Which I read heretically and enjoyed in the same way.
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Belatedly, it occurs to me to ask, what pushes a fandom towards cute ship names instead of pairing smooshes? (Brought to you by an attempt to parse "Frostiron.")

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
What fandom is that?

Avengers. I assume it's Loki/Tony.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.
Stark and Emma Frost apparently had a thing in the comics at one point (or at least were retconned as having had one), so it could be that too.

I admit that I love "Stark Spangled Banner". Both the cutesy name and the 'ship. I don't buy it, really, but it's fun.

Yep. I have friends who write it.
Personally, I don't get cutesy pairing names OR horrible portmanteaus, but I'm willing to accept that I may be the cranky one on this.

Oh, no, that's always a given. Except for the funny ones.

I think someone on the Internet hates me. In the past two weeks I've gotten four spam messages on temporarily abandoned stories.
This is extra frustrating because when I hit the link, I'm worried it'll be someone berating me for the lack of updates, and wind up extra disappointed that its actually just junk mail.

I get the spam messages sometimes more than once a month. Yes, people on the internet hate us. They're called spammers, and they deride us so much they abuse us on the very offchance of a return.
I went on a date with a guy who wrote spam software when I just moved out to LA. He was incredibly...not contrite. I didn't even pause for a second to consider seeing him again.
