That's why I have so much trouble with "live action fandoms" if you will.

- Joel McHale is not Jeff Winger. (Well - okay, maybe a little bit.) I don't really care how hot he is. I just want to talk about Community.

- I had to leave the Wicked fandom altogether because all anyone wanted to do was gab about Idina Menzel. (Although in fairness, a lot of Wicked fandom consisted of teenagers, so I may have been a little hard on them. Just a little.)

- I'm convinced Sylar worship in the Heroes fandom was only due to him being played by Zach Quinto. Had a homely old man played Sylar, nobody would have faingirled.

And it goes on. I like celebrities enough, but I just don't care that much. About any of them. Even when I was a teenager, I never got it; all my crushes were book characters.

Ha, most of my crushes were book characters too.

Yeah, that blurring of lines between actor/character annoys me too. I can't watch Daryl in Walking Dead without cringing. I just don't care about seeing gifs of another oh-so-down-to-earth thing Jennifer Lawrence says, I don't care about Tom Hiddleston being cute once again, I don't care about an actor accidentally brushing against his colleague and all the twenty gifs that document it.

I just want to talk about the actual shows or films or characters, too :/

AYRT

Yeah... too bad if we said that at any of the comms, we'd look like trolls or wank baiters. I once said that at a community and it was clear everyone thought I was insulting their intelligence.
