Top Ten Tuesday (18): Top Ten NOtps

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and The Bookish.

Valentine's Day is just around the corner and everyone is getting caught by the love bug. But not me. I'm going to be bitter about love for a couple minutes here and tell you about all the couples I cannot STAND together. For those of you who are unaware, you can see the Urban Dictionary definition of NOtp but the gist is summed up in this gif:

So without further ado, here are some couples that got together -- or that people ship together -- and I am like "WHAT NOOOOOOO!!!" Be warned that some of these might be TV/movie/book spoilers!

1. EVERYONE from MISFITS (E4 TV Show)

OMG don't even get me STARTED on this one. MISFITS was EASILY one of my favourite TV shows for the first couple of series. And then the writers decided to eff up ALL THE PAIRINGS. People who should have been endgame ended up with OTHER PEOPLE and for what?? Better story telling?? Not even in your wildest dreams. How can you tell me that Simon and Alisha were better than Curtis and Alisha? NOPE. AND FUCK, NATHAN AND KELLY WERE THE BOMB DOT COM. I honestly got so mad at how the story progressed (and not just the pairings) that I stopped watching after the third series. I just couldn't handle it. It was beyond stupid.

2. EREN x MIKASA from ATTACK ON TITAN

I do not get it. I DO NOT GET IT. Mikasa and Eren are NOT good for one another in a romantic sense. AT ALL. Eren needs someone to push him to be better, not enable him to do whatever he wants and then clean up his mess. And MIKASA BABY YOU CAN DO SO MUCH BETTER. They just need to stay and remain friends and that's that. 

3. CAPTAIN SWAN from ONCE UPON A TIME

I see the appeal, I do agree that Colin is hot AF, but I am NOT a fan of killing off one love interest just so a ship can sail. So this one was doomed before it even started for me. OuaT went downhill for me once they killed off Neil and I have had zero interest in picking it back up, even with all the good looking people on their roster.

4. TED x ROBIN from HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER

There were some things that HIMYM got really right. And then there are some things they got really wrong. Ending the series with Ted and Robin together was the BIGGEST MISTAKE IN TELEVISION HISTORY, imo. There are some couples you root for all along and hope they get together, even when they are with other people, but this was NOT ONE OF THOSE CASES. And, again, I am NOT A FAN OF KILLING OFF ONE LOVE INTEREST JUST SO A SHIP CAN SAIL. Fucking HIMYM. It has no rewatchable qualities now. I used to live for that show. Fuck HIMYM.

5. STILES x MALIA from TEEN WOLF

I stopped watching the show when Stiles and Malia got together. I could NOT HANDLE IT. And the whole sex thing? DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED. I ship Stiles with literally everyone else on the show but I could NOT get there with Malia. She was a cheap replacement for Allison and Malia deserved better character development than being brought in as Stiles' love interest. I hear they aren't together anymore so I bet she gets killed off soon. Also, the queerbaiting on TW is incredible and I cannot get there anymore. I will continue to rewatch Seasons 1-3 and that will be that.

6. SANSA x THE HOUND from A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE

I mostly see this with the TV show watchers, but still. All I have to say to you people who ship this is WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU.

7. BELLAMY BLAKE x RAVEN REYES from THE 100 (TV show, not the book)

JUST GOD NO. They would be BAMF friends but they do not need romance to make their relationship AMAZING. PLEASE DEAR GOD DO NOT LET THIS EVER HAPPEN. They can be FWB for all I care but there is no way in hell that they would be a good couple. NOPE NOPE NOPE.

8. SHUU TSUKIYAMA x KEN KANEKI from TOKYO GHOUL

Just no. Like Tsukiyama literally wants to eat Kaneki. And not in a loving way but in a cannibal way. THAT'S NOT LOVE PEOPLE. DON'T LET PEOPLE EAT YOU. I actually just don't understand. Like is it because of the fact that he wants to eat him? Because like no thank you. I would rather my romance be biting free.

9. CALYPSO x LEO from THE HEROES OF OLYMPUS

THIS STILL MAKES ME SO MAD. It's not even so much the ship that infuriates me as much as the actions by the two characters to be together. Like UGH. LEO ACTED LIKE SUCH AN ASS. I can't handle this. I also don't like that in this story everyone got paired off with someone at the end. Like that was a bit much. Real life isn't like that friends.

10. NATASHA ROMANOV x BRUCE BANNER from the MARVEL CINEMATIC UNIVERSE

I think Joss Whedon does some good things (sometimes) but THIS WAS NOT ONE OF THEM. WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK WAS HE THINKING PUTTING BRUCE AND NATASHA TOGETHER. Like it makes zero sense and is literally thrown in to give Natasha a love interest. Why does she even need a love interest. She is a perfect character all on her own. And the travesty that is Clint with a family. UGH AGE OF ULTRON IS JUST NOT A GOOD MOVIE.
