Ah, Mary Sues. The pinnacle of fanfiction hatred. The characters that are made to get with the canon characters becuase the author thinks he/she is hot and are desperate to be with him/her. The essence of trolling. Step into the world of Mary Sues and their haters! ...Lol, I'm sounding like someone smart I wanted to discuss Sues here. They interest me so and why people try their hardest not make them...

Me. I'm such a Mary Sue, and people tell me that from time to time.

SALLY WEBSTER FROM CORRIE! She gets sick with cancer AND GETS OVER IT! She gets whatever she wants! She's a bad mum! She thinks she's so posh! She's two-faced! Wait, I don't think this is describing a Mary Sue, I think it's a rant on how much I hate the Websters.
I suppose some would call my persona GG a Mary Sue cause she seems to know everything about Doctor Who type science and she always seems to come to Graeme Proctor's aid. But she isn't that much of an MS, she's crazy and unique-ish, read the fic and judge for yourself.

I don't mind people who can accept criticism that their character is a Sue. It shows that they're willing to improve.
But people who are ignorant and flame others who say their character is a Sue really p!ss me off.

Ok, bringing this topic from the grave with this Gary Stu; Bludshot the Hedgehog.
As if you couldn't tell by the name, he's a crappy Sonic recolour. He's the star of his own crappy slideshow series of the same name. The plot is about the main character getting his village burnt down and his parents murdered by Eggman. Now he must find the Chaos Emeralds and kill Eggman.
Doesn't that last sentence sound a tad familiar?
In a summary: It's nothing more than a slideshow of Sonic X screencaps and other pics recoloured in MS Paint. Bad voice acting, an unoriginal plot and cliches galore make the slides a pain to watch. The original videos aren't online anymore, but you can find many parodies and commentary on the original videos on YouTube.
