Transcript by OP
Instead it's all middle aged ladies with kids who got into fandom within the past year. So they're total babyfans, but think they're experts and so mature.
Pairings are canon or they're crack, writing anything with a non-canon "crack ship" makes it an AU, drabbles are supposed to be 10k plus words and novellas are anything under 500 words, male/female pairings are slash because look there's a slash in it, and Dr. Who is the official spelling and also his name is Who, duh.
If I try to say anything about how that's not really how most mainstream fandom defines things I get dogpiled and mocked. And anyway fandom words aren't real words so they can define them however they want.
I just want to hang out with people who remember geocities and mailing lists, the rise and fall of livejournal, that there has always been epic wank as long as fandom has existed, and that meta and shipping can coexist peacefully.
I feel like everything's been taken over by babyfans, and I feel like you can't complain about them without sounding like an elitist jerk gatekeeper. I like new fans, I just wish there was a place for us older fans too.
