I like both the wide applicability of "Oh, please, you call that a flame war?" and the straight-to-the-pointness of "My fandom kills lesbians".
Fun-knee.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
amych, I was just wondering - how many fandoms have morally ambiguous principals?

Deb, Smallville has one.
I love the Giles one.

BWAH! What are the odds? Is he a hottie?
"You call that a flame war?"
They really are brilliant.

Those slackers! They skipped a principal. You're supposed to have the nice-but-ineffective principal who gets killed by a possessed student on a rampage, then the evil principal, and only then do you get the morally ambiguous principal.
You can't skip the evil principal. It's just wrong. Amateurs.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think the current SV principal is effectively evil. Not big-scale evil, but he's pissy to Lex, and what more do we need to judge him?

My fandom eats you starting with your bottom.
I am ridiculously attatched to the phrase 'it eats you starting with your bottom' to start with, but that's just... it's making me hysterical.

I love the "my fandom kills lesbians" one. TARA!!!
Aside from being pissy to Lex for making Clark late for school, and being mean to Clark for being late to school because he was blowing Lex in his car, I'm not sure the Smallville principal is morally ambiguous at all.
And he's not at all McHot.
