Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[Picture is the screen-capture of the YouTube video titled "CUPS!! - Pitch Perfect - Sam Tsui, Alex G, Kina Grannis, Kur Schn...", showing four young people sitting around a wooden table in a park or backyard with glasses (the drinking kind) in their hands.]

When I first watched Pitch Perfect, I loved the Cups scene. Then I saw this version. Now when I hear Anna Kendrick's version come on the radio, I cringe. In comparison she doesn't do the song justice; her timing and pitch (hah!) aren't as good as these folk's. She's not... bad exactly, she's just not as good.

I wish they could remake Pitch Perfect and have one (or all, for weirdness) of these four playing the lead.

[Picture are Sailor Saturn and Sailor Chibi Moon from the manga Sailor Moon. Saturn has light skin, medium-length dark hair and is wearing a sailor/school uniform with a diadem. Chibi Moon has long light pink hair in two tails on the top of her hair, light skin and a similar uniform than Saturn, but in pink.]

I suspect that people who ship these two are people who have never had a best friend during childhood.

[Picture is Liam Neeson playing CIA operative Bryan Mills from the 2008 movie "Taken"? He is walking along somewhere indoor, leaning down and to the side and aiming up a gun.]

I support A21 (an organization to free people from human trafficking) - not a secret.

I imagine him being the guy who actually goes and frees the trafficking victims - gun and all. Go, Liam!

[Picture is the logo in Japanese of the anime/manga "Hetalia".]

I never plan to give this series or its fandom a chance. At first, I didn't understand why Russia sucked. This is RUSSIA not some sweet, innocent woobie. If one were to personify Russia, I'd imagine a big, burly, tough and serious dude. In fact, most of the countries are a bunch of hairless twenty-something babies. And white. They're all woobified stereotypical parodies. Appealing to the lowest common denominator of fandom, probably.

The whole premise is garbage. The art design is even worse. Everyone looks exactly the same. Sameface. Every. Single. Character. What the hell?

Secret because: My issue with Russia is probably the dealbreaker for me. And the ugly art.

[Picture is the singing and television presenting duo John and Edward Grimes, known professionally as "Jedward". They are identical twins. They are male with short dark hair dyed blond, light skin and they are wearing identical white T-shirts and blue jackets over that. They are both smiling and talking or singing.]

I'd like to see them play twin elf princelings in The Hobbit. I seriously think this would work as long as they didn't have any actual lines. Just look at them!

[Picture is Christine Taylor playing Matilda Jeffries in the movie "Zoolander". She long blonde hair and light skin and has her eyes closed, her mouth open and her head thrown back. She is also wearing earrings. She appears to be naked.]

I think this is the sexiest sex scene in any movie.

Secret because: What the fuck, self? It's a comedic orgy played for laughs.

[Picture is David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson playing the FBI Special Agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully, respectively, from the TV show "The X-Files". Duchovny has light olive skin and short dark hair, while Anderson has short, wavy red hair. They appear to be on bed together. Duchovny appears to be naked and Anderson is only wearing a black underwear top. He has his eyes closed and is leaning over Anderson's shoulder, presumably asleep. Anderson has an arm around his head and has a lit cigarette in that hand, along with a large ring on the middle finger. She is looking at the viewer.]

I love the rumors that they've been having a secret affair for years. It brings back so many memories about this ship.

[Picture is musician Amanda Palmer and the celebrity chef Paula Deen. Palmer is a woman who has light skin, blue eyes, short dark hair and painted dark red lips. She also appears to have shaved her eyebrows and painted them on with thin lines. Paula Deen is an older woman and has rosy light skin, blue eyes, and medium-length gray hair. She is wearing a pink sweater or blouse.]

I cringe whenever people on Fandom Secrets say: "People make such a big deal about hating her that I'm becoming a fan." ...Because they tend to say it about Amanda Palmer but not about Paula Deen. They both said and did dumb things. Why is it so "edgy" to like one (sometimes just to be contrary) but not the other?

[Picture is a very polished and shiny, round red apple or maybe a decoration in form of an apple.]

I've never had a fic as well received as my most recent one in a new fandom. The numbers of kudos, comments and hits is insane (to me). I feel so special.

Secret because: Big fandom is just big and active and the pairing is popular.

[Picture is Corporal Levi or Rivaille from the anime "Shingeki no Kyojin" or "Attack on Titan". He is a young man with pale skin and short dark hair. He is wearing a brown shirt, a gray tie or cloth and a green cape thing over that.]

I don't get what's so fucking great about him. He's a magnificent bastard? Whoop-de-flippin-ding.

It's like some weird Pavlovian response - media's paired "hot" with "asshole" long enough that all people need is a character to be an asshole for them to think he's hot.

It's the only logical explanation, because this dude is down-right funny-looking.
