We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

I love fandom kerfuffles.

There was a woman in XF who thought that Mulder was an Unappreciated Hero, and that the Scullyists Were In Power and Abused the Right-Thinking Writers of Mulder-As-Hero stories. She would post these appalling rants WITH CAPITALS, and very poorly characterized stories that had Mulder and Scully getting stoned with Mulder's gay friends from Oxford.

And when she didn't get recced on the big rec sites (because she was bad!), it was the Fault of the Great Scullyist Conspiracy, dammit! Mulder is a HERO, and Scully is merely his bitchy sidekick, not even worthy to lick the soles of his polished Bruno Magli wingtips.

She had such marvelous rants: everything was black and white, no shades of grey, no other plausible characterizations except hers (which was MULDER AS HERO). Quite fascinating.

She clearly never understood that the reason she didn't get recced on the big sites was that she was (a) annoying and offensive personally; and (b) not nearly as good a writer as she thought she was.

Eventually she posted a not-very-good Mulderslash epic, and stomped out of the fandom. I hope the door hit her hard on the ass as she left. Heh.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

HAHAHAHA!

HAHAHAHA!

Heh. Wow. That's... sad. Heh. I mean, really. I just read it, so I don't follow the hissyfits. I am amused by the rash of "Your Justin Hate Makes The Baby Jesus Cry" icons.

"Your Justin Hate Makes The Baby Jesus Cry"

See, this one seems to be an offshoot of the JC v. Justin kerfuffle, which is my favorite kerfuffle ever. It gave me good ficcage.

Can I get a WOOP WOOP...the remix fic is done, bay-bee!

ETA: I'm relatively sure it sucks but I can't seem to care. Cause it's DONE!

He's clearly on the verge of becoming a gay icon.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Kerfluffles....are avoidable. And I work with that avoidableness.

And the big news of the night? My insomnia and obsessive love of tweenie sports movies has led to to write Mighty Ducks fanfic. Please refrain from the ritual shooting.

Just tell me it's not slash and there will be no blood shed.
