I hereby liberate fanfiction from the clawing grasp of the self-professed expert, the critic, the grammar fag, the boor, and the bully. I set it free from its obligation to be entertaining, civil, well-written, or even coherent: fanfiction, your purpose in this world is to serve as Entertainment Adjunct and Creative Indulgence, Hallowed and High Meeting Ground of daydreamers and the objects of their dreams. You exist in yourself, slave to no one, property of your author's wishes and pleasure to any who will enjoy you with a good heart.

Um. WTF?? Because I know we all like to ~~poison our eyes with bad~~ read earnest, beautiful, "CREATIVE" fanfiction.

That's why we're here, right?

Hey your Misogyny is showing!

I mean really it's not like this whole thing most likely stems from this person's inability to get a date so he MUST get back at those BITCHES who rejected him.

Via the internet of course.

Ah, but it's worse than that. If you can stop shaking your head long enough at the original misogyny, and you read through to the retort to its identification...

Aside from being misogynist, this is incorrect; I'm not.

>>I like how you take exception to being lumped in with girls, but not with girls being lumped together as backbiting bitches. Because they are, you know. And you're acting just like them.

Er, wouldn't the bit where girls being lumped together as backbiting bitches is described as misogynist, constitute taking exception?

And that means you're callous, and cruel, and you take delight in your cruelty, and you aren't even interested - really - in criticism and fic improvement. It means you're primarily interested in self-gratification. You are vampires, feeding from a source that will never go dry: girls who are young or stupid and interested in writing fic.

Arundelghost says this like it's a bad thing.

And what a pompous, self-important n00b Arundelghost is. To be honest, at first I thought it was a joke...it was so...pompous.

Contrary to this n00b's hopes, this would only encourage the likes of me to do more ficbitching. Yeah!

	There were a few comments by ArundelGhost that did make me snicker a bit... sadly enough... it's probably because it's the sort of wanky thing I'd say... Also, I can take so fucking much criticism it's godlike Did I pitch it too high? Always tough knowing how well-up your audience is. Ah, I pitched it too high. (Reply to this)

I'm glad I'm not in fandoms, because I love me some One Piece, and if I had to deal with this on a daily basis I think I'd slit my throat. But oh, such gems.

Actually in your position I would have thought that I was probably in over my head.

I could rape you from space with someone else's dick. You've got nothing.

I'm without question a superior flamer and critic to Lise and everyone else who has so far replied to this post.

But I am completely interested in you, my angel. You perceive I am listening very intently to every word you say.

It's a waste. It's ugly. Fanfiction, no matter how bad, isn't.

IT PUTS THE LUFFY PLUSHIE IN THE BASKET!

I love that this guy portrays him(her?)self as a defender of the downtrodden, misunderstood 15-year-old moron demographic. God knows they're being oppressed left and right these days. Poor things.

Helpful hint: if someone is afraid to write because someone might make fun of them, then they have no right to make Zoro's ass pregnant.

Yes but that simple fact just completely undermines his/her Grand, Holy Point, that you shouldn't be mean to people because... Well because this person says so and since their ego is sooo huge it has it's own gravitational pull, we should listen.

{because I love me some One Piece, and if I had to deal with this on a daily basis I think I'd slit my throat.}

Dear lord the three-way Mpreg fic where Shanks is for no good reason an utter bastard. I don't know whether to weep or scream with rage.

Really I didn't know that I wielded such POWER, does that mean that if I tell someone to stop doing something, they'll do it, no questions asked? Now to get me a cape and some tights.....

Yeah, as mentioned up-thread, its usual name is "misogyny."

Ew. That post just makes my skin crawl. Trust me, having been in a couple of male-predominant fandoms, fanboys can be JUST as bitchy as fangirls. The symbolic wang-waving knows no bounds, and paranoia (e.g. "The mods are all out to keep us down") breaks out regularly.

Personally, I prefer some nice refreshing snark.
