Shippy = what my fanfics are most decidedly not.

[Reply #5 on:]

To each his own.

[Reply #6 on:]

Don't get me wrong.  I agree that Fry and Leela belong together.  I just can't think of any fresh, original Fry/Leela story ideas, and I'd rather not contribute to the already crowded Fry/Leela genre unless I can bring something new to the table.  There are already enough people writing tiny songfics where Fry proposes to Leela, Leela proposes to Fry, etc., etc., etc.

[Reply #7 on:]

I can see your point, but the "genre", as it were, is just as crammed with readers as it is with authors. And don't get me wrong either - I like non-shippy fic as much as shiptacular shiptravaganzas.

I know there are threads on this subject, but I’ll be hanged if I can find one.
Rather than my needlessly soaking up bandwidth, may I suggest you look here?

I totally agree with the F and L ship and the K&A ship.

What other Ships are there, though.  Zap and Leela?  haha :P I love all those

I can't believe I missed this thread! And SpaceCase beat me to it!

(In no particular order)

Zap and Kif
Farnsworth and Cubert
Hermes and Dwight
Cubert and Dwight
Farnsworth and Hermes (a’la BSNBAoTV and TRoAE)
Farnsworth and Wernstrom... WERNSTROM…
Leela and Amy (a’la BH)

Morbo and Linda

Ah…hm... That’s about where my notes run out.

That’s a rarity alright; you might want to mark your calendar. 
Although I don’t consider posting here a competition…

Fry/Woman from the bus stop

Plus more I can't think of right now. Note that although some of these didn't happen, some people think they should of and therefore support that ship.

No, I didn’t forget them; I listed the ‘ships’ I though ripe for development (or at least exploration) in the movies.
In the character combinations you list the ‘ship’ is not at issue: That is, there is no ‘ship’ to speak of, the ‘ship’ has been resolved, or the ‘ship’ was a one-episode joke.
I have just one question:
 

...Woman from the bus stop...

Who? 

I have a pretty good recall of Futurama, but I’m drawing a blank there...

[Reply #14 on:]

The only woman from a bus stop that I can think of is Petunia from PYHOMS - the 'well-travelled woman' that Bender fixed Fry up with.

Thank you Ralph.
We only saw Petunia in the resturaunt.
We later find out she, and everyone else Bender rounded-up, were in the bus station.
Was there another woman Fry might've met at a bus stop?

Does the word "shipper" supposed to be short for "relationship?"  That's what I've heard. 

[Reply #19 on:]

You have heard correctly.
