My brain makes unfortunate connections, y'see.
I go online sometimes, but everyone's spelling is really bad. It's... depressing.

Been a while since I've read this, and it's still damn hysterical: Deep Fanfic Thoughts, by Jack Handey.

Thanks, shrift!

If they had fanfic back in the Dark Ages, I bet the most common question readers would ask is, "Can't you put a catapult in this story?" No, I'm sorry. That would violate canon.
Broken now.

Oh, gleep. Canon. Trebuchets. gleep.
Darn you all, especially Lizard. Now I've got a whole bunch more bookmarks to check out in slowtime.
How is Glass Onion rep-wise, compared to fanfiction.net? I'm feeling hte hunger for more feedback.

I'm also fond of:
Consider the daffodil. And while you're doing that, I'll be over here, taking your story and posting it as my own to another list.
Too bad Starsky didn't know how to ice skate, because then you could write a story where he's in Holland on a case and Hutch says, "Starsky, go skate for help," and people would really like it.
People think it's fun to write fanfic because you get all those readers. But they forget the negative side, which is the psychosis.

If you define trolling as signing onto a list under a false identity, flaming people at random for no good reason and then acting like you're the victim when people finally get fed up, then yes, Miss Goody Two-Shoes, I guess I am a troll.
REALLY BROKEN NOW!!!!!
Too funny.

No comparison.
Fanfiction.net - shedloads of people, lots of shite, some good stuff.
Glass Onion - handful of people, no shite that I've read, some okay stuff, some good stuff, some v. good stuff.

You will get less feedback, but when something is good, you will get better feedback and, at the risk of sounding like the biggest snob in snobionia, often from writers, which for some reason means more to me.
Silverlake has Feedback Fridays. Low-key, on-list, groovy. Yeah, I tend to limit where I post my stuff to places I dig/respect/etc. BUT, I don't tend to post WIPs anywhere but the LJ.
I don't even look at ff.net anymore.
