How, exactly, does the word "fetish" describe slash? The fic itself? Or the general concept of slash?
Well, my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
It's only June! Isn't it too early in the summer to be running through The Meta Of Fandom?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
The general concept. As in, "someone tell me if there's het content along with the slash. Not that there's anything wrong with slash, but it's not my fetish."
(I am paraphrasing.)

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

We're pervs if we like to read the boy-on-boy. You know, the usual.

Remember, this is BBF. Now that both BtVS and AtS are over, there's nothing but the meta from here on out. t /sarca... oh, hell, y'all know that one doesn't close

Or just piss off everyone in listening distance.
It's really a wonderful example of how not to defend yourself when you think you've been wronged. "I'm going to post in an aggressive and snotty manner, using strong, strident language and diminutives to address everyone who does not agree with me! And then I shall cap it all off by demanding that someone give me the Spuffy porn, already!"
Riiight.

I see. Inapt choice of words, though if it was deliberate, I get what she was trying to imply. (Basically, what amych said. Pervs. WhatEV.)

Well, that's true. But there's the Why Are You All So Passive-Aggressive discussion going on, too. I expect Just Write Some Fic Rather Than Whining, Dammit! to come around any day now.

Yeah, makes me glad I'm currently no-mail on the list. Because from without, I can say "whatev", but if I were in the midst of it, I'd be screaming right now.
Anyway, lunchtime. Later, pervs.
