FFR is at it again!
My first wank, spank me if I get this all wrong.

So over at [info]fanficrants, [info]lejindary decides that 80% of fanfiction is complete drivel and the other 20% is masturbation on paper. [info]lejindary goes on to argue that fanfiction is practically pointless, because *gasp* you can’t make money off of it. [info]fanficrants does its usual and wanksplodes.

Edit: [info]lejindary wants FFR to know how awesome it is to be on Fandom Wank.

Edit the Second: But wait, there's more! [info]lejindary is here to tell Fandom Wank the awesomeness of being on Fandom Wank.

Edit the Third: [info]lejindary has deleted her account over at eljay.

Its the equivalent of playing with barbies and saying you're writing a movie script.

I've seen stranger things on Youtube.

I'm sure that's not right, I would have said 70/30. She is seriously underestimating the amount of porn on the internet.

Ahhh. Sweet FFR wanks! Every one a classic.

The OP had me at;

"When it gets right down to it, fanfiction is not only pointless, its destructive. 80 percent of it is complete drivel with not the slightest grasp of narrtive, characterizing or even spelling or grammer."

That's some good old fashioned WANK.

I must admit... "channeling Shakespeare's monkeys" would make a great subtitle for a fic comm. Maybe it should even be my subtitle at LJ! Nah, I try to avoid the wank there. Maybe I'll make it the title of my journal here. Yeah. Fernwithy, channeling Shakespeare's monkeys since 1984.

Congratulations. You noticed that writing fanfiction is almost always a hobby and thus, by definition, pointless. That is, well, the point of a hobby.

I mean...duh. What's next? "Omg putting colors on paper is so...so pointless!11". Yeah. It is. But it's fun. o.O;

Well, yes, but that's what we like about it.

The only way to improve it is to have it be 80% porn and 20% complete drivel.

Aww, it's wanks like this, one of the most basic wanks in fandom, that make me smile at the silliness of it all.
Thank you fandom_wank. You are one of my favorite sites now, along with bad_penny because reading about wanks is the best guilty pleasure.

I always thought most fanfic, these days, was mastrubation on pixels, unless you printed it out.

Sure, back in the zine days, maybe it was paper, but...

I saw that bait ... and resisted the call.

I pat myself on the back for my self-restraint in not feeding the troll -- except I kinda am here aren't I.

Troll or not, s/h/it should not be taking things out on a 14-year old (who doesn't let the troll bother her).

[info]lejindary (in response to the 14-year old's comment):
You're 14. therefore your opinion dosn't count. Do you know how many times you're going to chnage it before you become a functioning human being?

[info]fugacious_love replies back:
Excuse me...but maybe you should consider writing more fanfiction. It'll give you practice with your spelling- "dosn't" and "chnage" are not words in the English language. Maybe in the troll language, though.

Yes, even this very moronic, half-formed 14-year-old human being knew that.
