I don't really see the problem, unless they are relatively recent historical people.

I have loads of favorite historical figures. I love all the crazy Roman emperors, Genghis Khan, etc. One of my all time favorites is Alexander the Great, and modern media tends to give him the hero cut, but arguably he was also a half-crazy bully who slaughtered a lot of people and had a temper. What d'ya do. I just can appreciate charisma in a historical figure, no matter how batshit they are!

Image: A publicity picture of Malcolm Reed (Dominic Keating) from Star Trek: Enterprise.

Text: Malcolm was my favorite character in Enterprise from the start. So I was annoyed that he got so few "solo" episodes; he deserved more attention than that.

Then I found the fandom, and discovered he's the most popular character...but only because he's the fandom bicycle.

Now I feel like an ungrateful hypocrite for simultaneously feeling like he didn't get enough love and not enjoying the love he DOES get.

(And yes, I would tap that like a maple tree.)

The reason I hate popular pairings is that I'm jealous that nothing I ship has ever been that popular.

I started reading these series fairly recently, after watching people on Tumblr squeal about MTMTE for months. I actually like them okay so far, but I’m having a very hard time getting attached to the characters of MTMTE because I know what terrible things happen to them. Nobody’s talking about the plot developments in RID, so I can get attached to the characters without knowing what happens down the road. I’m actually liking it better because it’s less popular. S!B: This sounds incredibly hipstery.

When I was young and stupid about genetics, I assumed she was adopted. It seemed strange that the family never talked about it.

(Sorry, Sondra! You seemed nice but I also thought you were the most boring Huxtable.)

I went back to check out an old fandom of mine and was super hyped to see it wasn't dead!!

- Too bad all the fanfic and meta that's written now is super dull and mediocre and it doesn’t seem likely to change since all current authors seem to be self-congratulating, circle-jerk BFFs...
I know this is petty and I feel ungrateful. :(

B!S It’s just weird to me when old fanfic is better than new stuff...

(Pictures of Wesley Crusher, Legolas and Markiplier)
Sometimes I wonder what male actors/celebrities/internet personalities would think if they knew that I, a dude, have crushed on them or their characters. Same goes for authors if I happen to crush on a male character of theirs.

(I guess I want validation that this is okay and they would not be bothered (or at least feel any differently than towards female fans))

Whenever I see human!Smaug mentioned in fic or discussion, I always imagine him looking like Darkness in Legend. (Not all that human, I know, but even so.) Sorry, Benny, but no matter how expressly it's Cumber!Smaug people are going for, it just doesn't work for me.

I prefer playing as mages because they usually get robes.
Unlimited cosmical powers? Cool, I guess.
Dudes in skirts? Sign me up.

Britpicking and ameripicking fanfics weirds me out with its sheer arrogance...

... because it always implies that actual translations must be beyond inferior then.

[Criminal Minds/Law and Order: SVU]

[(Anonymous)]

I didn't see any of that. I don't think she was forgiven for what happened and I didn't see her prejudices getting in the way except for the last 2 episodes which were so OOC to everything we'd seen before.

She did bond with the others. She and Morgan even vacationed together.

I mean, I can totally understand not liking her. The acting isn't very good, and personal taste and all that. She's not my favorite either but she's not bad.

I definitely don't see parallels between her and Eliot. I haven't watched SUV in years but my main recollection of him was police brutality, etc. She sometimes let her disgust with people show but she did a good job. They seem like two different kinds of characters to me.

I think it is necessary to critically examine the media we consume, but this fandom makes me think that there are a lot of people who just want to be angry

I have been meaning to read all of the Romantically Apocalyptic comics forever. I get how hard it is to stay reading them. I used to read two religiously back in the day. But, now I can't even remember what they are called.

DA fandom must be particularly bad since we hear about it all the time, but frankly I've felt that way about a lot people on a certain website. So much manufactured outrage.
