In terms of fanbratism? Hysterical tirades against the evils of fanservice and its lack of profound symbolism >>>>>> fans who happen to enjoy cute things.

And Jesus fucking Christ, people, can we stop pulling that worn-out "LOL fandom is serious business" card like it's street cred for tossing any and all social skills out the window? Hurling shit at catboy/girl fans for liking what they like instead of what you tell them to is a whole different ballgame from dissing cat ears.

I think I want to internet marry you. But I'm taken, so would you settle for a kiss on the cheek and a sack of cash?

[sarajayechan.livejournal.com]

Don't forget the tail!

[case]

I HATE NARUTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoo and all its fans I hate them I want to kill them all!!

Right, so whose fault is it for taking that as some kind of direct personal attack and starting a comment war about it? WTF who cares? Why does -anybody- care? SOMEONE HATES YOUR FANDOM, SOMEONE HATES YOUR TASTE oh no? /wrist /wrist PS I demand an apology!

Sorry, but it's funny when people get all personally offended at stuff like this.

[sarajayechan.livejournal.com]

Yes, it is. And it's also funny when people get so pissed off over other people's personal tastes they wanna go on murdering sprees.

Fandom is fucking funny.

[case]

............ why is everybody taking the murdering spree thing so seriously?

........................ do you actually believe benightedfate would go on a murdering spree and kill people over cat ears?

... and if not, isn't it obvious it's a joke?

[infringe.livejournal.com]

Case!! Have a spoiler: people take fandom seriously.

[sarajayechan.livejournal.com]

...Okay, fine. XP benightedfate, sorry for the lost-respect thing, I know you were kidding. And I'm doing this because I am a pure and good person who is kind and saintly to others even if they are so very very mean to

...damn, this cross is getting hella-uncomfortable. *gets down*

(But seriously, sorry for wanking there. XD)

[sarajayechan.livejournal.com]

You're right about that, the OP and Case were right about not taking the murder stuff seriously.

[degrees.livejournal.com]

I think you're missing the fact that it was not just me, it was about three other people.

Unless you're melding us all into one super-wank-inducer in your mind. Which would be sort of awesome.

Would it have made it better if I had made this rant as a secret? :D

[case]

GUYS

I THINK

ITS TIME

TO

TRANSFORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRM

[case]

Courtesy? I'm not sure, but I don't think calling something a fanbrattish bitch-fest falls under it.

And like you said, somebody expressed a dissenting opinion. Maybe not in the politest way possible, maybe not in the subtlest way possible, but WHERE IN THAT WAS A PERSONAL ATTACK AGAINST CAT-EAR FANS, which is what all the wank was about in the first place? "People squee stupidly over cat ears and it drives me nuts" -- okay.

... so what? What got up everyone's butt about that?

[case]

Also, there was nothing in the OP about wanting to kill the cat-ear fans, only that it might drive her INSANE enough to go on a murdering spree. The key there was it DRIVES HER NUTS, not that she wants to KILL them all, you know.

[case]

Also, where was the shit being hurled at people?

[degrees.livejournal.com]

It was probably when I said the thing about the murdering spree.

FYI PEOPLE: I WASN'T SPECIFIC. WHEN I SAY MURDERING SPREE, IT WOULD MOST LIKELY BE CLOCKTOWER STYLE WITH A LOT OF SNIPING AND MANIC LAUGHTER.

Geez.

Get over yourselves. Just because I don't like what you like doesn't mean I specifically want to kill only you. I happen to dislike a lot of things!

Thank you, have a nice day! ♥

[degrees.livejournal.com]

ALSO: FOR PEOPLE WHO TAKE THINGS TOO SERIOUSLY, THE ABOVE WAS A JOKE.

RESUME YOUR NORMAL LIVES NOW. THANK YOU.

But it is serious business! I mean, who in their right mind would care about what someone hiding behind a computer screen (o noes! so scary) thinks? Who cares if they hate catboys/girls? There's no need to get so defensive over something someone said over the INTERNET (read: the world wide web of fuckery and mockery), especially when we weren't "hurling shit" to begin with. Last time I checked, we weren't the ones who breached the personal attack line.

[failaga.livejournal.com]

Um, actually that wasn't so clear to me?

[infringe.livejournal.com]

What about this (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/generalization)? Is that hard to understand too?
