Seriously, you give it a rest too.

I disagree with this secret, but the picture is perfect.

The cat looks like someone crossed Mr. Burns with a fruit bat.

It depends on your fandom though. If you're into a lot of older fandoms then ffnet is generally going to have more for you to look at so in that case people 'prefer' ffnet.

I like and use both.

I bet my left foot that Secret 7 and this secret are the same person.

I am the person who posted this to the secret-maker's thread, and I am definitely not responsible for #7. However, #7 did directly inspire this secret, in that I read #7 and reflexively thought, "How can anyone prefer FF.net--where it is perpetually 2004 and everyone is perpetually seventeen--to AO3, which literally won a Hugo for how great it is?" I then reflected that I have seen people on reddit professing to prefer FFN to AO3 before, and that whenever I encounter someone expressing that opinion, I have the same reaction, and so I submitted a secret on the subject.

(Thank you, secret maker!)

Damn it...

Do you prefer sock or no sock?

(Anonymous) 2022-07-22 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
Hahaha! I stared at this comment for a straight thirty seconds like, "....sock? Am I being insulted somehow?"

Hey, does anybody remember toe socks? There were hot for like six months in the early 00s and I literally forgot they existed until just now (because for some reason my brain decided to imagine a severed foot in a toe sock, because it hates me).

(Anonymous) 2022-07-23 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
They were hot for ten minutes in the 70s, too. And also uncomfortable.

Are there any other websites you get overly defensive over too? Just so we know which triggers to avoid around you. Or do you just work out of spiting other people's opinions in general? The other anon might have different preferences, but YATA for mocking them for it.

what a bold choice of comment to make while calling someone else an asshole

(Anonymous) 2022-07-22 02:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Hi, no punctuation Troll. Long time.

As was clearly explained to you in the GC, OP isn't being spiteful or defensive. You are.

My biggest problem with FFnet is that as far as I can tell, it doesn’t have a way of distinguishing complete vs. incomplete fics.

(Anonymous) 2022-07-21 11:56 pm (UTC)(link)
It does! The problem is that it was a feature introduced late so a lot of older fic won't be marked complete as that would require their authors going back and marking them as such.

(Anonymous) 2022-07-22 03:46 am (UTC)(link)
NA
I didn’t know this! I am going to try to log into my account and mark all my old stuff there. I think I only have a handful there that escaped the adult content culling and for a couple years I exclusively posted on LJ until I got my invite code for AO3.

(Anonymous) 2022-07-22 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
I just love that this secret is right after the one hating on AO3.

(Anonymous) 2022-07-22 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
Case is an arteest. :)

I thought it was the funniest thing. Talk about perfect comedic timing!

(Anonymous) 2022-07-22 02:12 pm (UTC)(link)
When people prefer FF.net or Wattpad I assume they are either antis or 17 or want to bully people in comments and are mad that authors can delete or screen comments on their fics. This isn't fair, there are tons of fandoms that are more active on other sites (probably?) and even more old stuff that wasn't transferred over. It's just so ugly! And inconvenient to search and read! And it doesn't let me build my own skins! Wah!

People are allowed to like things I don't. People are allowed to like things I don't. People are allowed to like things I don't. If I say it enough I'll even believe it some day.

+100 to your first paragraph.

People are allowed to like things I don't.
I am allowed to think they have bad taste and/or poor judgement.
They are allowed to think I'm a dick.
I am allowed to still think they have bad taste and/or poor judgement.
