Entry tags:at least no one's knotting, fandom: sherlock holmes, fandom: teen wolf, goddammit you guys be funnier!, misplaced anger, oh hurrah the daily dot, please mommy make it stop, reading comprehension whut?, too cool for school, tumblr is witchcraft, we fail at not being misogynists

ALL Air-Date Announcements Pertain to Sherlock (and If They Don't, You'd Better Apologize)
Wank and write up taken from the little mousey over at [info]wank_report.

Tumblr user and Teen Wolf fan Heyysourwolf posts the air date for TW's third season. Unsurprisingly, she tags the post #s3 spoilers and--follow me closely, here--#teen wolf.

Sherlock fen, for no discernable reason whatever, assume that the post is regarding the air date for S3 of their show. Because no other show on TV anywhere is entering its third season, apparently. Or something.

Once they figure out that the post was not, in fact, about the return of the BBC series, Sherlock fen lose their shit.

Completely.

Sherlock fandom wants an apology RIGHT NOW, Heyysourwolf. A FORMAL apology. And we're going to berate you with misogynistic slurs and rant about how this is all your fault and how egregious it is that you should make yourself out to be the injured party and, above all, how immature you are, until we get it.

After all: "SOME OF US ARE EMOTIONALLY UNSTABLE DO YOU EVEN FUCKING THINK BEFORE YOU POST? GOD I HOPE YOU GET PUNCHED IN THE TITS."*

* Probability that that particular entry is just somebody awesome trolling the shit out of the other anons with sarcasm: moderately high


EDIT: Aja has written an article about the wank for The Daily Dot.

Besides the sheer idiocy of some Sherlock fans, all this confirms to me is that I have no understanding of how Tumblr works. Like... all of those reblogs and replies all have the same notes, which is just fucking confusing.

Y'know, I've been on Tumblr for over a year, now that I think about it, and I still have almost no idea of how it works. And the little I do grasp still doesn't really make sense. Tumblr be crazy.

You're not the only one. When I'm linked to something on Tumblr, I usually cannot even figure out who actually posted whatever is linked, and whether the person whose account I'm apparently looking it agrees with it or not.

Okay, the magic starts in the tumblr factory, where the posts are made!

Down they come down the assembly line, as feels and scolds are added! Oh, look at this darling one, it was shaming vegans but now it's about Dean and Castiel! You never know what will happen at the tumblr factory!

Now that the posts are ready, we sent them out in the trucks to be put up on tumblrs around the world! You can check a post's pedigree by its notes!

This one has over 500k! It's a pretty tried and true post. It won an award, a fluffy chicken for its creator!

And that's how tumblr works. Tune in next time for Twitter: Where The Magic Happens With Hashtags.
