Dearest, beloved, Fandom Wank.

I know you were looking forward to great excitement today. Some of you said words to me that indicated you anticipated fiery 'judgement' upon those who remained fresh and dewey white, those you call n00bs.

Anyway, you got today instead.

Stop anticipating things, we'll just break your hearts.

Sincerely,

Sepia P. Magpie, Esq.



PS: Use this post to reflect on how you could be better people. Or just fuck around in the comments.

Moved from clairvoyantwank, with a couple of additions.


It starts off when lady_peyton's response to The Organisation for Transformative Works, or OTW, is linked to metafandom.

Then elfwreck appears here, to make a comparison between the rights of gay people to get married and fanfic writers to publish fics on the internet. Many of the commentors are...rather bemused.

(Note: I did comment on this entry, but I didn't say anything to Elfwreck and I don't think I was being wanky.)

Later on, elfwreck pops up on Insanejournal's meta_roundup community, with her...you guessed it,'Fanfic is like gay marriage' meta. Some agree; others (such as aucta_sinistra) politely disagree.

ETA: Bahleeted and replaced by this message at both her Insanejournal and Livejournal. However, most of the wank is on other people's journals.

limyaael mentions in the comments to the clairvoyantwank report that elfwreck had appeared from nowhere in her Journalfen to comment all over an anti-OTW post, which prompts pyratejenni to call elfwreck the new Heidipatrol for OTW.

Then partly_bouncy appears in the metafandom comments with links to both elfwreck lj's post (ah, the joys of x-posting) and liz_marcs, who is not happy with elfwreck. elfwreck appears in the comments, and the teal deer spooge erupts.

Edit: elfwreck appears in the comments here.
