So glad someone suggested fandom peeves as an ask game bc it gives me an excuse to talk about my most irrational pet peeve: the overuse of the phrases “o-akay” and “okay-a” in fanfics
Listen, I get it, it was very funny that I messed up a modern English phrase, but just because I couldn’t say it exactly right doesn’t mean I didn’t know when to use it! I knew when it would be more appropriate to say “alright” or just “okay” or even “cool”!! Part of the reason I got the phrase wrong was because I didn’t use it all that often!
All of my love to fanfic authors, of course. Like I said, it’s definitely my most irrational complaint. It can just be sort of frustrating to read scenes where those phrases are thrown in just to reference back to the show without thinking about if it’s natural in the conversation or not.
(Also, while I’m here, my opinion on self shipping: I personally believe that anyone who self ships with any character from this show is 100% valid. I absolutely daydream about being part of the Staten Island polycule lmao)
