1. Man. You know, I don't get people who actually use smushed pairing names. Especially in multi-fandom endeavors. It's a little... what's the word I'm looking for... stupid? cliquish? Your pairings are not special enough for everyone to know what those grade-school level compound words mean, morons.
2. Though, in truth, it doesn't matter. I pretty much assume anyone using smushed names has an iq below grade-school level. Seriously, I tend to picture people who use them as unwashed, greasy thirteen year old boys. No education, no socialization, and certainly no intelligence.
3. It always amused me that Stargate: SG-1 never suffered them. I doubt the fandom was more mature, it's just harder to do smushed names. Atlantis is rife with them (have I mentioned lately how awesome it is that stupid-tastic show got canceled?), but that's no surprise given how badly-written the show is. Crap like that tends to attract unintelligent people. BSG is trying a few on for size, but the fandom seems almost too-small. Torchwood, NCIS.... Sigh. Unwashed idiots rule. I don't know about Bones, I stay far away (besides, really... Brenth? Anggins? ... yeah, no)
4. There's always a downside to something like that, of course. DC is canceling two female character titles, and Marvel is canceling She-Hulk. Yeah, I can see how your companies are just trying so hard to attract a female audience. Though, given personal observation, you should just do a shittily-drawn comicbook version of Brokeback Mountain. The ladies will come a-runnin' for cock.
5. Note to self: plastic the windows and buy a ladder this weekend. Living without overhead light is annoying.
