"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty

At this point, I think we should invent our own bizarro-world subgenres of fic, and convince everybody that they're thriving subcultures all about... warts.

The problem with this is that if you create a wartiefic community on LJ, populate it with sockpuppets, toss up an intro post and some drabbles, and maybe stage a flame war between the fictional community moderator and an equally fictional wart-hater, actual Warties eventually will show up and rejoice that they finally have a community of their own. And when you realize these Warties are serious in their Wartie discussions and Wartie fic writing and not other sockpuppets your friends invited, things will get awkward.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Re: CarPreg. I just googled it.

SERIOUSLY????

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! HONK!

It's really not as fun to say "but did you read the one where they're CENTAURS?!" when Aimée only reads in a fandom where there are canonical centaurs.

Word.

Too true.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I remember being somewhat put off by all the Dangerous Ancient Transforming Machine of the Week trope stories that were rife in SGA fandom a couple of years ago.

Then came the Ascend or Die Machine and the Exploding Tumor Metastasizer...

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I have this icon with the text "Canon, it's the new black", because it's so true, Matt! And not just on SGA. There are so many shows that smell so ficcy.

And now I'm trying to come up with something that I cannot conceive of anyone really latching onto...

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

And I read far schmoopier pairings that a lot of people like , like Spike/Buffy, Josh/Donna (from WW), Pacey/Joey, Ryan/Summer (from the OC, Luke/Loralai. In slash, my new crack is Luke/Noah, from As the World Turns, and Matt/Mohinder, and wincest. I want most of my fic to be big and romantic, but frankly, I will read anything

Sophia, we are a lot alike. I love Josh/Donna, Luke/Lorelai, Matt/Mohinder. I have no doubt if I were home during the day, I'd be watching As the World Turns for the Big Gay Teen Love story.
