@the mod: how do you feel about the really odd questions?

{Depends on what “really odd” means. 😉 A lot of the stuff that actually gets posted to the odd-questions tag is hilarious, imo, especially the stuff that ribs on Bill or the stuff that sets up a perfect witty reply from him. It’s great getting meme or crack questions because they’re a fun break from the serious ones or the ones that require a lot of research. And honestly, the more ridiculous, the better. This one dude once wrote this entire series of asks in which he invented increasingly elaborate ways to throw tea into Bill’s pond (because the Bill that I’m writing is the animeverse one, who speaks with that hilariously fake British accent we Americans keep giving our cartoon characters).

Then there’s the other definition of odd, which doesn’t really get posted (and sometimes doesn’t get posted at all). Like, if a question is a little on the fetishy side, then those get extremely uncomfortable to work with, mostly because some of these fetishes tread uncomfortable waters. For example, there was more than one ask about thumb-sucking baby pokémon, and the amount of detail spent on describing said thumb-sucking baby pokémon made it obvious that they were actually sent in by the age-regression/adult baby fandom. And I know ykinmk, but 1) please don’t put your fetishes in someone else’s ask box (unless you’re on a blog for that fetish), and 2) um……. /psa

Then of course there are the asks that kinda tread into other kinds of offensive waters, like that time someone really wanted to make Cynthia straight.

Point is, good odd? Hilarious. Keep them coming! Bad odd? Bit uncomfortable there. D:}
