Oh, it is. The people on my Friends List are about the only Naruto fans I like. There are several in the LJ comm I'm a member of who don't annoy me, but it's going to get worse after the dub is released. I've accepted that fact and moved on. I've already distanced myself even more from the FMA fandom of late.
You're completely right about Spike/Julia. I love the idea of Spike/Faye, so when I say that I don't give a damn about Julia, people go, "Oh, that's because you're a S/F 'shipper." Um, no, it's not. I'm usually ambivalent towards the character because we saw so little of her. And, from what I've garnered from Spike's memories and what she said during the last two episodes, she wasn't a very decent person anyway. A woman who slept with her boyfriend's best friend, then betrayed the best friend by ditching him and glides back into his life when she needs his help. He was better off without her. I was mostly sad Spike died because I wanted him to get over his hangup on Julia and find some kind of happiness/new life with Faye.

Ah well. That's what I write fan fic for.
