141. God so do I. And I think, I hope, that I've found him, (except with no abuse (physically we both insult each other lovely.)

168. You wouldn't believe how many times I've worried about that too.

I'm deeply sorry that someone ruined FullMetal Alchemist for you.

Two prior fandoms of mine are almost untouchable or 'tainted' by negative actions of very specific friends; so in that way I feel I can sympathize.




Hopefully you'll find a new safe-haven for your passions and interests.

151. Watch Pushing Daisies. Trust me on this one.

My eyes went so wide when I saw on IMDB that he's the narrator. So much awesomeness! This is what I get for not watching very much TV.

101. He was pretty damn great. It was fascinating watching his decline, whereas The Joker was just crazy.

106. Don't hold your breath. :)

not!secret 1: My loss of faith in humanity. Let me show u it.

not!secret 2: I may not think the same, but I understand why you would.

101. I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN. X_X

136. …………………D:

145. Yours makes more sense. >>

146. OH MY GOD I LOVE MALxSIMON. :DD
What's the other ship you're talking about? -intrigued-

153. …I know what you mean. I have a character exactly like that. ><

163. I really should read the book. If I had before I saw the movie, I'd probably feel the same way, right down to the pretty colors and CB voice. ;D

176. You win the internet.

146!

101. You shouldn't feel guilty. If you like him better, it's not like you can do anything about it! :D I liked them equally. <3 Harvey.

119. Oh, [livejournal.com profile] ihasatardis, I do so love you.

122. You know, I haven't met anyone in DW fandom who acts like a douchebag. Maybe it's just me and my little corner. *shrugs* I tend to think that the jerks are the loudest ones, anyways.

161. ...How have I never seen this before!? O_O It's so obvious.

163. I'll always like it because I saw it before I read the book, but yeah, I basically watch it for Christian's voice, too. Sigh.

177. Hee, River. That would be fun.

119. It's like the freakin' Traken Union. People are just nice to each other. Any time I think there's going to be drama, it mutates into lulz.

122. I tend to be pretty criticial of Who fandom, but the truth is, there are only a few genuine assholes around. The rest of the drama is caused by peeps overreacting and worrying too much about how others see them and blundering and generally being fallible and human. :-)

177. Ood vs River Tam kill-with-brain competition! WHO WILL WIN?

125. Oh man. Especially the laugh <3~! *would totally hit it too*
148. I wish fandom wasn't so judgemental. Art is art imo, even if it turns out to be bad art, its still *art*!
159. Ahahahaha I'd watch the hell out of this <3

153. I can't slash him because it seems like a terrible waste of a perfectly good smutty fantasy. I don't write fic, but if I did? Total self-insert MarySue PWP, baby.

159. In the sadly unlikely event this ever came to pass? I'd become the most obnoxiously fervent Doctor Who fangirl ever. And I don't give two shits for the show right now. I can just see Ramsay!Doctor calling someone a "fucking donkey" right now.

165. Oh, I just know they're out there. I've encountered a few in my time who were pretty fucking scary, to the point where I could easliy see them lopping off authors' extremities if the opportunity presented itself.

176. ROFL.

[identity profile] leli-5.livejournal.com 2008-08-04 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
A revitalization of book fandoms would be good... but how about an overall higher standard with regards to grammar, syntax and spelling in fanfic as well? Honestly, the joy of reading an otherwise great fanfic can be completely destroyed if the author doesn't know the difference between there, their and they're (or much and many, for that matter).

Literacy in life and fandom ftw?

This secret and the replies to it are making me really glad I saw the movie first. It's always easier for me to love both versions that way.

[identity profile] pavonine.livejournal.com 2008-08-04 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
101. Don't feel so guilty. His performance was great and is being overlooked by many, which sucks but is understandable given the circumstances.

103. Heh, true. I also tend to say "bodka" now instead of vodka. Y'know. For gits and shiggles.

107. You can't write for your OTP on the side? Stop caving in to external pressure or start writing for yourself first.

112. "Introverted freaks [. . .] destruction" actually describes a good part of fandom. Some people really HAVEN'T thought about the concepts in The Dark Knight, and those people usually don't crawl around in fandom too often.

118. This article seems a little quick to generalize, no? I can speak for myself, so I will: I think I know the difference between good writing on the Internets and bad, and I tend to gravitate towards the good. I've read novel-length fanfic and learned so much from it--about writing, about relationships, about human emotions and how complex everything is. Nadia in the article cannot be used to represent everyone who reads fic. It's a disgrace to those who read and write better work.

Bah. Fuck negative opinions of fanfiction. Clearly they read the wrong fic. While your secret and the article has a point, definitely, it leaves those of us who don't read badfic (I'm certainly not the only one) in the cold.

135. Seriously? HP fandom is slowing down?

... aw. I kind of thought it'd be around forever.

139. Replace the guest with Stephen and yes. Please. I want at least one crossover episode, and I'm not talking Midterm Midtacular (though that was quite fun). They don't even do tosses anymore...

148. I like them if they're especially horrible. It's like loving a trainwreck--something about how horrible it is, and I'm just like wow, really? You're THIS bad? MOAR!!

158. You mean there's no crackfic in a fandom where the villain was not just A joker, but THE Joker?

BLASPHEMY.

165. That was a really good movie, though. WATCH IT. Skip that scene if you must.

167. I have that shirt Zachary is wearing.

169. Me too.

176. So doing that for the next chapter, which I still have to read!

Well, for a while, maybe.

118 OP

(Anonymous) 2008-08-04 06:25 am (UTC)(link)
I actually didn't take the article to be generalizing-- it just seemed to me to represent a disturbing trend in, if not the majority (and certainly not all) then at least a significant portion of fandom. Honestly, the number of well-phrased and intelligent responses I've seen to the secret so far have done a lot to reassure me. (Three cheers for good fic; may the lost and grammarless find it!)
ext_73923: (be consoled by your fear)

[identity profile] amei.livejournal.com 2008-08-04 01:18 am (UTC)(link)
Fails for implying P3 is actually representative of the Megaten series.

If you're going to bitch about a game, bawww about that, and don't include the rest of the series, (which I'm assuming you haven't played).

God, why is there not more love for this secret? Surely OP and I are not the only ones.

Seriously, OP, way to read my mind. I get distracted at work thinking about him, too. And every time I go to the bank I think, "Maybe this time..."

Yeah, I like the idea of him torturing you to death too.

150- Me too :[ I'm so sad it's all over.

152- Um, ditto! Totally disappointed. It got so much hype that I nearly drove my family crazy looking for a copy andddd then I got it just to get a Dating Sim with one dungeon*

*(Speculation as I never beat the game)
