Some deviantArt wank!
Happy Thanksgiving, JF Americans! Have a little wanky appetizer before your meal.

dA user justflyakite creates a stamp reading "I support OCs," and calls out fanartists in the Artist Comments for being "uncreative."

The internet proceeds to break in half.

The usual "original vs. fan-created" debates rage on and on in the 5+ pages of comments. User Fenris-of-bloodmoon, for example, argues that fanart can be "creative and imaginative," while original characters are "unoriginal, and the most boring and typical of creations around the net."

Meanwhile, the creator of the stamp causes some bonus fandom-related wank when s/he states that s/he "hates KH," and spurs on the age old "why can't Axel and Roxas just be FRIENDS?" debate.

Predictable, but always a classic.

It cracks me up because I think of the little paper clip in Microsoft Word.

"I see you're on a 'RAWR I HATE FANART' rampage! Would you like help? :D"

"You seem to be using CAPSLOCK OF RAGE! Did you know you can also establish this with formatting?"
