My LJ is so chock full of rants about FB fandom and FruityGroup in particular, it's not even funny. Apparently, random stalkers of my LJ (I don't understand this either - I'm not interesting) 'reported' me to the Nazi mods at FG, and I was torn a new asshole and almost kicked from the group as a result. Because of that, all of my FG rants are under custom friends-lock these days. Which is...just fucking SAD, I must say.
...Dude, sad is not the word for that. "Pathetic." That's a much better word. Good grief, you're KIDDING. People have that much free time?
Peppermint coffee?! XD For real?
Yes'm. For real. It's lovely, glorious stuff that is only available seasonally, which makes me sad. But it's sooooo gooooooood.
None of us mature, intelligent fans do. Because it's overrun with fucking idiots. Pardon my French. But it's like a horrible Catch 22. None of the intelligent fans speak up or participate in the fandom because it currently sucks. And, until we do, or create some forums where we CAN have fun, we're all stuck lurking.
You know, that's a damned shame, because it's such a wonderful series, and there's such a VOID out there when it comes to decent Furuba fansites. I mean, SO MANY of them are SO BAD. And it's possible that's because it's still fairly obscure (compared to, say, Inuyasha, for example). But if there ARE intelligent fans lurking out there, then there SHOULD be a place for all of us to get together without fear of teh st00pid.
I'm a Nazi, but I'm not an inherently retarded Nazi. I'm also elitist, so I have no problems mocking the stupid fangirls and feeling utterly superior to them in every way. ^_~v
Well, by Nazi, I mean... the inherently retarded ones who'll pitch a diva fit if my OTP doesn't mesh with their OTP. Or if my characterization doesn't mesh with their characterization.
I used to be pretty strict AyaTori, but I currently RP with an Aya who has a cross-over pairing for the Snake and love it. I'm very flexible as long as immediate family member incest is not involved in a pairing.
Well, that's the great thing about the series -- I can see Aya/Tori (though... bumpy at first), but I myself prefer Hatori/Kana, because I'm a big sap like that. (Oh, and "sad" in reference to the BtVS thing? It's not the :( kind of sad. It's the other kind of sad.) But the series has a lot of room to play around in -- IF PEOPLE WILL LET YOU PLAY.
...
And I see that you went over, so I'm going to read those and reply thusly. ;)
