There are transcripts, though I don't know if they stay up-to-date. And I've found the fandom to be just fine.

[(Anonymous)]

Who's the land whale?

[(Anonymous)]

But they can always stop writing them down, stop making an effort to improve, or stop publishing them...

[chardmonster]

Why the fuck would you want to be in a fandom for media you don't consume?

It's like one of the Homestuck fans who just draws troll porn and doesn't follow the comic. They certainly exist but they are weird and suck.

[(Anonymous)]

Sleepy Hollow renewed for a second season.

Damn, that was quick. (Not that I am complaining.)

[littlestbirds]

I know how you feel. I've given up on WTNV because my attention kept wandering. I'm usually okay with podcasts or short stories, but it's like half of it I find delightful and half of it I can't pay attention to even after repeated tries. The poetry week episode was especially terrible for me, so anything like that goes in one ear and out the other.

Re: Let's write dark and serious Toki fanfiction.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm sorry but this just makes me imagine Jar Jar Binks committing war crimes now

[(Anonymous)]

*pops popcorn*

That said, if it hits the news that someone vandalized a B&N and started setting fire to a bunch of copies of TMI, I've probably finally snapped too.

[(Anonymous)]

And it's no one's fault but their own if they decide to do that.

[(Anonymous)]

Your rage is justified, anon, but letting someone like her steal your joy and ambition is the same as letting her win.

[ex_mek82]

... I was wondering the exact same thing the other day, OP. Spooky.

In any case, yeah. That was a fandom that came out of nowhere, and -as I suspected- pretty much faded a year or so later. It was... interesting to watch from the sidelines, to say the least.

Re: N!S 2

[(Anonymous)]

oh my god i really want a video of one of those movies with cumberbatch lines dubbed over it

Please god let this exist at some point

[hwc]

Even if she were shy and not having a good time, she still could have said "thank you" when OP paid for her shit. No matter how shy you are, a simple "thanks" if someone pays for your fees and food is not too much to ask.

It should ruin your friendship.

[chardmonster]

It should ruin your friendship. They are a bad friend.

Dragons fucking cars

[pkbitchgirl]

Anyone remember this meme?

QueenSimia posted a link to Huffington post about Dino Erotica and I was reminded of the whole dragon thing

[(Anonymous)]

+1

Serious angsty Metalocalypse fanfic is one of the few fandom trends I find more baffling than GRIMDARK My Little Pony fic.

How are you currently spoiling yourself? (Nonfandom, food, drink.)

[cbrachyrhynchos]

Current indulgences, food, drink, bath stuff, household, sheets, etc., etc..

[(Anonymous)]

Cassie Clare. Pop some corn: http://www.journalfen.net/community/fandom_wank/tag/person:+cassie+clare

[pkbitchgirl]

What's that in your icon?

[chardmonster]

I've spent a great deal of my life incredibly shy.

You always say thank you. Always. Even if that's the only thing you can say.

Re: How are you currently spoiling yourself? (Nonfandom, food, drink.)

[cbrachyrhynchos]

Loose leaf tea and quality shaving soap.

:(

[fingalsanteater]

That sucks.

I would think even someone shy and uncomfortable around new people could at least manage a "thank you" or offer to split the bill. I've had some awkward dinner dates with other supremely awkward people and we manage to figure out to split a bill, or offer to make it up to other person later if we are short on money.

I totally feel you on disappointment of someone turning out to not be a great as you hoped.

[(Anonymous)]

I disagree about growing up and getting over it, because I'm petty like that, but I do kind of agree. I have thought about throwing in the towel, but then I write 5k in a week, and I'm doomed all over again.

[(Anonymous)]

Oh her

[(Anonymous)]

Agreed

OP is probably one of those people who talk all the time about writing but never do any, are more into the fantasy of being A Writer than they are into doing the boring old work. Sort of like Lady Catherine de Bourgh from Pride and Prejudice, who would have been a great pianist if only she had ever bothered to learn.
