User blog comment:MetalShadow272/Sonamy & Sonally: Why Do People Care?/@comment-1669199-20110609042250

I say people care because they like to believe that with fictional characters they'll have a chance to prove themselves "knowledgable" about how actual relationships work, and just to find a way to prove themselves right about something. And Sonic character pairings is a breeding ground for these kinds of people.
