Summary: Some sage advice done in a filk to the tune of 'The Farmer And The Cowman' by Oscar Hammerstein. Originally posted to ASC on May 1, 2006.
Author's Notes: We've never seen this as an issue here on ASC and were slightly taken aback when we noticed it was an issue on some other
forums. This little offering got stuck in Mrs. Whoa Nellie's head and Ms. Whoa Nellie goaded her on with it's funny, post it! For the
mutilation of Rodgers and Hammerstein that you are about to read, Whoa Nellie sincerely begs forgiveness.
Acknowledgements: Paramount owns all the Star Trek marbles. The song 'The Farmer And The Cowman' is from the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical "Oklahoma."

The Fanboy And The Shipper
Oh the fanboy and the shipper should be friends
Oh the fanboy and the shipper should be friends
One writer likes to push a pairing
The other likes to chase a plot
But that's no reason why they can't be friends
Fanfic folks should stick together
Fanfic folks should all be pals
Fanboys dance with the shippers' pairings
Shippers dance with the fanboys' plots
Fanfic folks should stick together
Fanfic folks should all be pals
Fanboys dance with the shippers' pairings
Shippers dance with the fanboys' plots
I'd like to say a word for the fanboy
He came out to post and made a lot of changes
He came out to post and created a lot of techy advances
And posted right across our little romances!
The fanboy is good with constructive criticism
No matter what the shipper says or thinks
You seldom see 'im flamin in a shipper war
Unless somebody else is winning votes.
Oh the fanboy and the shipper should be friends
Oh the fanboy and the shipper should be friends
The shipper has a character emote with ease
The fanboy creates the weapons and enemies
That's no reason why they can't be friends
Fanfic folks should stick together
Fanfic folks should all be pals
Fanboys dance with the shippers' pairings
Shippers dance with the fanboys' plots
I'd like to say a word for the shippers
The road they tread is difficult and wistful
They write fer days on end with nothing but wishing for a muse.
I sure am feeling sorry for the muse!
The fanboy should be sociable with the shipper
If they post an' asks fer feedback and critique
Don't treat 'im like a simpleton
Make them welcome in your forum
But be sure that you're not expecting any substance or a plot!
Oh the fanboy and the shipper should be friends

Ain't nobody gonna flame anything! This here's a hobby for fun!
Break it up ya fools! Alright, everyone, sing it.
Dum-dah-dee-um-dum-dum
Oh the fanboy and the shipper should be friends

But that's no reason why they can't be friends
And with this forum being a website
found on the net just like all the others
The fanboy, the shipper, and the lurker
Must all behave theirselves and act like brothers
I'll teach you all a little sayin'
And learn the words by heart the way you should
I don't say my fanfic is better than anybody else's
But I'll be danged if it ain't just as good!
