Comicfic is positively RIPE with wank, did you know?
For instance, take this guy. He is so wanky (in the classic sense of self-obliviously righteous pseudo-intellectual wankery, which is my favorite kind!) that there was once a journal devoted specifically to parodying his posts. (Yes, Wank Will Eat Itself!) He is like a volcano of wank. He lies deceptively dormant for aeons, and then BOOM there goes Pompeii. Worth waiting for, really.
Anyhow, observe the latest. I would summarize this as "I write fanfic and I regularly attend out-of-country fanfic conventions and a good portion of my life revolves around other fanficcers BUT I AM NOT A FEEELTHY 'FAN' -- I am an ARTISTE, god damn it, and though you slope-browed troglodytes may have Friended my journal you are not sapient enough to comprehend the difference. Feh. Feh, I say. Please argue with me, I'm not done being superior yet."
And then FritoKal weighs in and, uh, my eyes started bleeding at about that point, so I'll let somebody else tackle that. But do NOT let her distract you! Do not lose sight of the original wank: "I'm not a fan (despite mountains of evidence to the contrary) because fans suck and I'm really quite impossibly cool." Try to get your brain around that. I'm still trying. Guess I'm a troglodyte. Ook.
(EDIT: Whoops! I've just been told that at least one of that unholy brood monitors F_W, so expect incoming haughty rebuttal in five...four...three...)
