"Fiction/Fantasy genre where a princess runs away from home because she doesn't want to get married and wants adventure. She travels with a gypsy, and finds out gypsies are immortal beings cursed to wander for hundreds of years. Thank you!"
I actually said that it all sounds terrible, which is very much not the case with most of my snarky commentary about that subreddit.
Now, half the time when I tell people "You should avoid the use of the word gypsy, it's frequently regarded as a racial slur" I get a bazillion upvotes and the other half the time I get a bazillion downvotes, and I have thus far found no way of predicting which will happen. I guess I'll just have to watch and see!
