I feel you, OP. My first fandom, a long time ago, was a soap opera fandom. I don't tell many people that was my first fandom because of the judgment. It was a lot of fun though, and I miss it too. The craziest stuff happens on soap operas, which really lets you go crazy in fic too.

[(Anonymous)]

Soap operas aren't my thing, but I'm glad you had fun OP. There's no 'correct' kind of media to be into fandom-wise and honestly, if I could get past the way soap operas are structured(they're meant to work the way they do, I just don't jive with it) they do look like they're a lot of fun to engage with and I bet chatting about them with other fans is also really fun.

Because in the end that's all that matters. :)

[(Anonymous)]

Which soap opera, OP?
I used to watch Days Of Our Lives, Another World, Santa Barbara, and Guiding Light.

[(Anonymous)]

I missed the word opera at first, was a bit disappointed when I figured it out. I really wanted to know more about drama in the soap fandom.

[(Anonymous)]

I admit I don’t think of soap operas as having fandoms, more like dedicated viewers. Which, duh *face!palm*

It’s a shame you think anyone would look down on you for it though. Soap operas are so popular and they DO have a devoted audience who get wrapped up in plots and characters and casting…basically they’re the perfect medium for fandom!

I’m glad you had the wonderful experiences that you did and I hope you can experience that again whether it’s another soap opera or something else.

Aww, I'm not OP but this could be my secret! Days of Our Lives was my obsession in high school (the 90s). I dabbled in Passions, because it was so bonkers. Got hooked on Another World in its final days and then followed some of its stars who moved over to Guiding Light.

OP is spot on about the wackiness of the fandom. Back in the good ol' days of message boards...

[(Anonymous)]

I recall being obsessed with Days of Our Lives in my middle school and high school days.

I have a fandom friend who is a huge soap opera viewer. I was able to talk to her about her favorite ship on Days because Sam was my favorite character when I was into the show. I stopped watching before EJ came into Salem though. I was able to follow the story but I just had to take my friend's word for it that Sam and EJ had a steamy roller coaster relationship.

I sometimes wish I could watch soap operas like I used to but the medium doesn't appeal to me anymore. I do miss being able to talk to people about soaps sometimes lol

[(Anonymous)]

I still watch soaps. I'm also a wrestling fan so I clearly have no shame lol

That would be great. Or without plot, even.

All I really remember about this game is that one of the endings has one guy dancing around with another guy's intestines.

Which is to say, sure, why not.

I guess the question I would ask is, do you foresee ever commenting on or reblogging the same post as any of them? If you do, then be aware that blocking someone makes it so that they can't participate in any comment chain that you're in. That's the only real downside.

If you don't think that's ever gonna happen, though, then don't worry about it. Like you said, you're curating your experience, and in this case not blocking them makes it hard to find what you're looking for, which sort of defeats the purpose of tags.

Call me cynical, but I don't believe all the people complaining about this would flock to the movie theater to watch a film about the displaced people of Los Alamos. I think they like to virtue signal about it, though.

SAME about the pan. I don't even like eggs/omelette particularly much but I really want a tamagoyaki pan. And one of those small tempura pots for deep frying even though I rarely deep fry stuff. Speaking of which - dear lord does she deep fry a LOT of food. Out of the bentos in one week, at least 3-4 have deep fried food...

Hard same. I'm participating less and less as time goes on, because I'm honestly just not understanding my fellow fans.

It's sad, but hey, maybe things will swing back in the other direction at some point down the line.

Fandom wank communities?

[(Anonymous)]

Any place to read about fandom wank?

Re: Fandom wank communities?

[(Anonymous)]

I don't know, but trying to search for one on your behalf just led me to read a bunch of disconnected rants on tumblr about fandoms I know nothing about, so that was kind of fun.
