FFR/Wank = OTP!
Yep, our friendly neighborhood [info]fanficrants is up to no good...again!

[info]elle_s_shadow is sick of het shippers bitching about how Harry/Draco isn't canon when their OTP isn't canon either (specifically Draco/Ginny, Draco/Hermione, Harry/Hermione shippers). The responses start out fairly nice, until [info]incitata begs to differ, and tells [info]elle_s_shadow to kindly STFU.

And just when things couldn't get worse, [info]swedish15 takes offense to [info]elle_s_shadow's generalizations on het shippers.


[info]swedish15: "Congrats. I understand your point. Yet somehow, you manage to generalize too much and you include rather harmless people in your rant. That hurts. Thanks a lot."
[info]elle_s_shadow: "Oh PUHPLEASE. Like I was targeting you. *eyeroll* Get real.

I never said all het-fans were. My point, which you seem to have missed, was that YOUR subtext is no more canon that MY subtext.

And no. Harry/Hermione isn't less OOC. It TOTALLY depends on how its written. There can be h/Hr fics writen like crap, totoally ooc, and there can be h/hr fics written in character and beleivable and perfect. THE SAME GOES FOR ALL PAIRINGS."

[info]windtear: "Just because we weren't your primary target doesn't mean you didn't hit us. And it doesn't mean it didn't hurt.

I understand and accept your point, that your pairing is as valid as ours. Now please understand ours: Generalisations include all people within the generalised classification, and saying "Oh, I didn't mean you!" doesn't negate your initial generalisation or our inclusion within it.



A bit small now, but it has loads of potential.

I remember where I've seen [info]incitata before--she got otf_wank'ed the other week along with a particularly tenacious wanker whose name I won't mention.

It's also almost...endearing to see someone answer "So what are your thoughts on yaoi?" as if it were a serious question.

All this blanket judging that a noncanon pairing is automatically OOC (because the creator didn't have them boinking like bunnies for us all to see) gives me a headache.

Oh, alas, alas for the poor het-shippers! Some random person on the Internet may have mildly insulted them on accident! The poor dears, how ever shall they heal from such a wound?

It amazes me that people seem to expect rationality in a community with the word "rant" in the title.

People go there because something has them in a fandom tizzy and they need to bitch. That pretty much tells me I'm going to see a lot of freaking out for no reasons.

You can't argue with someone who's ranting. I could see if the community was fandom_petpeeves, where the point was to rationalize things out, but it's a rant community.

And yeah, what I just wrote was wanky as hell.

I love how everyone keeps trying to deny that there will be wank.

"Wank? Uhuh. Not here. I don't see it." "There's nothing wanky about this post!"

Almost makes me wonder if there's a Somebody Else's Problem field around the wanky comments.

Yet somehow, you manage to generalize too much and you include rather harmless people in your rant. That hurts. Thanks a lot.

When are people going to realize that the internet is serious business? You can't just go around sort of insulting people's OTPs. It's like kicking a puppy.

Yo het-shippers.

I don't want to hear you bitch to me about how Harry/Draco isn't canon, or is OOC.

If you hadn't noticed... your Draco/Ginny, Draco/Hermione, Harry/Hermione, and etc. ISN'T CANON EITHER.


I'm trying not to wank about the implied assumption that het shippers only have ships that are as uncanon as the ones listed, but it's difficult to sit on my hands.

Is it just me or was [info]incitata inplying that gay = OOC? Because I'm pretty sure that catching the gay wouldn't have a dramatic effect on a person's character.

Urgh, [info]incitata makes me crazy with the dissecting of posts sentence-by-sentence. I can see it being a useful idea if you want to point out a specific part of a passage somewhere but the WHOLE POST? It's like when they teach you a new language and insist that when you answer a question like "Do you like butter?" you have to say "Yes, I like butter," and not just "Yeah."
