I am considering (considering) opening a topic for discussion on whether destiel will become canon in the show sometime soon.

What do you think?

It's a good point. I admit to only "hearing" that Jensen had requested no one ask about destiel but I have absolutely no proof on that. There seem to be conflicting reports on what happened at the con and I haven't been able to bring myself to watching that first question.

Watching the introduction it all looks to be in good jest and I am sure it was all part of the atmosphere. I admit to taking it at face value that the request was true, so it was in llight of that Richards comment seem weird to me - mostly the timing of it.

Yeah, I can understand not being about to bring yourself to watch the video. I've been that way with some con videos--they just give you second-hand embarrassment.

When that question was asked it did get pretty uncomfortable in the room. A lot of people groaned in annoyance. Jensen seemed annoyed too. He tried to calm the room and just tried to move on. Though I honestly don't know if Jensen heard the question at all because he seems to have a hard time hearing questions sometimes anyway, but this time everyone's sighs and groans muffled the question even more. He probably thought the question was much worse than whatever it was going to be. He did say "don't ruin it for everyone" so I think he knows based upon that and the crowd's reactions that this issue is something that can make fandom very divided. I just think questions that could be divisive and a hot button issue would be better asked in private or a small group.

The uncomfortableness passed pretty quickly when the next question and answer went on, but I've seen how big it's blown up on Tumblr and such. I'm trying to avoid all of it. I had fun at the con and I'm not going to let the awkwardness affect my memories.
