lookeee! icon and thoughts regarding the detestable "spuffy" ::snicker::

[timepiececlock]

I made a pretty (i think) S/B icon using the the translated lyrics from the second season opening of Naruto. Which is a weird crossover, but hey-- they were pretty and it works. The last pic is one of my favorite Spike images ever. They're all from the second to last ep of BTVS.
Anyway, it's shareable for anyone who wants it. :smiles:

And now onto the meat of my post...

It seems a few people whose journals/websites I've read recently have decided to reject the fan relationship term "Spuffy." They then proceed to cite reasonable and meticulously thought-out complaints (the primary one being "It's just stupid.") and proclaim that they have decided not to use said term any longer. They say it sounds demeaning and silly, and makes fun of a very. serious. and. respectable. canon. ship.

I agree completely. Excellent decision. I always liked the term Spiffy better anyway.



No, seriously, I did.

Hey, are you listening?! I'm being serious here.....

I didn't really like Spuffy when everyone started using it rather than S/B or B/S. But I kinda got accustomed to it.

What's really funny is that before people started using "spuffy," I used to SAY it accidentally. Like, instead of saying "Buffy and Spike" I'd say "Spuffy and Bike." Because apparently I've never learned to talk properly. *g*

I just don't get the whole smushed names for ships, though. I mean, I guess people are trying to be cute? Maybe? Who the hell knows.
