: Tag war on Tumblr
Many thanks to the anon on wank_report for this. I’ve used your wording in this post and added a couple of things of my own.
Korean boy band SHINee announces that they're having a comeback, with a new mini-album called, for whatever reason, "Sherlock". Pictures are released.
Excited K-Pop fans take to their tumblrs! Many reblogs are made of the teaser pictures and tracks (examples here, here and here).

Then both fandoms blink in confusion as a random troll appears and spams the Sherlock tags with gay porn:

* First..the Shawols tagged everything ”Sherlock”
then the sherlockians got mad
…
but now there’s a penis
Just another day in the SHINee World
* OMGAWD! MAKE THE RANDOM PENISES STOP! I just saw one with a watch on it. o.O?
* Just so the Sherlockians know, it isn’t SHINee fans spamming penises, okay?
* lol awks when the SHINee fandom and Sherlock fandom are having a war over the Sherlock tag then some random bitch starts posting penis in the tag.
TaemintWaffle sums up the conflict pretty succinctly in GIF form here (very image heavy post).
And of course kyuhynsass does the logical thing and writes crossover porn.
And manips crop up, too.
