03. I know people probably don't have any idea who I am. (Pokemon/Team Rocket fans from 9-10 years ago, maybe?) Fandom is hard to get honest answers from sometimes... Reading stuff like this makes me very glad that my friends/betas are pretty serious when it comes to good writing and don't hesitate to give me honest crit. I'm very lucky and I feel bad when others don't seem to get the same luck.


10. I have friends who call me "Shads" in real life. It doesn't bother me. I think I like my online name better than my real one.


27. I wouldn't laugh at you. I always loved how, in matters of God/religion that Mulder and Scully switched their usual "skeptic/believer" roles - it not only made for interesting television, but, looking back, I realize that it really was rather cool for the show to portray a somewhat religious person as NOT being a complete idiot-character. As paranoia-filled as it was, The X-Files was great for sparking the idea of "possibilities." Man, it's been a long time since I've watched it, but it used to be my "thing" bigtime... my fandom before I had regular access to the Internet.


50. I don't watch Naruto (I actively avoid it, actually), I have no opinion on the particular pairing, but I really *hate* it when yaoi fans use excuses like that. I've run into people who say they love a particular couple because of the friendship/love between them in a "pure" way and how it's so pure and not about the sex and/or how it's therefore better than het shipping, blah, blah, blah, SLASH IS NOT ALL ABOUT SEX! Blah, blah, blah, I'M NOT INTO THEM FOR THE SEX, yadda, yadda yadda .... then every post they make on a message board/all the talk about over AIM/every fanfic they write/whatever they say regarding the pairing is something ABOUT SEX - some pervy joke, or yakking about hot doujinshi. --- It's all pretty telling to me that "It's not about the sex!" is a complete lie. Now, I'm not judging you specifically, as I'm not in your fandom and I do not know you (maybe you do like your OTP more for the "pure love" and the hot doujinshi is just incidental)... it's just that when yaoi fans go on and on about pure love and great dyamics and crud, then go on and on about "hotness" and porn right after that, it really defeats the "it's not about sex" message completely for me. I kinda nod and mentally say "Yeah, right." (Not that there aren't het shippers the same way, too... but it seems like I've run into it more with yaoi fans).
