Maybe some secrets should stay secret.
So, Fandom Secrets, kind of like Post Secret but for fandom etc. etc. Someone posts a secret asking the musical question "if you're not watching anime or reading fic or RPing what the hell are you doing?" Most replies in the comments are along the lines of "I KNOW! WHAT DO PEOPLE DO ANYWAY??", though a few are more accommodating in answering the secret's (possibly rhetorical) question.
Bokuno, however, begs to differ a bit more emphatically, kicking off a string of wanking highlighted by kinneas and rachelthedemon engaged in a battle TO THE DEATH!!! over who had it toughest or something. Also, drinking and drugs. (I'm paraphrasing a bit.) An anonymous commenter advises a reality check, more people interpret non-fandom life as meaning getting drunk (because there's no such thing as a fan with a drinking problem, I guess), and rachelthedemon continues to be defensive. And hostile! And angry! Ouch, it's gotta start chafing by this point.
At least one anonymous was kind enough to give us a helpful to-do list.
I wonder if this post will make it through?

Man, wank on Fandom Secrets makes me sad.

Because, it's like...there's a reason people keep the secrets secrets. It's because they realize how stupid such opinions/thoughts are. Or, alternatively, they realize just how badly people will react.

Which is proved by the reactions to the secrets.

Sheesh.

No matter what Kinneas says, she automatically loses because whenever her name pops up I automatically think SPASMODIC TWITCHY ANN COULTER OH NOES.

Tragic textbook case of how using a single overly distinctive icon for too long can damage your internet image. ;__; I'm glad to see her branching out, but "ketchup lightsaber John Kerry," "frantic banana deep-throating Steven Colbert," "sad facepalming Pope John Paul II," and "Gaston's single mutant giant eyeball" will none of them be effective rehab.

Kinneas, get a kitten icon! An EXCEPTIONALLY CUTE one. STAT. Your image is flatlining. Don't let anyone sic House icons on you, no one can survive the onslaught of Hugh Laurie, and for you he represents more or the toxic poison you must flee. And, for the love of god: stop ODing on fast twitch animation. Let your icons unclench!

So, "fandom" any activity related to entertainment media, then. Good to know. I had no idea I was in so many fandoms. Guess I've got some Weather Channel and Far Side slash to write. Thank goodness for all the talking cows and chickens, otherwise Far Side slash would be hard.

This is where I point out that it's pretty rockin' to be involved in a fandom that almost by definition requires you leave the house. But you know my stance on that--just 'cause I'm not watching anime, and I don't do fanfic or RPing doesn't mean what I'm up to isn't fandom.

Well that's just a huge hotbed of WRRRYYYYYYYYY.

Let's see, what to do besides fandom. Oh! How about maybe doing homework. Or doing a self-portrait. Reading a magazine. Inventing a language. Sketching and doing story concepts. Talking to a friend. Inventing a whole new world, and drawing or writing about it. Taking a walk.

Also--GOLLY! I had no idea ANYTHING could be a fandom! That makes my Peirsol/Sanders het fic SO much easier to write! OTP, I say, OTP!!!!

I have to say I sort of feel for #8. I don't get out much, which is only half my fault. Fandom IS how I get out of the house. It's not my only social life, but I just find a lot of "non-fandom" things to be agonizingly boring.

Except football. And knitting.

...Okay, baseball's kind of nifty, too.

There's nothing better than hordes of fans all trying to prove how less socially maladjusted/mentally whole they are than the others.

It's really quite relaxing to watch for those of us who quite openly acknowledge we're one pancake short of a stack and fandom is our coping mechanism. Maybe I should read Fandom Secret for my anxiety disorder instead of taking meds. ;-)

I knew this would end up here. As soon as I saw the "You all have no lives" arguments start it was a done deal.

Sorry, I'm just confused by #5. Dean would never "put out" for someone who's meeeeeeeeeean to him? I think we're envisioning slightly different Deans here. There's a reason it's called angry sex, people!

Personally, I've never been happier about being a drunken slut.

Because you keep talking about how much there is to do outside of the internet that isn't about drinking and clubbing and drugs. I don't know how many times I have to pound it through your thick skull into that knpw-it-all peabrain. If you are going to make an affirmative defense like that, it's your responsibility to back it up when someone asks you to.

Yes. YES! The only things to do outside of the internet are about drinking and clubbing and drugs. This explains soooooo much.

Like why this person is a shut-in, socially maladjusted fucktard.

Does anyone want to tell me who the people in #27 are?

(So many fandom secrets seem to be "I secretly like this het couple" and I end up wanting to check out the fandom so maybe I can not-secretly like them too.)

There are people who ship Airrazor/Terrorsaur? I thought people only did that because she was the token female.

Cool.
