Comic slash writers! If your universe is undergoing heavy restructuring--the ongoing DCU Infinite Crisis, for example--please have the decency to respect your audience's decision not to read spoilers. This means:
I was less than pleased to see a story summary talking about a much loved--by my standards--character's death as though it had happened. After screeching in horror, and tears welling up in my eyes, I summoned the courage to click onto the story to find that the source of my trauma was fucking rumours. *sigh*
Now that my relief has worn off I shall now take out my ire on the inept author instead of firing off an irate email to DC.
In other news. There is no other news. I'm developing a nice, seasonal cold so I'll be able to impress my nieces with my Rudolph nose in time for Christmas. Dave is out playing pool, there's nowt on TV, and there's no one online to gossip with.
At this rate I'll be reduced to calling my parents.

- no writing story summaries which contain spoilers
- no summaries which claim that the story has no spoilers, but it actually does
- and finally, don't write a fucking summary talking about dramatic character death which is based on internet rumours and present it as FACT.
