Re: AND I'M SICK OF "I DON'T UNDERSTAND" SECRETS/COMMENTS/WHATEVER

I like this comment. I like this comment a LOT.
I hate the whole "I don't understand" thing when the topic at hand is not that difficult to understand at all. Like "I don't understand why people ship Harry/Draco, they're clearly enemies lol people be mad dumb" I'M PRETTY SURE YOU UNDERSTAND THAT PEOPLE FIND THE IDEA OF ENEMY/ENEMY LOVE STORIES APPEALING, AS THEY ARE CONSIDERED UNEXPECTED AS WELL AS FORBIDDEN. IF YOU STILL HATE THE IDEA, FINE, HATE IT WITH THE RED-HOT INTENSITY OF A THOUSAND SUNS, BUT STFU WITH THE STUPID, I'M-SO-SUPERIOR-TO-YOU-CRAZY-PEOPLE "WELL GOLLY GEE I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND" BULLSHIT.
And I don't ship Harry/Draco at all, as far as ships go, I range from mild like to mild dislike on it. But I am definitely not going to ask someone to waste their time explaining so simple a concept to me by saying I don't understand it.
Why can't people just say they don't like something? stfu with this "don't understand", it makes it damn near impossible to tell if a person's being like that or they genuinely don't understand and need an explanation.
