Mock. Mockmockmock. Mockity-mock-mock

1:13am: Holy Crusaders to End Ghost Slash, Part Two
"Danny Phantom" is a weird fandom in that a significant portion of the fandom (the slashers and the not-slashers-but-slash-friendly, known as the "anti-fans") is actively discriminated against by the shows creator, Butch Hartman. Or, at least, its actively discriminated against by Hartman's mod squad and other rabid fangirls who claim that slashers are why the show is getting canceled- Nickelodean has to yank the plug on the p0rn!

I would fall into the category of anti-fan (I don't just slash, baby- I write, draw, and apparently inspire "Danny Phantom" MPreg) if I bothered to give a shit. I've managed to avoid the wank entirely with little effort because I've never bothered with Hartman's forums and am mostly unknown on deviantArt. However, I seem to be the only person on the LiveJournal "Danny Phantom" community that also has a JournalFen account, so consider me an acting liaison for the anti-fans. The rest of this entry was written by happy_coffetea. I merely pass it along to you and gleefully accept any splooge that may splash onto me for doing so.

As most of this wank takes place on DeviantART, the links provided will either be to individual wanky comments or photobucket pictures of longer threads.

Brevity may be the soul of wit, but the sheer amount of wank here makes a short recap impossible.

( And a whiney plea )

3:22am: scans_daily: Bringing the batshit since December 2003
Thanks to the impassioned ETA plea of the OP, this seems to have calmed down a bit, but contains such gems as to be worth sharing with the world.

Over on our old friend Scans_Daily, it's time to do that thing it does again. No, not that thing. No, not that other thing. Yeah, that thing. The one where people bitch about the slash.

doctorv makes a post of scans from Superman: Day Of Doom. Was the fact she put "Doom" in all caps in her subject line prescient or just coincidence? Who knows. But despite the billion and one previous posts of Blue Beetle/Booster Gold slash squeeage, a couple fairly tame Boostle mentions lead to a certain agentoneal getting mad as hell and not gonna take it anymore:

"You know... Booster and Beetle were never lovers, and to tell you the truth, it sort of upsets me that you'd think that. I mean come on. A guy can't have a best friend without being his lover too?"

It's S_D. You know they weren't just going to casually overlook something like that, right?

( Tortured metaphors, communism, dragging in other hot-button topics, and manatees. All in a day's wank. )

4:50pm: Don't you dare call me 'strumpet,' you dirty, ugly son of a bitca
Thanks, mousey on wank_report!

Over on fanficrants and , vain_chan writes a really long letter to the plagiarist roninoath, detailing the many times (and many fics) this person plagiarized. More of the story is here, and here. Most of the reactions are in her favor; roninoath, after deleting her LJ, even apologizes. So, everything's sooo good, right? Haha, of course not!

When sharz expresses his/her condolences s/he also adds: "...But lets stay objective before we start with the abuse. It's just fanfiction, not an academic essay, it's done for fun, not point getting too worked up about it; it's not worth anyones effort to let a uncreative, dishonest person make us angry." ( Aaaaannnnd wank. )

11:40pm: Star Wars wank never dies; it just ascends into the Force.
Over on El-Jay's starwars community, thishollowhill crawls out from underneath his/her rock long enough to proclaim hatred for George Lucas' decision to Photoshop Hayden Christensen's head into the last few frames of "Return of the Jedi" on the super-special-limited-edition-I'm-totally-fucking-serious-here-buy-them-now-or-Lucas-is-gonna-kidnap-your-mother-and-run-over-your-dog DVDs of the Original Trilogy.

Wank, as it inevitably will, ensues. Meanwhile, Sebastian Shaw glances down in the middle of the naked poker game he's playing with Sir Alec Guinness, and goes, "who the fuck cares?"
