriend, is going to be on the show.¹

i'm told that makes a lot of people very happy. as it ought! i'm told that it makes even more people completely indifferent. as it ought for them, too.

and then, i'm told it makes some people very upset because the show is, apparently, JARED AND JENSEN'S. and not sandy's. apparently, her costume is slutty. apparently, having the girlfriend on set makes it harder to keep her in a seperate mental block from the holy sanctum of the sacred jsquared. apparently, the fact that she has sex makes her unclean or incapable of doing her job as an actress.

because fandom has been using and abusing this term like nobody's business lately, let me PSA for the masses, okay?

tin·hat
Pronunciation: 'tin 'hat
Function: noun
Etymology: Sci-fi, from hat made of aluminum foil so as to keep the alien space rays from getting into your head.
1: Batshit insane.
2: Very gullible; given to believe any sort of ridiculous justification or story which might "prove" that a particular pairing either is happening or might happen.

The term was originally came into the fandom lexicon to define a particular sort of LotRiPS fan who was convinced that, because they allegedly had a series of secret signals such as tying shoes at particular times or wearing particular colors to events, Elijah Wood and Dominic Monahan were clearly dating. The secret signals were designed to communicate availability, positional preference, etc. I would love to tell you I was kidding with regard to this matter but I am not; people actually believed this.

seriously, girls. let's try to be slighly less catty bitches, okay? let's have a nice threesome and call it a night.

ETA: just for the record, there are oodles of people out there who are over the moon happy about this. they're probably writing fic already. go them! i belong to what is surely the largest camp: people who don't much care one way or the other. and if the objection here were that people were arguing sandy was a crappy actress, well that i couldn't find fault with. i might agree or disagree with that opinion, but at least it's based on merit and not tits.

1. and just so you know, i got spoiled for this purely by accident and if any of you further spoil me there will be hell to pay. <3!!

ahaha, shit.

She's really cute. I am pleased.

Man. MAN. I come from a fandom where Shanks' wife got a job on the show and everyone was either "YAY \o/" or "WAIT, THEY'RE MARRIED?" I miss SG-1.

She is gonna rock that part like a rocking thing. \O/

*slow clap*

y'know, i personally don't really have much of an opinion on her being on the show. don't much care.

but seriously, i've seen reactions that are like, my world is all askew i hate it she shouldn't be on the show and. just. for fuck's sake.

I reiterate: people are fucking morons. Fandom never fails to prove it to me. Sigh.

For serious? What is with the vagina hatred? I shake my head at them.

yeah. like. there's a ton of girls that are over the moon about it, i mean, sandy/jared's a big pairing and some folks are ecstatic. good for them! i don't much care either way, but whatever, y'know? and if these people were getting on about how sandy sucks as an actress, well, that at least would be an objection based on merit instead of boobs, y'know? *hands*

You know how I feel about this shit.

People calling Sandy slutty because of a dress that got picked out by WARDROBE? Seriously, I fucking hate when ANYONE is called a slut, but this shit just reeks of ridiculous fangirl tinhattery.

Personally, I think she's cute as a button and as long as she does a good job, I have no complaints. I doubt if she was given the job simply because she's Jared's girlfriend. Kripke doesn't seem like the kind of guy that just give parts away because you happen to be dating a member of the cast/crew.

So whatever. You don't have to like the casting, but calling the girls on the show sluts or untalented or blah blah blah just because they're on the show? Fuckin' grow up. Junior high crap all the way.

one hopes! i would love for my show to be awesome.

dude.

keep in mind that half of fandom is probably already writing gleeful fic about it, habibi. :D

laaaaaaame, no lie.

BINGO, BABY.

Yeah see, that. I can't say as I care either (I probably wouldn't have even known it was her if I hadn't read this). I just flail a little that it's 3 2 1, wankers start your engines.

I'm rooting for threesome fic. :D

i'm told it makes some people very upset because the show is, apparently, JARED AND JENSEN'S. and not sandy's.
I just read a whole post of replies of people saying just that and all I can do is laugh HUGE belly laughs. My mind has been almost totally blown by how mean and nasty people are acting over it.

I don't know how much you are spoiled for this episode, suffice to say I think it is a clever piece of thoughtful casting that will add an emotional layer to an interaction, which otherwise may not carry the weight it should (without adding some backstory in for the character).

that, i am totally behind you on. i guess it's like they say, though, in Gabe's GIFT:

while not made for the same specific reasons, I refer you to my previous remarks on the subject, particularly the concluding sentence.

i can almost guarantee that. :)

so RETARDED. *hands!*

well, you seem to have judged the case based on its merits. which puts you about six billion steps ahead of the rest. <333

women can be such HORRIBLE BITCHES to each other, man, and the sick part is that they think it's okay.

IT'S NOT OKAY.

judged the case based on its merits

that... and the fact that I think she has nice boobs!
