Not just a close-up, but given how close he's hugging the skyscraper it's probably all squished up against the glass and making a moist, rubbery rrrrbbb brrrrbb brrrbbb noise, too!

I don't mind your *talking* about your favorite YouTube channels on fandom secrets, but if you're really posting about them to try to promote them, that seems kind of inappropriate to me.

Ugh I just straight up didn't enjoy a lot of the last attempt at bringing it back, and like, the Bender's Big Score etc, just all fell flat for me. I don't even want to watch whatever this is.

I mean, a gorilla's dick is proportionally small, and when not erect, the fur hides it well enough. Maybe it's easy to ignore as long as he's not, you know, excited.

I'm old, but yeah, this was definitely a thing. There was a mini furore in one of my early small fandoms because a fanfic author humble bragged about chatting with adult children of the creator, who were now in charge of the canon work(s) themselves. She'd sent them links to her own (egregiously pretentious) fic and a few others to show them just how awesome fanfic was and how they should totally adapt these fics and make them canon, stuff like that. Then she was really taken aback by wiser fen who said PLEASE DON'T DO THAT, because back in the day it only took one DMCA request for FFnet to deep-six a fandom off the archives. AO3 wasn't a thing yet.

She threw a tantrum about all the awful meanies who were picking on her and how dare we imply she might be violating copyright law with her fanfic because gosh she'd never dream of such a thing and [insert lots of blubbering and whining]. Not epic enough for fandom wank, but amusing.

Not naming the fandom in case she's still around. She wasn't malicious, just kind of dim. Hopefully she's gotten smarter and more mature since then.

NGL, I've been thinking of doing the same thing but in the end I'm just too lazy to actually do it. Props for going through with it.

Eh. Lots of people make secrets about fandoms they enjoy and one of their hopes is to find other people who enjoy them or interest other people. I think it's fine.

But was it wet because you put him in a submarine?

DA I don't know; he seemed to be enjoying himself. Maybe he thought the Empire State Building was a giant sex toy.

What I remember is that the media initially seemed to think it could shame people out of writing fanfiction by dragging explicit things fans had posted online in front of show writers (or even the actors whose characters were being shipped together), and filming the latter's reactions to it. So this might not be something fandom started at all.

Also, I find it crass when I suspect the fan bringing something to a canon creator's attention is exploiting the fact that this person has a platform: no matter what Neil Gaiman said, that fic idea reached a lot of people who only saw it because they were wanting to hear Neil Gaiman. But it's sometimes been interesting to see what they have to say about ships or characters that people love really hard or other things that are basically only a *thing* within fandom. So, "comment on my random plotbunny to your entire audience" bothers me, but finding out that the guy playing Grand Admiral Krannic loves the 501st and Empire fans in general was pretty neat.
