Right now I'm trying to become familiar with Cassie Claire. I have no idea why I've heard of a HP BNF so goddamn many times when I don't even read fic. Apparently it's due to the Cassandra Claire is Everywhere Law.

(Also, I don't have nearly as much work today as in other days, so I'm into the internerd in a big way this afternoon.)

Oh, remember the days when Cassie was just the coiner of "pervy hobbit fancier" and "still the prettiest"?

Wait, that was her, right? I mean, she does have an upside?

That was her. That was probably the beginning of the Cassie-worship.

And a fine place to start. Of course, they seem to have missed some really obvious places to stop.

I find the whole thing kind of tainted now. Like, I almost wish I didn't still think it was funny, because I'm so disgusted with her and her minions.

I think the LotR chick who believed that she was physically transforming into Elijah Wood/Frodo Baggins and still had people defending her after making that public wins the blue ribbon for nuttiness.

I'm still reading the original Unauthorized Fandom Biography (not the wiki post). It's pretty remarkable investigative reporting, and I can't stop reading it.

I'm sorry, what??? Please tell me there's a link, or a recap, or something on FandomWank. I need to know more about this.
