Mock. Mockmockmock. Mockity-mock-mock

10:16am: Shipping = serious business .... take 1.000.000.000.000 in the HP-fandom
From mousie on wank_report.

prongssr is ”sick of the hypocrisy and the repetitions of ”We just don't like Ginny because she is undeveloped, mean, and spiteful”. and states that people saying: People who hate Ginny don't hate her because of shipping are WRONG, WRONG, WRONG!!!!

( Beware! Shipping inside. )
ETA: Fixed the embarrassing misspelling of wank_report
ETA-ETA: prongssr is made aware of the FW-post by gilyann.

gilyann: "This are the people who think that are so high above everyone else that they get to determined what is right or wrong. In other words they are quickly becoming the bullies of fanon."

"I have long gotten the point of why Harmonians are freaking tired of the shit. Sure we all talked about the oppossing ship or shippers in our LJ's locked entries. I'm not going to lie and say that I don't comment on them, because me, you and the entire world is going to know that I'm lying. But the harping on everyone's life is just freaky already! Don't people have a life? Isn't this whole damn thing a fucking damn HOBBY FOR FUCKS SAKE!!! Why the fuck do people take this shit so fucking serious!"

"I know fredom of speach was created if they don't like it all that they have to do is ignore it."

And last but not least, my own personal favourite "So freedom of speech gave FW the right to humilate people and act like they are better than the rest of us.". Now, it might just be me interrogating the text from the wrong perspective, but it's alright for FW to mock Harmonians, but we're being unfair and ZOMG-opress0rz when it's about someone else?

ETA-ETA-ETA: Mousie with attitude shows up to blame estrella (yeah... I've got nothing.) and explain what gilyann really meant.

5:17pm: Straight man hangs out on slash-friendly forums, feels oppressed. Film at 11!
Continuing its wanky adolescence, we have another up from fanficrants:

_bowles_ makes a post bemoaning how few men there are in fandom and how female-dominated it is. His example of why this sucks?

"It kind of kills half the discussions I have on forums. "Oh, well, you know, Hermione could just be going through that time of the month... Ooh, maybe she's pregnant! That happened when I was pregnant!""

Kind of a shame he obviously didn't run this past a woman who could have told him how well that was gonna go down. (Later on he edited in "For me" at the suggestion of someone in the comments.)

While a few people agree (leading to some microwank about how addressing a general audience as "girls" is unacceptable), things heat up pretty quickly, mostly because _bowles_ tries to recant the pregnancy thing, and cereta & sparcck take offense.

Best exchange:

codfishbunny: "I'm having problems feeling sympathetic towards your plight; would you like a mint instead?"

_bowles_: "Fair enough, I don't think I was honestly expecting any sympathy.

*vows to never speak mind again*"

codfishbunny: "While I appreciate your determination in employing out-of-work tiny-violin players, you're not getting another mint."

Most wtf? comment:

samuraiter: "In the mid-1990s, when the Internet was young and modern fanfic was finding its feet in the age of small, decentralized archives, the majority of 'ficcers were college-age males, though there was a strong female minority. ... Of course, the shoe is now on the other foot."

Not as wanky as it could have gone, because the OP was more of an idiot than a troll, but still with some nice splooge.

10:33pm: Ur icon is FUGLY - WTF_INC
WTF_INC; WTF at it again. Pointed out by a kind Mouse on wank_report

frehel posts a picture of Chyna, and proclaims it as proof that she (Chyna) was once a he.

Things go ok at first. Some posters question who Chyna is, and others respond with completely incomprehensible internet speak.

Enter poonariffic. She finds the post 'funny considering how fugly the OP’s icon is'.

That alone might cause a stir, but luck would have it that said icon actually happens to be a picture of the OP. Of course wank ensues.

( Some of the funny )

Small, but entertaining.
