: More stuff to keep an eye out for.
We don't have a wank here just yet, but:
Ladies and gentlemen, there are two communities on LJ dedicated to gather Mary Sue authors together and chat.
Watch as the Mary Sue Report finds out about their existence, and are already starting to get their feathers a bit ruffled (Because HOW DARE those EVIL badfic authors make a place where they can meet and have fun just like the MSR is a gathering of people that mock them?) and start to lace up their boxing gloves. Only one person in the whole thing thus far brings up the possibility of parody.
I more than know that most of it is obviously tongue-in-cheek commentary (Loved the "Hey, now we don't have to search for them because they're all in one handy source!" comments, heh...), but as someone who belongs to the comm and reads it daily (and thus knows the behavioral trends of a few folks), I can't help but get this nagging feeling in the back of my mind that one or two might actually be serious in their reactions. And it's from these particular types of folks that I'm expecting wank to roll in about five... four... three...
