Oh fer cryin' out loud
Feb. 3rd, 2009 09:37 pmI just realized something.
Some people have noted that the name of last week's SPN episode -- "After School Special" and not "Afterschool Special" -- was kind of odd. I thought it was because ABC might have trademarked the name "Afterschool Special" but I think I just figured out why they did it. Because they know the fandom turns all of the episode names into acronyms.
ASS. Get it? So now any discussion of "After School Special" is going to have ASS all over it.
Sigh.
Well, actually, good. I hope this is the end of the acronym crap. I'm sick of seeing alphabet soups littering every discussion about Supernatural. I mean really people...acronyms like AYTGIMDW and IKWYDLS are absolutely ludicrous. Is it really so hard to call it "Are You There..." or "I Know..." or something similarly abbreviated?
