2:55am: Because being prepared for the inevitable zombie outbreak is serious business....
Over on Zombie Survival community on LJ, its generally pretty wank-free. Its all about the love of zombies and what one would do should the dead begin walking the earth. Well, at least it was until Stonnerchick (word of warning: her journal layout is rather difficult on the eyes) makes what would generally be thought of as a harmless "how was your thanksgiving" post. Other members attack her like....well, like a ravenous group of zombies.

She comes back 2 days later with a poignant goodbye post. </ end sarcasm> The members really don't seem all that upset to see her go.

Wait, didn't she say she was leaving?

Now shes just asking for them to bend her over table and really give it to her......

8:44am: in the grand tradition of the circle of wank!
I bring you verse #934709 of the usual fanfiction critique wank. This one also seems to have elements of "contemporary writers are better than any classical writer going" and "you can't have love without sex!"

I very strongly suspect that whatever entry /started/ this is buried under f-lock in some BSG2003 fandom journal, because nancy777ca writes like she's reacting to something.

Whatever it is, she starts off ranting about con-crit vs flames -- an old and familiar theme to us wankas. But somehow this quickly devolves into "It's only this narrow snobbery that makes people think that just because something is old, it's better than what's out now." and "I will very easily put up the least sexual of a passage of a writer of today up against your most intense passage of fiction written a hundred years ago."

Methinks miss nancy hasn't read much in the way of victorian erotica.

The first thread has shades of politiwank, as tobias_jacke screams in to object to lymiryc's creative use of "Republican", but that doesn't last long as nancy777ca comes in to support her lymirycy friend. But tobias_jacke is not daunted! S/h/it gets into it with carrielh in another thread, in the usual wanky verses, and nancy777ca also seems to suffer from last-worditis!

myalchod (whom I know and though whom I found this) hops in with a polite and short word about beta-readers, and both nancy777c and tobias_jacke leap upon her with all four feet, suggesting that their objection isn't to "suggestions" but to specific wording -- which appears to boil down to /not/ being snarky and/or sarcastic. (At which point I have to bodily restrain myself from leaping on nancy777ca's reply to myalchod because, /god/, nasty.)

hederahelix tackles the classical vs contemporary, while sentraaquila and ancarett both have so much to say that they make entries of their own. ancarett's post has a lot of "word" type comments but no wank there. Yet.

My favourite bit: All those writers you so highly praise were considered trash in their day. Every. Single. One. I gurantee you, guran-frakking-tee you that 100 years from now people will be praising Danielle Steel, Stephen King,Diana Gabaldon. Karen Moning, Paullina Simons, Jackie Collins etc.. as the greatest writers of their (our) time.

what.

EtA: I apparently missed nancy777ca's latest entry, wherein she basically repeats herself [c]ause the wordiness didn't seem to be working for all those who are such high brow classical enthusiasts.

EtA2: A HA. I have been led to at least some of the beginning of the wank, via myalchod: nancy777ca thinks smut is about character. She likes the phrase 'snobby cows'.

EtA3: The "fic" and reviews that apparently started the ball rolling. Badfic warning ahoy!

11:24am: Fanficrants: Love/Hate Pairing Mini-wank
A poster by the name of shazarazade drops in on fanficrants and begins letting everyone know that s/he doesn't like some sort of Final Fantasy IV pairing that is (apparently) a love/hate relationship. The post seems to irritate the usual readers of fanficrants--probably because it comes off rather condescending.

Complete with the usual comments like "Don't like, don't read" and "fanfiction is fantasy."

And the best part: mergle rushing to his/her pal's aide. Note that mergle says "I think I know who this is..." yet the OP has s/h/it defined as a friend.

62 comments and still growing strong.

EDIT
Codes fixed.

2:50pm: Wank in the Mix
It seems not all is well in Britney Spears land..
Not only has her husband kentucky fried whatever transformed into a party-cracker rather than a dad. The hyped launch-party of her new Remix album seems to have flopped as well.

Naturally it all starts over at the beloved Oh no they didnt community.
Here diosabellissima places a nice entry about the fact that the release party was totally lame.

The party itself was meant to be an exclusive release party for Britney fans, where they could celebrate the fact the the remix album came out. You had to be placed on an guestlist and needed to be over 18 and pay the $10 entry fee. It was organised mainly by the owner of World of Britney aka Ruben, and he had some help from Britney herself (who put some money in it) and her label. All in all it was so exclusive that instead of 500 only 230 people showed up and left after awhile. While the party was taking place people were entertained with some autographed prices they could win, some lame goodies that they could get, and by seeing shows by her own dancers and the drag performers doing their own britney thing.
Let's not forget that the Mc of the onyx tour was there along with Britney's brother. WoW!

So the writer wasn't very impressed by all of this and thus posts the entry. It gets picked up by a britney forum and people start commenting that this was to be expected since Rube organised it. It seems that poor Ruben isn't very popular in Britney fan land.

Naturally Ruben lashes back in true style;
"LOL...how SAD.

One girl doesn't get what she expects out of the party, writes it on a journal, and everyone uses that as fuel to bring the party down. Nice ! Britney doesn't deserve to have fans as some of you guys here....you seem to be a bunch of ungrateful losers sitting around infront of your computers thinking that you deserve to be given something, anything.

If Britney wouldn't have paid for this party, it would never have happened. For this to be a "fan inspired" event, the amount of official Britney crew that was there and was gathered was far beyond anything that was expected. The problem with you all is that you expect too much. You shouldn't...mainly because you don't even deserve it.

The party was a total success.....people had an amazing time and that's what it was all about. A lot of work went into it, and I am laughing at those that are in denial, or think that it flopped. If I haven't mentioned anything on WoB it's because I don't have to, and I took some days off...

Jive had nothing to do with this party, it was all me, Dan and Britney....and those 3 names are gonna continue popping up in the future, to your dismay.....and to my grin. I expected someone to come out and trash the event....just like anything Britney does gets trashed, including her last tour....but that's why most of you will never ever be able to get any closer to Britney than your computer screens.....so, ROCK ON !

-Ruben"

And we are off...
The forum where dragqueens are being slagged off, many vibrator comments are made and where Ruben and some minions show off why he isn'that popular.

Another Group where it is clear that she wasn't the only one who wasn't too happy about the event.

And than Ruben's my space which is very interesting to tell us why he loves britney so much

It seems to be starting up now..
