[ 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?

I would like to add that Amy Keating Rogers also stated that she has a son with intellectual disabilities, and she was absolutely mortified when she learned 'Derp/Derpy' was a slang word for 'retarded', and that Derpy Hooves was/could be considered a stereotype of intellectually disabled persons.

The pissed off Bronies went after Yamino solely because she's known for being *very* outspoken on certain issues, the Derpy name being one of them. All while proving they can talk the talk of 'love and tolerance', but cannot/refuse to practice what they preach.

And when you have people from people who work on the show telling a fanbase to lay off someone, then that fandom doesn't deserve nice things anymore, imo.
