I find this thread very amusing and mostly agreeable. I'm not surprised, Anonymous Villain is here .
Fanfictions (some exceptions) and Shipping (almost no exceptions) are one of the urks of the fandom. Most are poorly written, have a sloppy story, and/or very uninteresting. Those Blue Wings, for example, was one that would have been better off without the shipping. Dusk Shine was a bomb from the start. My Little Dashie...well, I personally didn't hate it, but the storyline had large holes.
I am also disappointed by the writers of the show trying to please the bronies. Don't feed them!!!
