This stupid fanon is dying off? HOORAY! ABOUT BLOODY TIME!

It is still around just not as popular. I doubt it will ever fall off.

Also, don't like, don't read?

It already did its damage though.

lol I have the opposite problem. I like Wade/Peter but a lot of it is Superfamily stuff (or at least has an undercurrent of Stony even if it's not technically Superfamily) and that's an automatic back-button for me.

I definitely don't see nearly as much Superfamily as I used to, though. It seems like Stony in general really dropped off after TWS came out. Sorry you missed out on the fun, OP. :(

Why is it called Superfamily?

Because it's a family of superheroes? It's a fandom term, kind of like Severitus or other fic trope terms. Basically it's Steve/Tony as Peter Parker's parents/guardians.

A lot of them (maybe most, idk) focus on Peter, and he's often shipped with Deadpool.

I'm really confused by this picture. I mean modern credit cards first came into being in the 1950s, yes, but their predecessors "charge plates" and "charge coins" etc existed since the later 19th century and continued to be used till the 1960s. Credit as a concept has existed for thousands of years. There's no reason that credit cards would be something Steve would find mind-blowing.

I think it is a joke.

well obviously, but it is a joke that makes no sense.

(Anonymous) 2018-01-17 07:08 am (UTC)(link)
A lot of the "Steve doesn't understand technology" jokes in fandom don't make sense. Some of it makes it sound like Steve came from the stone age, others act like Steve is actually their grandpa who refuses to learn about cellphones when he's shown to have a quick grasp on things even when he doesn't fully understand everything.

(Anonymous) 2018-01-17 09:06 pm (UTC)(link)
I think it comes down to not knowing and not bothering to find out (at least not beyond the question of "when did credit cards first start being used?") especially when it might ruin an idea they think is cute. It's the flip side of representing past technology as too advanced or culture as too progressive, e.g. a fic that takes place in 1995 and everyone has a cell phone - yes, they existed, and yes, some non-rich people had them, but they weren't ubiquitous like they are now, you couldn't use them to access the internet, and texting was barely a thing.

I'm okay with Spideypool from the comics, their ages and life experience are better aligned, but when it comes to Spideypool in the MCU I get so turned off and grossed out. But I never understood why anybody thought MCU!Steve AND Tony would legit two-daddy Peter and be down with him hooking up with Wade? It's not even the constantly rotting Wade-body I'm grossed out by, it's everything else.
