oh, well the people I followed didn't so much cause drama as they reblogged other people and complained about them. A lot. Say for example there was a post by someone along the lines of "OMG JAWN LUVS SHERLOCK AND JAM!!! LOL THAT'S NOT LESTRADE'S DIVISION OMG MYCROFT LOVES CAKE!!! JAM JAM JAM", they would reblog it with angry comments about how stupid they were. Basically I just ended up seeing a lot of second-hand drama through a) the original dumb immature posts and b)the angry elitist fans acting like they were better than everyone else because they hated everyone. It made me sad since I had thought the Sherlock fandom wasn't that ridiculous before. But I didn't want to unfollow them since they generally post lots of stuff I like.

And then Elementary happened... =P

Oof. Elitists are more annoying than the random thirteen year olds saying "OMG JAWN LIKES JAMMMM." JUST LET PEOPLE HAVE FUN AND STOP COMPLAINING DAMMIT.

(Except if you're complaining that a fan was misogynist/rude to another oppressed group inadvertently e.g. gay people, but no one ever really complains for some reason over the important things like that.)

Ugh Elementary complaints clog up my feed a lot too though. It's very annoying.

Sherlock fans seem to be getting more ridiculous as the hiatus drags on, unfortunately. Everything about the show seems to be getting more perfect in the minds of all of the fans on tumblr. Also, both gayer (as in like where there was once no gay, boom now there's gay) and cutesier. Sometimes I wonder if I'm watching the same show as some of the people that I'm following. . .

I really hope season three gets here before we all go mad.

seriously! we need more episodes! the long waits and small number of episodes doesn't help things at all. The fandom has so little original content to consume (if that is the only holmesian thing they watch) that all they have is the same jokes and lines to laugh about for basically a whole year. It's reasonable to be annoyed at the oversaturation of jokes that stop being funny as a result, but it seems unnecessary to be a huge dickhead about it and to be rude to people that are not aware of how riled said jokes can get people. (Just saw an example of this on my dashboard now, as it were.)

basically folks are crazy. There are the ones who think that the show can do no wrong, and the angry fans who liked the show but are now more intent on hating on moffat and the rest of the cast for anything they might say. (justified, in some cases, especially that of moffat)

Sigh. I need to learn not to care about this fandom. But all the negativity just gets to me. XD
