I love how a picture of sand is so widely understood.

Explain it to me please. Is this a Star Wars thing?

I wonder what these anvil sized hints were for Harmony.

When I read the books I was completely disconnected from the fandom but I always thought they were like brother/sister.

I think they're referring to the HBP interview in which JKR said she felt she had left anvil sized hints for Ron/Hermione. To which Emerson (the interviewer) replied that Harmonians had been delusional. And fandom went boom.

I think it is all in what you think is romantic? I used to be a crazy shipper back in the day. I'm out of the fandom now. But I still like the ship. For me, it was always that I liked the idea of friends to lovers. The whole bickering thing with Ron and Hermione is something I personally really don't like. I always liked the idea of a friendship slowly developing into love over the years. Still do, though I'm no longer judgmental of those who ship other ways and think that the attacks on the author were awful and am fine with canon as it is.

I don't watch SW, and I have no reason to be invested, but somehow the antis irritate me anyway.

(Anonymous) 2018-03-01 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
Spellcheck is your friend.

(Anonymous) 2018-03-01 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
I'm pretty sure this is about SW and I completely agree. I'm neither pro nor anti-Reylo. I have no investment. But I do find the pro-Reylos so annoying.

How many other fandoms currently have more wank than the touring company of the Puppetry of the Penis?

(Anonymous) 2018-03-01 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
I think at that point it's fair to say you're invested.

A truly neutral wank spectator finds both sides equally annoying.

Funny enough, I don't give two craps about any pairing in this fandom (except Han Solo/Leia), but it's the anti-Reylo's that I tend to find irritating. LOL!

(Anonymous) 2018-03-01 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
I find the pro-Reylos annoying, too, but probably because I personally haven't seen much of the antis -I'm not involved in this part of the fandom.

(Anonymous) 2018-03-01 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
I used to find the anti-Reylo's more annoying because they were acting like a simple hero/villain pair was soooo problematic even though there isn't that much of a power dynamic between them since Rey seems to be he's equal in terms of power (although with less experience).

Now I'm finding the pro-Reylo's more annoying because, despite what they say, the ship is not a canon romance. I especially hate how they take innocuous shit like that one SW twitter asking about favorite ships and added "not including reylo" as some kind of acknowledgement of their ship being canon, rather than realizing that the twitter post was merely acknowledging it's the most popular SW ship at the moment.

It's not much fun if you are invested in the fandom. I don't care if Reylo does or doesn't become canon but the vitriol has infected non-Reylo discussion too. I suppose the whole movie was 'Reylo' to some extent, in people either loving or hating it with passion. Both sides use so much incendiary language to rile each other up, so it's ripe for trolls because both sides have had bad interactions that make them trigger-happy to take arguments in bad faith or to just yell at each other. (IME)

I would be happy to go back to my HP days. I never saw a hint of the ship wars. I kept in my own corner and it was much more enjoyable.

Taylor Swift fandom sure is the gift that keeps on giving.

Did you miss the Johnlock Conspiracy?

Personally, I really can't stand the Reylo ship but if people want to ship it, go ahead. I also don't go widely advertise that I hate the ship because I wouldn't want to be associated with the rabid antis. They are just as annoying as the rabid Reylo stans who insist that the ship is 100 % canon now.

I just assume that most people are adults willing to scroll on to the next post rather than fly into a frothy rage because Someone Disagrees on the Internet.

mine was the zutara vs kataaang fights in at:la fandom, i didn't care about either ship so i could enjoy the mud-slinging from afar.

I keep thinking it's going to be suikoden related any time I read Harmonian anything. :/

If you want real drama, take a look at some of the RPF fandoms.

(Anonymous) 2018-03-01 04:32 am (UTC)(link)
I am fine with RPF, but there is almost always a (loud) group of tin-hatters that are conspiracy theorists on par with Flat-Earthers.
