He was asking you to explain what you were saying before.

each side had it's idiots...
but actually, I distinctly recall seeing some people who intelligently argue Zutara without putting Kataang down. I have yet to see the opposite. guess my age/maturity theory still holds. =D

Well, I still remember the arguments of the whole, "kids show/guy getting the girl" concept as not putting Zutara down...
Still, I doubt age and maturity have anything to do with shipping.

Well, I used the concept of "the hero always gets the girl" thing lots of times, especially sense it's an American cartoon.
Now if Avatar was an anime, Zutara would have most likely happen; and the fight scenes would have been more bloody.

or better yet if I wrote avatar.
the best part about me is when I say the ending sucked, people can't use "well why don't you write a better ending then?" against me, because I can.

I think this "Kataang X Zutara" stuff is getting a little old. But it's funny, so... whatever. I'm with Kataang because they have always liked each other. And Zuko was a bad guy, so it's wierd for Katara to leave Aang to keep him. I mean... he could only a friend, that's my opinion.
Orophin, what do you mean with "kids show/guy getting the girl"?

I think he means that some boys have romantic interests in the opposite gender and that if that girl was taken by someone who barely showed romantic interests in them, wouldn't that be a rather crushing thing to happen? There is also the fact that even though Aang saved the world, he doesn't get the girl he really likes? That would certainly not be a good thing to tell kids that even if you are not a good person (I'm not saying Zuko is a bad person, but Aang has done way more to help others) you can still be rewarded? definitely not something you want to tell kids.

Kataang seemed more like a schoolkid crush; Zutara seemed more like a fangirl's dream come true.
Either way, I'm against both of them, because there are way too many fans that get butthurt when shipping wars come into play. You've got the immature Kataangers who say "OMG ITZ CANON GUYZZZZZ!!!" on one side, and you've got the "OMG ZUTARA FOREVUH!!! OPPOSITEZ ATTRAKT!!!" on the other.
I have yet to see some decently mature shippers, though I myself have run into a few. Surprisingly, most of them were Zutarians. Kataangers seemed more ignorant, as if anything besides their ship was blasphemy. I've seen it all around.
Bar the few Zutarians I met that could actually give reasonable output to their claims (I have yet to see a Kataanger put it to me maturely. I know the answers, but no, all I ever get is crap. that's beside the point though). Anyways, apart from those select few, Zutarians are terrible. I would go into a more elaborate description of them, but the crazy rabid fangirl part shows up and BAM!!! I run for my life.
So all in all, shipping is for squares. We crack-shippers have all the fun. (because you can't deny the Zuko+Aang or the Azula+Suki in certain episodes, rite?)
So in conclusion, Kataang sucks. Zutara sucks. The End.
