F!S Anon Meme (the ??th!)


Secrets, rants, opinions, anything you want to say about your fandom or a fandom or fandom in general, do it here! Anonymously, of course. Get it all off your chest.

Some ground rules:
1. Going anon is encouraged but not absolutely required.
2. No autoplaying/autolooping embeds, or embeds that cover/stretch the screen.
3. No dropping personal info or IRL contact info, etc.

That's about it, though!

I'll be linking some general/general-fandom threads I see so people don't repost new threads with the same stuff. If you want me to link your thread up here, drop a link in the first comment!



General:
Halloween costumes

Fandom-general:
Porn comics
F/F recs
Guilty pleasures

Fandom-specific:
Girl Meets World

Secrets about stuff I'm familiar with, but I get that's a crapshoot. I don't know about your obscure British animal book from the 70's!

I'd like more secrets about non American/British/Japanese media.

We have an international user base here, I'm sure they have some interesting media in their countries.

Golden Girls secrets! Even if it's an old show, I'm curious how the new generation of fans feel about the continuity errors, least favorite/favorite episodes or certain characters (I am not a Blanche fan at all).

I feel like I'm the only teenage Golden Girls fan!!! (/;;;n;;;)/
:(( Most of my peers are always like "ew that's old, or ew, it's not trendy therefore nobody cares" and I'm like shut the fuck up the things they make today are literal garbage and I feel robbed on an intellectual/spiritual level by today's creators. 。゜(`Д´)゜。

...I found a teenager on fs! (Sorry, there was consensus a couple weeks ago that there wasn't. Hi, glad there's young blood!)

My current fandoms, though I'm about the only one who cares about those.

Positive secrets as well. Cute/silly stuff or secrets with an oddball sense of humor.

Secrets that are about the fandom, not a stealth blogpost about the OP's wangsty life. If you want people to give you feels for your booboos, go to the GC for it.

And would it kill you to find a picture of the show too? All text secrets are subpar.

But fandom is about the feels! I love angsty and heartbreaking (fandom) secrets.

General comments. The second page of f!s where people talk about their day to day happenings and other fun things.

More wrestling secrets. We can never have enough wrestling secrets.

Positive secrets! Happy secrets! Secrets about how fandom has made someone's life better.

See, quite a few people say this about positive secrets, but I've done some admittedly informal observing and positive secrets NEVER get the amount of comments that negative ones do. When you make a secret, your response is usually a few nice comments and a whole lot of *cricket noises*. IMO, people say they want positive secrets, but they respond more to the wanky ones. Actions speak louder than words.

But I think just reading some of those positive secrets makes peoples' days a little brighter. Perhaps they should respond to them more actively, but I suspect the lack of response doesn't map out to lack of interest.

That's possible, but I think if people want secrets to uplift their day, then they should understand that if they lurk, reap the benefit and don't leave a comment to indicate that they enjoyed the secret, this might be a motivating factor behind why people don't bother to make positive secrets.

Shippy secrets for rarepairs, so lonely shippers have a chance to meet a few others.
Also, light hearted silly stuff!

Cute/happy secrets about people actually having fun with fandom, and not at others' expense.

Secrets that aren't small, with small text. If you're making a text secret, there's no excuse not to make it large enough to be legible. If your image is too small FIND A LARGER IMAGE. It ain't rocket science, but my god some people here just don't get it. I'm not asking for a gorgeous, artisan-crafted secret with amazing photoshop skills, just make it big enough where I don't have to squint at it to read it.
