[Picture is the children's book "Yip and Yap, a Rand McNally book". It shows two puppies wearing red and blue infant bodysuits.]

Dear fandom and real life friend, I'm sorry I just can't get into your "adult" fandoms like Game of Thrones and Sherlock. I just wish you would stop mocking mine whenever I try to explain why I don't want to watch your shows.

[Picture is the Predators from the movie franchise of the same name. They are humanoid aliens with though craniums and dreadlocks on the sides. Many of them appear to be wearing armors and maybe helmets too? They have this weird lipless mouths.]

I think the Predators are the most attractive alien species ever designed. They're super hot.

I also refuse to take information that isn't from the movies as canon. I hate the whole "expanded universe" a bunch of series do, and it disappoints me how often I come across fanfiction that uses that stuff. It just never seems to work well with the movies in my opinion.

[Picture is green-blue text over a white background with an elegant blue-green border with a sort of floral and leafy theme. It appears to be handwritten too.]

If you write a fic and describe a character as "Pansexual" or "Demisexual" I stop reading.

I'm getting really sick of seeing this wherever I go. There's four main sexualities. Homo, hetero, bi, and asexuality too, I suppose. Pick one. Don't make up imaginary terms just to fell all "unique and special". Using pan or demi to describe a character just reeks of self-insert. Quit making the LGBT movement look like a techie-bopper trend.

[Picture is a sandglass.]

I used to think fandom was a magical place where imagination ruled and everything was fun and games. As I get older I realise; it's all the same people as real life, acting the same way they ever did, merely hiding under different labels and rationalizations. Maybe younger me didn't notice before because I came in with the pre-conception that fandom isn't real life. Except it turns out it's all the same.

[Picture is a naked person? and a nun or a nurse? leaning on and against a wooden structure next to an elevator.]

I really don't like A/B/O. Not just a mild dislike that it's not my kink but to the point that I feel physically ill when I read it. My current fandom is so full of it people don't always remember to warn for it.

I don't quite understand why I have such a violent reaction. I think it's because I hate and despite the idea of people being controlled by their bodies to the point of needing to penetrate/be penetrated.

[Picture is the Renault Mégane car. It's gray and curvy. It has painted on reading eyeglasses.]

Whenever I see this model of car, I think it needs glasses.

Apparently in Japanese "megane" means "glasses".

[Picture is red, orange, green text on a white blank background.]

Not secret: I want to write an epic-length fic about a minor female character.

Secret: I don't think I have the self-discipline to put so much effort and energy into something hardly anyone will read. I feel like a hypocrite because I've always said that I write for myself. I feel like people will only be interested in the side slash pairing.

Bonus secret: I really want to be recognized in this fandom.

Colours related.

[Picture is Belle, Rapunzel, Tiana, Aurora, Snow White and Ariel in their Princess dresses from the Disney Princesses franchise. They are all extra sparkly and smiling.]

I think some people take their hatred of Disney Princesses too far. Let the little kids have their magical escape. It's harmless fun; there's nothing wrong with wanting to be a princess.

[Picture is Zacky Vengeance from the music group "Avenged Sevenfold". He is a man with pale skin, short dark hair dyed purple, wearing a black T-shirt with an orange design on the chest, a metallic tag on a necklace and he has strapped on an electric guitar and tattoos on both arms. He is performing on stage.]

I miss Zacky's purple hair.

[Picture is the cast from the TV show "Once Upon a Time"?]

Whenever I read anything where they go back to Fairy Tale Land, I get all distracted wondering if they then invent indoor plumbing, magic mobile phones, vaccinations, electricity, central heating, etc.

Or if they're happy to go back to the way things were, even though they remember modern life.
