Re: MEME PET PEEVES

it is overwhelmingly shipping memes because that is what most people are into.

Every time someone makes this dumb complaint, some other anon tallies up the memes and shows that the ratio is nowhere near as unbalanced as everyone pretends. And I guess this time that other anon is me.

On Bakerstreet's front page right now there are currently 15 gen memes, 11 shipping memes, and 4 that provide prompts for both. Even if you count all of the dual purpose memes as shipping memes that's still a 50/50 split. That's not 'overwhelmingly' shipping memes or even 'mostly' shipping memes.

If it's not about feeling oppressed then why are the staunch gen-only players always crying about how shipping is overrunning Bakerstreet?
