It wasn't deleted this morning when I looked at but there was some big long post that I didn't read. Guess I should have.
Askye, someone c&p'ed it into my journal, if you wanted to see it.
I'm upset, but I have to say, best wanky flameout evah!
Buffy! If I wanted to fight, you could tell by the being dead already.

Like I need a hole in my head

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
There was a mod who deleted it without the knowledge of...everyone?
This is bizarre.

Thrive to spite them
I like fandom wank, it's the only way I can keep up with kerfuffles.
Also, I was reading through fanfic_hate and in the replies to the first comment about who they hate (Ducks) someone invokes Snacky's law.

I have to admit with some guilt that there was at least one post on fanfic_hate that I was entirely in agreement with.
Well, not too much guilt. It was nice to see someone say it. Someone who isn't me. *grin*

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi
I love the idea that not only did they delete f_w, they deleted the explanation for why they deleted f_w. Like the hate built up to the point where it developed anti-gravity force, and collapsed into a black hole.
It's possible I've been working too hard.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'd imagine someone's done a Buffy/Spike songvid to Outside by Staind (or perhaps Wesley/Lilah). Has anyone hear heard of a good one?

It's like the Ultimate Fandom Wank.

Except F_W is back. So.

I think that makes it even wankier. A giant flounce that didn't take.

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
Okay, I've got a question, for folks who have been Part Of Fandom longer than I have.
Do people really get leapt upon and savaged like unto a defenseless gazelle if they say something negative about a popular piece of fanfic? I mean, does that happen? Or is it some kind of urban legend? I'm curious because I don't think I've ever seen it happen myself, but some people certainly seem to think it's likely to.
(I'm not talking about "but if I say something negative no one will like me!" That's, you know, life.)
