Fail mods are failing

[info]sepiamagpie
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.

Millyfan posts to fanficrants about her newest brain-child, a comm called un-het, with the following:

megalomaniageek gets the ball rolling by suggesting millyfan is misogynist.

But the real fun gets started when millyfan says that Meryl leaving her job to follow Vash is a heteronormative clichée.

akusai tells her to quit with the PC campaign.

megalomaniageek suggests that "writing a character canonically sometimes requires stepping off the soapbox and being a 'bad' role model".

This makes millyfan blow a gasket and become the pompous windbag we all know and despise love. Of course, she MEANT to be an asshat say it like that in order to trap those terrible fanon-over-canon people.
