Another little fic rant thing...

[switch842]

If on the show you are writing a fic for, the characters are seen freely saying the phrases "Oh my God" or "Thank God," why would you then write these characters as saying "Oh my gawd" thence turning them into a valley girl and me to immediately stop reading the story or "Thanks the gods" turning them into ancient Greeks and again me to stop reading the story? Seriously. If you have such offence to those phrases, pick something else entirely that's not even close. Like, "Holy crap!" or even "Thank goodness." But "gawd" and "the gods"? No. Just no.
