People are becoming way too obsessed over this whole 'Who will Mordecai end up with?' concept, and it's starting to get out of hand. While I think it's perfectly fine to support a certain pairing, there's really no good reason to get into a fight with someone just because they might not feel the exact same way about your opinion as you do. In fact, this is part of the reason why I don't come onto the wiki as much as I used to. Whenver I read my notifications, I see a similar pattern that either involves a discussion about whether Mordecai should end up with CJ or Margaret, or why Mordecai and CJ's relationship is doomed.

I remember when I first joined this wiki how nice everybody was to each other and how much fun a somewhat mundane discussion post could be. Now I look around and see everybody arguing about something that is extremely frivolous because... well, I don't know. What happened to this wiki? To the Regular Show fandom? It disappoints me that certain people will go as far as name calling and swearing just because somebody else might think differently about a specific character. While I'm not trying to say that every single Regular Show fan is like this, it seems as though the romance aspect has become more important than what the show is actually supposed to be about. I mean... is it just me that feels this way? Sometimes I just wish that everybody could set aside their differences for a little bit and enjoy the show for what it is. So what if Mordecai doesn't end up with CJ? So what if Mordecai and Margaret become a couple again? Just sit back and appreciate what the show has to offer and stop getting perturbed over something that probably isn't even going to matter in the long run.

I'm sorry if I've offended anybody, but I have to admit that I'm sick and tired of the whole Margaret vs. CJ debate. If people could just respect one another's opinions, I'd honestly have no problem with a friendly discussion about Mordecai's love life. Instead, I see flame wars and name calling and cursing because everyone thinks they're right and won't be told otherwise. I find it funny when people think that the romance in the show is the problem, when in actuality, it is the fans themselves that are the problem. Think about how much stress the writers must be under in order to produce episodes that they assume (or at least hope) will satisfy the Regular Show community. Of course they're not going to please every single person, and they are most likely fully aware of that. Something that never seems to be taken into consideration, however, is that they are at least trying. We should all just be grateful for that aspect and appreciate it for what it is. Sure, not everybody's going to be content with the outcome, but that's just how it has to be. Hopefully more people will begin to realize this as the series comes to an end.

RANT OVER Couldn't have said it better myself Charismakid, these are the exact reasons why I can't stand shipping wars in general, because they never go anywhere good and usually end with both sides bickering and arguing about who will become the canon couple instead of just enjoying the show for what it is.

Seriously, these reasons are why I stay out of shipping wars and just enjoy shows for what they are, because shipping wars solve NOTHING and only devolve into pissing contests with both sides. Case in point Avatar the Last Air Bender shippers shipping either Zuko/Katara or Aang/Katara or Shakugan no Shana shippers shipping Yuji/Shana or Yuji/Kazumi.
