Secret 1 - Fandom ship wars

[transcriptanon]

[Picture is a little girl crying as an adult puts a band-aid on her arm.]

For years, I've been a fan of a pairing that's hated. Hated because its fandom is oversized and notorious for bashing, wank, stomping on canon, and starting one-sided shipwars. Naturally, I hated the rival ship. It was more canon, more popular and its fans always seemed like the sane and reasonable ones. Always the victims of our bullshit. This badly chafed my ass.

So instead of a more mature alternative, I trolled an anon community, with an obvious strawman persona that shipped the pair I hated, and hated the pair I shippied. Just to feel better about myself and maybe gather up some counterarguments. Much of the community knew I was trolling, but a good number fell for it. I would sometimes feel bad for giving a bad reputation to my hated ship's fandom, but once my precious One True Pairing got slandered I went right back to trolling.

Then I tried trolling a different community, which was loaded with fans who hated my One True Pairing. Everyone who replied to my bait saw right through me, and one of them knew exactly who I was and what I was doing.

That incident was so humiliating for me, that I think about it almost every day, and get depressed over it.

Bonus secret: I'm almost eighteen.
