this post was too long to be funny on Twitter but it's probs too short for a DW post, sorry
I just find this conversation obscurely amusing, IDK why, perhaps it's the idea of Spotted Kiwi fandom.
I mean so like, obviously everyone ships Greater/Lesser (usually known as Little, according to Wiki, but Lesser sounds so much nicer). Angst in the fandom is all about how Lesser just can't survive the predation on the mainland! Wank in the fandom is all about how come nobody ever writes Lesser/Brown when they're obviously the closest. Rowi has waif fu. Haast and Southern Tokoeka are a smug married couple. etc.
Moi: hey the phrase "lesser spotted kiwi fandom" is clear, right? Where it's talking about rare, nz, fandoms? & can only be hyphenated "lesser-spotted kiwi fandom"?
seemsforever: CORRECT as far as i'm concerned.
seemsforever: ps. a spotted kiwi is a thing, right? if you hyphenated it you'd have a smaller group of fans of the spotted kiwi.
seemsforever: .. as opposed to the other, huger, fandom of which spotted kiwi are the subject. RAD
