So, I think the filter was trying to find one fic that had all three fandoms, and it's just like "that's not at all what I mean."

Um, ff.net filters work the same way, dude. If you use the ff.net filters "Sirius B.," "Remus L.," and "English," your search isn't going to return 1) every fic that contains Sirius + 2) every fic that contains Remus + 3) every single Harry Potter fic written in English; it's going to (quite sensibly and usefully) return stories in English that contain both Sirius and Remus. So I'm really not sure why you're complaining about this.

Yeah? And it's CLEAR on FFN that that's what happens. It's NOT/wasn't clear on AO3.

SA

BTW, not a dude. I know some people are all "Dude is unisex now!" but it's really not.

Wow, way to quibble about something pointless, lady!anon.

Yes, heaven forbid someone should object to male being the default.

(Anonymous) 2013-10-06 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
Yes it is, and has been for decades.

No, it's picked up double-use as an exclamation. As an epithet for a person, it is still a male term.

(Anonymous) 2013-10-06 05:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Not if you're on the left coast of the US. It's a generic epithet for "person" out here.

AYRT

It's cool by me that you're making your stand, anon, but I've gotta say that I'm not going to change my terminology in the future. I'm a woman who addresses her female (and male) friends as "dude" and feels generally positive about them doing the same to her. If I knew who you were, I'd avoid calling you something you disliked, obvs. But, as it is, I'm not about to self-censor myself on the off-chance that the next anon I respond to happens to be you again. Sorry.

You don't see many civil and sensible responses to people who are being either a) oversensitive or b) trolls, so kudos to you, dude :)
