I know that's got to be the case with at least some people. I did it once myself, for a fic I'd never even finished reading. Now I'd read other stories by the author before and loved them, and this story was hailed almost universally as her best work and an iconic fic for the pairing in question, so I felt reasonably sure I wasn't reccing a lemon or anything. I'd recently gotten "in" with that BNF and her circle, and wanted to earn points with them.

...but it came back to bite me in the ass anyway, when I later wrote a story for the same pairing that ended up having a similar theme to that fic. People were convinced it was meant as a tribute, and I couldn't exactly protest that I hadn't even known the famous fic even used that theme due to having never really read it.

Don't lie for popularity, kids. Irony's a bitch.
