You know, that's actually the only response that's made me think.

The secret was made out of exasperation towards people posting seventy five secrets that say things like "zomg, I hate companion X" or "I would so do the Joker, LOL Y AM I SO STRANGE?" And things that aren't secrets at all, but rather the general opinion of everyone. :/


Though you do make a good point, I feel like there's a difference between Fandom Secrets and Fandom Feelings-And-Ideas-That-Are-Generally-Accepted.

Well, it bugs me when things like "Donna's fate made me cry more than Doomsday, I must be a freak!" kept getting posted, because good common sense will say "um...right, She's only the most universally liked companion who got written off in the most tragic way possible..." got posted. Anything that simple (that can be replicated by replacing a few nouns with other names) that ends with "I'm so weird!" annoys me.

The "I would so do the Joker" secrets I can roll with a bit because, while it's generally accepted in fandom, real-world-sense would say otherwise. I mean, hot as Heath is, especially in that role, it's still a psychopathic, maniacal homicidal clown who slices people's faces open, tortures them, feels no remorse, and as the actor himself said, has no human feeling left to him. On the surface, that's a pretty weird choice in the "things I would do" category. Especially if a poster was someone who maybe went for the hero or the nice guys usually (main reason I haven't made such a secret--I've known about my favouritism for the psychos since Xelloss).

But while I agree with your last statement, I guess it's worth remembering that what seems like a generally accepted feeling to one person might not be to another.

Of course, there are folks just trying to get a shout out. But I can't say I mind that too much either--that's how all the Six-fans found each other a few months back.
