I'm no Carol fan, I'll admit (Though it's because I'll never relate to or respect staying with a man who hurts your child pre-zombie apocalypse. And don't fucking tell me she had no choice. Just don't. It's not true and it won't be true despite what your emotions may tell you. Emotions aren't meant to rule you.)

...but 1) she's not that popular, 2) she's not that plain looking, 3) being old gains you no popularity in fandom.
