F!S Anon Meme (the ??th)

Secrets, rants, opinions, anything you want to say about your fandom or a fandom or fandom in general, do it here! Anonymously, of course. Get it all off your chest.

Some ground rules:
1. Going anon is encouraged but not absolutely required (for those who struggle with recaptchas and stuff).
2. No autoplaying/autolooping embeds, or embeds that cover/stretch the screen.
3. No dropping personal info or IRL contact info, etc.

That's about it, though!

(Today's post is below.)

Those fics/authors/art pieces/artists that get a lot of praise in your fandoms, but you hate them.

Now's the time to name names. Tell me why you hate that fic that's recced to so much and what have you.

Saucery. I just don't like her writing and think a lot of her stories come off really creepy when I don't think that was the intent.

Helenish. Not because I hate her writing, she's actually an amazing author, but because her fic almost always hits my trope kink buttons but then they are usually so fucking depressing I end up wanting to kill myself by the time I've finished reading them. I have grown to hate them because of this. So close to wish fic fulfillment, yet so very far!

Helen does tend to write some depressing fics. I like how she writes though and she seems like a nice person. Her characterization of John Sheppard is different from how I see him being in canon but I like it anyway.

isn't saucery the person that admitted to shipping and fangirling over her irl students?

I want to smack the smug right out of little miss 'okay, maybe a little bit poignant' not-poignant and her fucking fics. I literally noped out of the first chapter of From Darkness We Rise because her characterization of Jack made me so angry and made it immediately obvious that the whole thing was going to be one big 'but being terrible to people is totally all right if you had a hard childhood!', and her behavior later on, writing huge whiny rants about how Pitch is Just Misunderstood you guys, you should all be nicer to abusers because maybe they really love the person they're abusing! almost made me throw up. And seeing all sorts of people praising her fic like it's the Second Coming and kissing her ass from here to Jerusalem just makes me wish she would go away and not come back ever.

That Sherlock fic, Alone On the Water.

It's not incredibly shit, just not that good. Yet for about a year I couldn't spit on tumblr for people saying that if I hadn't cried at the end, I had no heart. And that it was a fandom classic.

So boring. And no classic.

I think the same writer wrote some other good fics, but not that one.

It fill me with rage that it became this juggernaut. I suspect a lot of its fans were very young Johnlockers who wanted to prove they weren't all about the shipping. The fic was ostensibly gen, but that was a joke. It was obviously highly shippy. So not only were the incessant fans of it hypocritical, they were deluded.

Yeah, that was the gayest gen fic I ever read.

I feel that way about so many "fandom classics" in my fandom. People adore them and act like you can't really ship our ship without reading them, but when I read most of them, they seem OOC and fairly generic "any two white guys" sounding.

I really, really do not like lalondes.

A lot of SJ people hate her because she did "problematic" stuff in the past or whatever, but I dislike her because I really like Annie from SNK and she turned her into an OOC homophobic caricature to add "drama" to her cheesy Jean/Marco fic that happens to be supremely popular.

askcaptaintashigi was a fairly popular One Piece blog for a while. I hated their sense of humor (over-exagerating personality traits to the point of ridiculousness) and have never seen anyone with a poorer grasp on character personalities anyways. All her headcanons were wrong-- from "Nami's sexually shy and has never experimented" ok lol, to headcanoning that Robin was raped and that was what made her stop trusting people. For someone claiming to be a feminist, you sure as shit turned a female character's reasons for emotional struggle into something sexual yet again!

But the weirdest thing is that they were so hung up on Zoro's hair being green-- some headcanon involved him getting abandoned by his parents because of it. IDK if it was a joke or what, but out of all the things to find weird in One Piece, green hair is what you focus on?

Reapersun, but only when she's doing stuff for Sherlock or Cumberbatch pieces. Fucking redpants and her sameface syndrome.

Lexxy is talented, but I wish I could get the art without the ego behind it.

swing_set13 is awful and flighty.

Slash Report is a myopic view of slash fandom, covering fandoms it's hosts have no clue about, and it suffers in quality for all the m/m focus. All those sjws who complain about white cock would have a field day here.

Mind going into detail about Slash Report and how the people running it are clueless? I'm curious but don't really have time to listen to a ton of podcasts to find out for myself.

I love purplekecleon's art and think she's incredibly skilled, but something about how she acts really grates my nerves.

Pugletto. Can't stand their zutara stannin, and they're friends with irresistible-revolution, who I can't help but think has a few screws loose.

colethewolf. He is everything about a Sterek fan I hate, plus his writing is shit. He's held up as some amazing fan and author but I think he's one of those extreme and oftentimes delusional overly emotional fans. I've recently blacklisted his name but he keeps sneaking into my feed now and then.

marielikestodraw had the most appalling attitude to reblogging other people's personal photographs on her tumblr that they specifically stated they did not want public. And she refused to take the stuff down but instead justified it in ugly rants so all her little fans had to soothe her. Not sad to see her go.

Actually this person's a fan artist, named muffinpines. They used to draw adorable fan art of one of my OTPs, but then they suddenly stopped in favor of their friend's crack ship based on some rp, which absolutely made no sense in canon. I couldn't stand that crack ship at all.

I just miss their former artwork. They seemed nice. It's just the people they 'hung-out' with were rude, but that's another story for another time.

Everyone praises it to the skies, and I could barely slog through the first chapters. It's as if, in the author's concern to make it better constructed than the books, they failed to notice how dry and heavyhanded it was.

Target Aquired by Stillalivedoingscience.

Man, I'm so tired of seeing that shit recced in my fandom, mostly because it was the author the one who started reccing it, and then her bunch of followers started doing it non-stop, but other than them, most of the fandom pays no attention to that fic. I tried reading it, I really did, but the writing is simply so uninspired and the fic is quite long, and she failed to hook me long enough to make me want to read that much. But it's the blatant self-promotion and the author's shitty attitude that puts me off, if it weren't for that I'd consider giving it a second try.

That Sherlock fic Two-Two-Bravo-Alpha or sometging simillar. It's just not my cup of tea.
Or HP Nightmares Furure Past, couldn't get into it at all.
I don't really hate any fic or art.
