	And here I thought reading all the wank would get me caught up, instead of just seeing one person's side on my friends list. Good to know I should just read it, snicker, and move on. (Reply to this)(Parent)

Okay, people misinterpret posts aimed at those other than themselves and take offense.

Then, the solution for this is to, when offended by posts that might not have been talking about you, fight back by calling out others by name, even if they might not have been talking about you? The solution to too much fighting in the fandom is to start policing everyone's posts and telling them what to write in their own journal?

Hmm, whatever happened to ignoring people unless they had the stones to come out and complain to you in the first place?

We have to pick a side? Um, okay. *weighs JC-love in hands* Hmmm. *gently squeezes Justin-love to check for firmness* ...... Wade! Fuck these J people. Except AJ, because he's fun. Um. No, especially fuck AJ. I could do that right now, if only he'd cooperate.

Anyway. I hereby publically declare that I'm Fighting The Good Fight for Wade, because they're ALL trying to keep him down. His mother told us so, and we all know she's not psycho at all.

God. Someone get me a drink.

misswindy always brings us such wonderful wank! She gets bonus points because

embitca came to play.

And that last link? Whew! At least half the people in the comments were losing their shit over... what, exactly? I'm still not sure. Other people not liking their favorite popstar? People saying mean things about record company executives? People making icons?

We've all worked to make this a sparkly and friendly place to be That brought a tear of joy to this wanker's eye.

I wonder if she really thinks it's true. 'Cause I just can't see a whole bunch of fans getting together and working so hard on something like that. Fanfic awards are contentious enough, let alone a fandom with a mission statement.

Also, I liked when you were told it couldn't be a personal dispute between you and

without_me because you were dragging everyone else into it.

::shakes finger at you::

"Now,

embitca, you should know better! In this fandom, we LURVE everyone! No one is allowed to disagree, because other people might get their widdle feelings hurt. We've worked so hard on our sparkly, loving reputation. Don't go getting all Smallville on us!"
