MordeTwi is not ridiculous, let's be real. IMO, people just don't realize or make sense of how MordeTwi could work theoretically, and are too quick to dismiss it as Crack.

again, I'm not saying that it's a bad thing. but like, in concept, these ideas are inherently ridiculous, they may work in practice but, in theory you gotta understand where people on the outside are coming from. and not take stuff so seriously or so personally.

like, if I told you about a mid-2000s era Dragon Ball Z-inspired NewGrounds sprite animation series that was a crossover between Mario and Sonic where the Sonic characters have a gritty dark backstory, like-- that's kind of a far-fetched concept, and I'd understand assuming that it's going to be totally unwatchable garbage rather than it being better than all of its main inspirations in several aspects.

I mean like, character-wise, they might like or befriend each other at the very least. Because, IMO, that's usually really the only metric that defines a ship being "crack" or not by most, and that also applies to canon/non-crossover pairings.

But my point wasn't that "MordeTwi is not Crack", but that it wasn't a Joke Ship to begin with - which I feel like was otherwise the impression from the wiki.
I didn't mean to take it personally though.
