Um, Jesse, that is pretty weird, because the same thing happened with a coworker of mine and her daughter. Perhaps the ATL guy makes a practice of drinking with moms?

Well, she said the bar was pretty empty, due to the show being all kids! And there's not really any reason for the lead singer to be at the bar, so maybe he really does?

"Published" "fic" is something more like an homage or an "in the style of" or a licensing arrangement. "Fan Fiction" is more like something written by fans to amuse themselves and their friends.

What about unpublished fic that writers would like to get remunerated for writing? Is it fic while unpublished? How do we know what it is by looking at it on fanfiction.net or AO3?

I admit that I am not a fan of All Time Low. I don't enjoy their music, and most things I hear involve douchebaggery, although they're all pretty damn young, so...

Their fans, however, freak the shit out of me, and you won't catch me near a concert venue if they're playing.

The majority of fic is written about copyrighted works, though, and permission to make a profit off someone else's characters isn't usually going to happen. The difference is maybe when you get a gig writing licensed novels, like the Buffy or SPN tie-ins.

RPF/S is never going to get published, unless the names are changed, so unless writers decide to charging other fans to read online content, I'd say renumeration is just not forthcoming.

Is it here that I saw the All American Rejects version of Britney Spear's Womanizer (All TIme Low reminds me of All American Rejects because of the name).

I find it hysterical, except that I am occasionally weirded out because the lead singer looks JUST LIKE my ex boyfriend. (well probably not now, because ex boyfriend is over 40 now, but still...)

So, is healthcare reform really dead? That makes me want to cry.

Seriously, Stephanie? This is ridiculous!

But that's been done, or at least tried--does it make it not fic anymore? If you write the story about uncopyrighted work does that make it not fic? Or is it intent or actuality of profit?

Well, I heard someone say that Brown's win means HCR is dead. But I thought they passed bills? But maybe they needed another vote to harmonize the differences or something.
