106. ME TOO. My reaction exactly - thinking how awful I'd feel if it were my photo, and they didn't HAVE to publish that, did they?!

...Right up until you hit the point where you adore that celeb so much that they could have noodles hanging from their mouth, sauce on their face, and their eyes rolled back into their skull so you can see the whites of their eyeballs, and you still think they look like a MILLION bucks.

Or maybe that's just me. Do everybody else's photo collections get less and less picky over time?

123. Again, me too. Would LOVE to know.

127. No, no oops! So nobody made it quite as accessible for you before. This (whatever it is) made you appreciate it more. How is that a bad thing?

People sometimes criticize when you learn more about a story's plot/themes/characters/whatever from something other than the original. Those people are twits. There would be no point to critical analysis if everyone got the exact same thing out of the source material.

And if you haven't before been given the skills to completely master the source material on the first go-round, there's nothing that says you can't supplement your understanding with something else and then go back to the source for a new look.

Yeah, I'm taking this SRSLY. I mean, that's why there's children's versions of the classics. You can follow the more complex source material later on if you learn the basic gist of the story early. It's rehearsal for the real thing. Rehearsal is NEVER a bad thing.

134. That's TERRIBLE. I'm genuinely sorry.

138. I can kinda sympathize. When actors I like have medical issues I get really nervous about breaking news about them.

Personally, I stopped watching House (at least for a while) because his character means so much to me that watching him be hurt over and over was starting to make me mildly depressed on a day-to-day basis. If something happened to his character, I can't even describe how upset I'd be.

147. I recall reading a study done a few years ago that showed that our fantasies about celebrities (within reason) have the same emotional benefits as children's imaginary friends. It kinda made me feel dorky to hear that - oh great, I still have imaginary friends!...but then, so does EVERYBODY else.

Including (hilariously), most smaller celebrities. Which is obvious if you read enough interviews and see people admit to their own fantasies about people THEY consider celebrities.

(I sometimes wonder if a small part of the reason why big, big celebrities have this tendency to go STARK RAVING NUTS when they hit it really big is that they no longer have that outlet. Really, who is Tom Cruise gonna fantasize about?)

186. I'm...honestly confused by this secret. Er, what?

"So much more worthy of praise," in what way, exactly? I mean, your fellow fans aren't comparing this celeb to each other, are they? "Wow, [friendperson], you're just so uncool compared to [David Tennant/one of those SPN boys/Hugh Laurie/Launchpad]." I'm doubting it, because then they wouldn't be nice, right?

So why does that one person get so much praise? I don't know, maybe because they DID something that MEANT something to lots and lots and lots of people...?

If your friends are worthy of praise, then people will praise them! Probably not so many, but that's because they haven't reached so many people. Math. Not a calculation of WORTH, just NUMBERS.

Not!fandom Um, just quit lj if you hate it that damn much.

147: That is an interesting point. It's a way to mentally escape normal life.
