Gah. This picture bothers me. You can't do that with the trenchcoat.

Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?
[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US on TV (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though — if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.
The use of Stan in fandom seems to be about a year or so old, and I see it mainly on Tumblr. (And, umm, hate it and want to burn it with fire, but that's totes my ish.)
I've seen it on LJ a lot. But I've only been looking at fannish things on tumblr for a few months.
It makes me laugh, because Stan was a murder-suicidal psychotic fan, and people are voluntarily self-identifying with him.
It sounded sort of familiar to me, but in the way that I just slowly absorbed what fen meant, etc.
Don't put the trench coat on Cas's head, people. That's just ... stupid.
Julie, she's a bit of a diva, and has opinions. She can be unwelcoming to those who don't share those opinions. She was very strident a while back with 'cesters and readers who weren't watching the way she does.
OTOH, her canon characters read like my head canon, and she does great outside POV characters.
I equate Stan with the janitor in IMTOD Azazel then possessed for all of S2. I felt sorry for him when Dean was yousonofabitching him in the graveyard--I mean, just a hapless guy named Stan who got grabbed, you know? By the time YED was killed by the Colt, poor Stan had long been toast.
Julie, I think she went on an anti-slash tirade at some point. It was before I was paying attention to people in fandom.
I'm pretty sure you can look her up on Fandom Wank.
Her writing's too soft-edged, and she's a tool, therefore, I won't read her.
Yeah, I kind of agree with you about her characterisation, Plei. I haven't read any of her stuff in donkey's years.
I just got partway through a D/C BB story with no Sam. I can't work out why there's no Sam. It doesn't make any sense. The premise is that there is a reality where John never dragged Dean into hunting and the striga happened to him. Cas throws himself back into this reality and ends up his guidance counsellor in high school.
