Wank and the Australian Election

re: ckll, wank, dean_sam.

So long as I get to keep my "fucking disgrace to the SPN fandom" title, it's all good because I worked ... wait, no, I didn't uhm, work hard for that title at all. I just really like it. It's SHINY.

Yay and high-fives all 'round for those that wanted Howard gone

What's the wank? I saw somebody else refer to it earlier, but it's not on fandom_wank yet!

*cries*

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

There's talk all over my flist if you wanted to scroll through my friends page.

[fiddleyoumust.livejournal.com]

This will give you a pretty accurate run down of events.

[jrs1980.livejournal.com]

It's up at Chairvoyant. I think it's ready for F_W proper, but I's lazy.

A warning, though, the JF server is being particularly robust lately.

[fiddleyoumust.livejournal.com]

I am hungry.

You will always be the biggest disgrace to me. ALWAYS.

I need an icon of Dean eating. Nevermind! I had one.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

Aww, thank you.

[wenchpixie]

I just really like it. It's SHINY. but where's your hat? Hmmm?

Or your ICON even. I am disappointed Smidge, very disappointed.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

I don't like hats so much, they look silly and/or stupid on me.

Hmm, I should get an icon. *nods*

[muses-circle.livejournal.com]

*sighs* This fandom makes my head hurt.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

*gives you acetaminophen*

Hm, I read some of it, but I'm still totally confused. Whatever.

I've been in fandom since long before the internet, and the 'net just makes it easier for people to stir things up quickly. There's always going to be weird stuff going on in fandom, many, many times due to people's ego issues. It becomes less about the fandom itself, and more about taking sides. You get the people who go, "How DARE you say anything mean about my friend," no matter what said friend might have said originally that caused offense. Then it often becomes a popularity contest, does the instigator have more friends (or friends with louder voices) than the rest. Eventually the fandom divides, not over anything Beloved Show has done, or Revered Creator has done, or Adored Actors have done. It ends up having nothing whatsoever to do with fandom, and it's all about fans sniping at other fans. Sometimes it gets so vicious that innocent bystanders decide to leave because they don't want to get hit by any flying shrapnel (or bullshit, as the case may be). Lather, rinse, repeat.

It's a shame this kind of thing happens so often, but fans are people first and foremost, and people, as Dean has observed, are crazy. I prefer to stand back and enjoy the show, the fic, whatever other creative endeavors people come up with, contribute some of my own, and stay the hell away from the politics and the wank. I'm happier here on the banks of Denial.

P.S. The infighting is STUPID, and it always ESCALATES. Can't everyone in fandom just agree, no more arguing for the next hundred miles, or days, or months? Thanks!

I'm not on any side, I have no personal problems with any of the people involved in the goings on of now, heck I don't even know most of them or really any of them. I just want my title is all. :)

[apey1013.livejournal.com]

See, the nice thing about this fandom is that if there is wank I tend to not know it. *blissfully oblivious*

However, you may keep your title, you Fucking Disgrace (I feel it should be capitalized as though this were fandom peerage). I'm sure we wouldn't have you any other way. ;)

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

Most of the time I'm completely oblivious too, I sometimes hear about it, but I don't often see it.

Thank you :)

[fromyourashes.livejournal.com]

smidge. That's no fair. I thought we were sharing the crown.

You suck. *g*

YOUR ICON, HOWEVER, WINS EVERYTHING THAT WAS EVER CREATED EVER IN THE TIME OF EVER.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

We can still share, I just wanna be boss or Queen or whatever for a little while longer, I was, heck probably still am a nobody in this fandom, it's nice to be recognized a little. Even if it's sort of well, negative.

Heee. Thanks.

*hands over Fucking Disgrace To The SPN Fandom crown*

Jub-Jub can't offer approval or disapproval; he's too busy getting leftovers licked off him by certain Sasquatch...es.

[agt-league.livejournal.com]

Ooh, sparkly! *stares*

*sends polish for your shiny!*
:)

There's a reason I don't do wank-my head hurts and it's confusing!After a day of this bullshit,I still don't fully understand WTF went wrong...but what a trainwreck!
I have both sides on flist,lostandalone22 is not here and ckll's answer made me wonder when did we returned to kindergarten.Oh,well,I am sure there will be more:-/

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

I've been sorta skimming posts related to the wank because I don't get it either, I just sort of sit and nod. It's all sort of very confusing.

[pie_andcoffee]

it took me exactly five minutes to discern your icon.

but that is what made it so wonderful.

that does it. FRIENDING YOU NAOW. the end.

*snuggles next to you and onci and jelloh*

you guys are like, the three witches graces of eastwick eden, lmfao.

if i HAD a penis right now, it would be FLYING. ROFLMAO!!!

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

Jensen has a pegasus!peen and Jared's got a unicorn. S'match made in Mythical Heaven.

Hahahaha. *ahem*

[goodnight.livejournal.com]

LONG LIVE JUB JUB

[jrs1980.livejournal.com]

SPN wank is my favorite, because it's never actually about the show, so it's easy for me to follow. <3

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

Hahaha. Really? Because I have a wicked hard time following it.

[ant3ka.livejournal.com]

I feel like the Big Disgrace to Fandom should be an icon. It is crying out for iconage.

And yes, you are very shiny. That's why I wear sunglasses around you at all times. It's not because I'm a vampire and the sun is so very, very bright.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

I'm thinking I might make that icon.
Hahaha. *ahem* You'd make a very pretty vampire.

[katysam.livejournal.com]

La la la la-la la-la
*tries to stay blissfully oblivious to all things wank*

A huge-ass Yay! and multiple high-fives!
So long little Johnny...

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

I'm mostly oblivious. *nods*

[not-sally.livejournal.com]

*dies laughing*

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

:)

[aeroport_art.livejournal.com]

I think you need an icon that says "smidgy06: FUCKING DISGRACE", with hearts and unicorns all over it *__* Cuuuute!!

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

I like that idea.

[agt-league.livejournal.com]

Yay and high-fives all 'round for those that wanted Howard gone

Loooooooove how you just snuck that in, haha.

♥

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

Seemed like a good place

[culturegeek76.livejournal.com]

I wholeheartedly agree about the "Fucking Disgrace" icon.

You know, if I actually posted half the stuff I really think (about the boys, about the fandom, about myself)on LJ, I'd probably have that title stolen away from you in nanoseconds. (Not that I want it.)

Actually, you know what would be better than just "fucking disgrace" on an icon? Jensen in his scout outfit saying "Smidgy is a fucking disgrace" or "Jensen says: You're a fucking disgrace" or something equally precious.

In my world, FD is a compliment. As is cokehead douche, evidently. ;P Hopefully they won't be as offended by this icon *points*

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

Well, now I'm real fucking curious. I mean LIKE REALLY. With all caps, and probably bolded too but I'm lazy.

I like that idea for an icon too. Maybe I'll make myself a few and rotate.

ICON LOVE!

[resounding-echo.livejournal.com]

What's with the wank? I know enough to know that "ckll" never means good things.

So long as I get to keep my "fucking disgrace to the SPN fandom" title.

Hee. Remember, you're a disgrace only because you have teh power. Seriously. Writers? Will stop striking when you say they stop striking. NAFTA? Totally your fault. I personally think you should get an icon that says: *is responsible for Britney's downward spiral*

[pushingyouaway.livejournal.com]

i do not care for the wank as i believe it's the main reason there's been a lack of porn

(i know it has nothing to do with that, but, hell, gotta put the blame somewhere and with you and that big, shiny crown for 'disgrace to fandom' taking up all the room...;) )


*cookies*

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

I like your thinking process.
