God, I love Libertines fangirls. No, REALLY.
Take one Band (Libertines, most specifically) RPS comm, complete with batshit insane fangirls who kinda make my head hurt, as a rule.

Add lasarus, who is either a VERY EFFECTIVE troll or a very confused newbie.

Lasarus starts with a post of a slashy HIM pic.

And, oh, she is punished. Over 30 comments.

And then she tries again.

Troll or newbie, in either case she's currently thrown the comm into an absolute tizzy on levels not even reached by the revealing of Pete Doherty's penis. Completely unrelated posts refer it, and no one seems to get the idea of 'Do not feed the energy creature'. (NOTE: I comment on this post. But it was mostly out of amusement at seeing someone using an icon I made back when I was crap at the icon thing.)

God Bless fangirls. Really. I mean it.

I was almost hoping for an effective troll, but the apparantly sincere noob apology killed that hope. I swear, you would think that the pictures had the ability to slice and dice their poor little eyeballs.

Fangirls are funny. Especially when they say "no no, we are IRONIC fangirls!!!" Is there such a thing as ironic fangirls?

The problem with being an ironic fangirl is that you don't stay ironic for very long. One moment, you're saying "omg" as a joke, the next, you're saying "OMG!!!" and being dead serious about it.

It's a slippery slope.

I'm saddened by the HIM picture. It's not even really all that slashy, and Ville's got plenty of groping-random-men pictures.

But I do enjoy the good "NO MY RANDOM INSERT-GENRE BAND IS BETTER THAN YOUR RANDOM INSERT-GENRE BAND" fight going on the comments.

...HIM?

Is that like "you know who" or is the fact that I haven't listened to popular radio in about 10 yeears showing again?

HIM is short for His Infernal Majesty (supposedly). They're a band from Finland, especially popular among melodramatic teenagers. In the past couple of years, they've gotten a bit of a fanbase in North America, mostly thanks to Bam Margera of Jackass fame who is the most obsessive fangirl ever.

They're basically a boyband for goth teens, with Hot Lead Singer, Hot Lead Guitarist, Vaguely Attractive Keyboardist, Not Hot Bass Player and Fat Guy On Drums. Main site is here, and you can listen to some of their gothtastic stylings under Music.

I had hardly noticed. Was a sort of pass and go kind of thing.

And just to add for anyone who is not in the Libs fandom; It's one big joke, nothing serious.

HIM's decent, they're not bad compared to some of those bands people love. I'm just too amused by all this, because it's a bunch of people who like slashing band members (constantly, to the point that it makes me wonder if they even like the band for their music) dissing someone who likes a different type of music. In fact, their main bug seems to be the fact that they think HIM is bad and all image - RPS folks getting upset about someone liking someone all image? xDD

RPS is funny. Why can't there be ironic fangirls? Maybe it's the term... I see a fangirl as any female who, well, is obsessed with some fandom. But quite a few of them are highly intellegent beings; perhaps are you referring to a different type of fangirl?

I feel bad for the new person. That user info was pretty vague about what acceptable bands are, and the reactions were just...weird. It's not like the girl posted a pic from Mariah Carey's last gyno visit.

I'm disappointed that Lasarus didn't post that nude David Hasselhoff & puppies pic. Nothing is more disturbing than that.

I'm so proud; my homeboys have brought teh wank! Go HIM!

Sure it was off-topic for the comm, but HOLY MOTHER OF ALL THINGS HOLY, what overreaction. It reminds me of those Band Wars in grade school, when everyone had their favourites and the rival was O SO CRAP. The sad part was that the choices were NKOTB and Take That or something.

Is it okay to hate HIM with a virulent passion, but still laugh at all the fangirls having seizures after looking at a picture of them?

They are being entirely over dramatic. I mean if you don't like the picture then scroll past them. Unless something is horrorifically wrong with your scroll bar it's hardly the huge dilemma they portray it to be. But ignoring the pics would make life in fandom all to reasonable and logical. And then what would we be here for?

Now I remember why I generally keep to my flist and albion_fic porn posts by people I know these days.

I mean, I'm as fixated on Pete's cock as the next person, but only in a context of 'Carl' and 'sucking'. Not the irritating 'eeeew omg a NASTY PENIS!!!!111' way most of the posts and comments seem to be.

Bah. Stop being on my side, teenies! You're really making my side look bad.

Heh, I haven't been around here for ages, not since I was embroiled in the extreme wankiness of LoTR fandom at its height (good times...). And then I see a link to this post on albion_fic. Ah, all roads lead to fandom_wank. Well, at least as long as the world is full of excitable fangirls.
