Wank eats itself!
I don't even know how to begin to classify this one.

It starts when I decide to metaquote a previous wank.

Cue the wank that wanks itself.

"Slash is any non-canon pairing!"

And a joke completely misses its mark...

...leading to fanfic envy. (Oh, my mistake-- she doesn't resent fanfic, she's just a fan of originality.)

And what fanfic wank is complete without "It's lame, so why bother?"

And there I am in the middle of all of it, trying desperately to keep up.

Would've posted this to [info]i_wank, but I fully expect to receive my fair share of the mocking. Mock away! ::dons flame-retardant suit::

I_Wank is not to avoid mocking, it's to avoid people posting their own wanking to F_W and seeming proud of it here.
... Y'know, exactly like this?

I'm not proud... I'm just confused. And somewhat sheepish.

Addendum, from the [info]i_wank user info:

Was someone bitchy and mean to you? Did you flame them with great flames? Are you afraid that if you post at fandom_wank the shit-slinging cunts who reside therein will mock you?

As I didn't feel this fit the criteria, I made an executive decision. Disagree? Mock.

Sigh. Well, the whole thing seemed rather more ridiculous to me this morning. Now....

I suppose I'll just slink off with my tail between my legs now. Ah well, I tried.

There, there. It was a amusingly WTF-y if not especially wanky. Happens to the best of us. Well, not to me, but you know.

Hell I'd call it wanky. Since, ya know, people were being continually really fucking stupid and not acknowledging it, in typical wanker fashion.

Seriously, where in hell are all these "slash is any non-canon pairing" people COMING from? I mean I know that was the original definition, but I thought it was rather clear that the definition had changed through usage. Not to mention the freaking blatant references to gay and lesbian relationships on the hatelisting page in the first place.

I'm not sure it ever was the original definition, given that i have some fairly old (to me, anyway) Blake's 7 zines with "(/)" written next to the titles of slashfics, so you could either skip them or page straight to them as your fancy took you.

Or in my case, whinge about the lack of f/f.

Hah, I feel vindicated, because I had always heard that the term came from Kirk/Spock fics, which obviously would me a same sex relationship on top of being non-canon, and then there was all this wanking about it being just non-canon pairings and I figured it had been a definition that morphed. People are dumb, must remember this.
