Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That is weird looking- she looks like a miniature person!
What's crazy is that she's the normal-sized one!

I don't even watch Walking Dead and I already hate AMC for firing Frank Darabont.
How can they be so stupid with successful shows? They've got a gaggle of golden geese and they just want to cut off their feet and beat them with sticks.

I am a total spoilerphobe. I remember when it happened, I was spoiled for Angel turning human in IWRY, and I spent the whole time waiting for it to happen and wondering how, and didn't enjoy the show until then. After that, I just didn't want to know.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I'm with you, Vortex. I glare suspiciously at that study.

Compassionately intolerant
I'm 5 foot nuthin' and had a bf for years who was 6'5". People laughed. It was never really a problem, though. He used to say, 'Everything is equal when you are horizontal.'
I kind of liked it. Much more than the bf who was shorter than me. That one had a great sense of style and I enjoyed wearing his clothes, but the convenience wasn't worth it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
But everything isn't equal when you're horizontal. I never understood that.
It send weird for a study to be that conclusive about something so many people personally disagree with. It can't make spoilerphobes suddenly not exist or be okay with advanced news.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
But everything isn't equal when you're horizontal.
Well, the difference in heights is more about the legs than torso, usually. Even with those two, the difference between their torso lengths is much less dramatic.

This article says:
But in all three kinds of short stories, people like the texts with the spoilers worked into the opening graphs about as much as they liked the unspoiled texts.
And I'm sorry, but that sounds like foreshadowing rather than spoiling -- if it's in the first paragraph of the story, by definition, it is not a "shocking twist" story!
