I hear about a plot that sounds like it might come out of my own brain and get all excited because maybe this is gonna be an awesome fic and I have such a hard time finding those.

My excitement is dashed by OCs and groups I can't stand.

What's worse is if I've already told the author that I'm excited to check out their fic. It is so embarrassing to have to be all, "Yeah, so.... um.... I won't be reading your fic after all. Good luck with that and have a nice day and sorry for getting your hopes up that you might have another reader. Bye!" If I don't say anything at all I feel like a jerk. Either way I feel like a jerk, but man... why do people have to ruin awesome ideas with crappy groups and OCs? Like... seriously. *deep sigh*

Thought the day was going to start out well. I was wrong. And now I'm sad.
