19. What about fandom drives you crazy sometimes?

As a fic writer what bugged me was people who felt totally justified in harassing you until you put a new chapter out. Like I don't have an actual life and all I do is sit at the computer writing fic all day.

I also never got ship wars. I'm credited with saying this about D/G in the HP fandom "Our ship is crazy so our shippers down't have to be". All the crap between the Harry/Hermione shippers and the Ron/Hermione shippers was very irritating.

Also, Cassie Claire. If you don't know what I am talking about, google it. Google Cassie Claire fandom wank. That should get it. I never got involved in any of the Cassie Claire wank, but even reading about it irritates me. She irritates me. Probably as much if not more than Stephanie Meyer. Not because she has bad ideas or writes poorly (all supposedly lifted things aside), but because she's a self-important c*** about it, and I realize that calling her a self-important c*** could call down the sockpuppet thunder, but I kind of don't care. It's my OPINION that she's been a D-bag about stuff, and that she will continue to be a D-bag about stuff. This is a good thing to read on that by alli6 on Tumblr. It has links to everything you need to know about CC and includes some more recent wanky events: "And that concludes our little history lesson, and I think the main point I’m trying to make is that it’s cool to like her work but don’t be a blind stan because Cassandra Clare is kind of a shitty douchebag who has done a lot of shitty douchebag things."

Still, I only thought the HP fandom was crazy until the SPN fandom came along. Don't even get me started there.

At work. Am over freak spell of the other night.

I have all but finished the Blaise/Luna piece [livejournal.com profile] kira_snugz requested as payment for good Weezer song guessing. I just need to wrap up the end. It's almost at 2500 words now. Might end up being about 3000. I would have pressed on last night, but around 10 I just got too tired, so I logged off and went to bed. I'll finish it tonight before I am picked up for the start of my weekend.

*smirk* I love seeing people I haven't seen in a long time. We have so much to catch up on. It's gonna be weird though because I don't know what to expect. I guess I'll have to be ready for anything.

I'm looking forward to Smackjawea's roller derby bout on Sunday too. I need to go to Walmart ot Target after work and get a lawn chair ro sit in for it though. And possibly a cooler to put cold drinks in. Grrr.
