Just Say NO

[mickeym]

I really need an icon that says that.

People. Please, for the love of God, STOP USING "smex" (or any variation of it). It's not a real word, it makes no sense, and if you have to resort to cutesy terms when doing your notes/headers on a story? You probably shouldn't be playing in the adult sandbox. (As seen on a recent header: "Pure SMEX and nothing but SMEX" - and just. No.)

Just. Say. No.

This rant brought to you courtesy of too much stress, not enough writing, and hugely swollen feet. Sorry to the innocent bystanders caught up in it.

Isn't that why you would use the Genre or Warning PWP?

Right?

Oh, and you must be stressed because last time you ranted about this you also bitched and rightly so about drabbles having 100 words exactly. Anything else is not a drabble.

Hope the swelling goes down in your feet and that some of your stress goes away.

Well, frankly, I don't even worry about the PWP part. Or "warn" for sex. If it has a rating of R/NC-17, and I have Sam/Dean listed (or any other two male characters), there's a VERY GOOD chance it's going to contain sex. So why the HELL would you warn for it? o_O

I am very stressed right now. Potential layoff at work, but also the possibility of bumping someone else (with lower seniority) out of their job, and just--argh. I don't WANT any of it.

Funny how it's the stupid little stuff that really gets to us when we're under the weather, or stressing, isn't it?
