Why do I hate that portmanteau so much less than Johnlock? I cannot explain this.
I wonder that sometimes, myself. There are a few pairing portmanteaus that I'm cool with (McShep, Boostle, Mystrade), and the rest mostly make me want to punch things, but I can't usually articulate why. Oh, and then there's MorMor (Jim Moriarty/Sebastian Moran for those who don't know), which I love because it's so cute and fluffy sounding, and that's hilariously inappropriate for the pairing.
