Prisicilla Renea song "Dollhouse" (no intentional relation to show)
I tried to be your picture perfect girl
But you were in your own fantasy world
Tryna control me
Like some kind of barbie
But that just ain't me
Cuz I ain't a doll
This ain't a dollhouse
Your way too old to be
Putting me down like this
And playing around like this
I ain't a doll
This ain't a dollhouse
No I could never be stuck living life like this
Behind these four walls
Cuz I ain't a doll
And I come with imperfections
Epitome of perfection
If you can't understand
Loving the way I am
Then you're no good for me
So glad I kept my receipt

I laughed at some of it, too, but the fanfic thing just set me off.
Even the fanfic thing, to me, seemed to be more about hardcore shippers. The quote in full was:
To be fair, this is a complaint you could levy against any major geek property. Star Wars fans are the worst part of Star Wars, Trekkies ate shit for about 30 straight years and online discussions of your favorite shows are clogged with "Shippers," who disregard anything interesting and insightful about a show, and focus solely on badly-written fanfic fantasies for frantic bean-flicking, their stories swapped between shawl-wearing, cat-owning knitting enthusiasts squeeling until their lungs burst on LiveJournal.
I also...I've read some masterfully written fanfic, most of that was written by Buffistas, but fanfic in general, to me, mostly seems like PWoP written by people who've never actually had sex.
Well, yeah, I could see why you could think that.
Some of it is really bad and makes my eyes roll, in that not-transported kind of way. But there is nothing so bad, freaky, or poorly-written that it does not amuse someone some place.
Who anointed that guy the Fun Patrol?
Besides, I like Eliza Dushku(although now I know why that Vince-as-a-girl Entourage fic felt so familiar...if I were casting Girl!Vincent Chase, it would totally be ED.)
I just proved that guy's thesis, didn't I?
But now I wish that she and E could date so Drama could play the Kramer role and say "E, you're dating her because of unresolved feeling for Vince."
How exciting, I have a new soulmate.
Heh, Strega, I was thinking of e-mailing that article to you. P.S. - I got the link from Mindy Monez.
erika, my main point is I don't think he was going off on fic so much as going off on people who watch the show and then bitch because the writers aren't writing shipper fic.
Yes, LoVe freaks, I'm looking at you.
Also, some Entourage slashers.
Dude, it's *Entourage* not Queer as Folk.
Probably aren't gonna see a show freak out young straight guys by making Vince/Eric canon.
I might still watch it, provided they didn't give up ball games to...go antiquing or something.
