Chelsea (theycallmebookworm) | 1955 comments Have you ever heard somebody mention 'shipping' and no I don't mean shipping products or produce. I mean tumblr/fandom 'shipping'.
I have had people (my friends!) look at me strangely when I talked about 'shipping'.

For those who don't know what 'shipping' is I've "taken a page out of Jenny's book":


Urban Dictionary -

This is most often used on tumblr by fandoms. Fandoms will ship everything and anything. Shipping comes from the word relationSHIP. Basically it is when you want a fictional character, real-life person, or cartoon people to be together. People often write fanfictions about their favorite ship, called their OTP. (One true pair)

e.g.
Person 1: Wow I totally ship michellie!!
Person 2: OH MY GOD NO I SHIP DELLIE!!
Person 3: Wait how can you ship a person isn't that illegal or something?
Person 2: No I want them as a couple. It's called Shipping.



Personally I ship. Not hardcore, I don't ship everybody and anybody. I ship my favourite pairs, romances etc. (Go Hinny!) *Harry and Ginny <3*

So anyways, do you/will you now ship?

Quinn (nerdperson) | 10 comments I ship couples that i think work very well together. When i first got into Twilight i was a hardcore shipper but now i've kind of mellowed out.

Chelsea (theycallmebookworm) | 1955 comments Harry Styles and Taylor Swift (Blehhhhh) No thanks. He dated somebody who was 30 ... or something. Harry does NOT deserve Taylor!
