[ Anon Meme ]

F!S Anon Meme (the Seventh, and now on DW!)


Secrets, rants, opinions, anything you want to say about your fandom or a fandom or fandom in general, do it here! Anonymously, of course. Get it all off your chest.

Some ground rules:
1. Going anon is encouraged but not absolutely required (for those who struggle with captchas and stuff).
2. No autoplaying/autolooping embeds, or embeds that cover/stretch the screen.
3. No dropping personal info or IRL contact info, etc.

That's about it, though!

I'll be linking some general/general-fandom threads I see so people don't repost new threads with the same stuff.

Unpopular Ships
Obligatory Masturbation Thread
Fandoms you wish existed
How old are you?
What series have you always meant to watch/read/play/etc. but have never?
Time and location
Female-centric works
How do you feel about Tumblr?
Pet thread
Guilty pleasure thread
Favorite old shows
First fandom?

Dear random Tumblrite,

When I was young like you, we didn't have social media to interact with the very people we fangirl and squee over. I don't begrudge you for opening that channel of communication with the comedian you and I both love and adore.

But for fuck's sake, can you NOT ask him whether he reads fanfiction about himself?

Dying of second-hand embarrassment,

anon

I mourn for the fandom fourth wall.

Ugh, I haaaaate this. I've seen people link actors to fic/fanart/whatever that they're in on Twitter, and get so much second-hand embarrassment. Whyyyyyyyyyyyyy would anyone feel like that's okay to do?!

ugh ugh ugh.

people should really leave it up to celebrities if they want to involve themselves in fandom or even acknowledge its existence. i'm sure that when some fans write about actors shagging their dogs, most people would like to just live in blissful ignorance.

I cringe so hard whenever I see anyone do this.
