You guys, you know that I love you right? We've had some good times plotting and shipping together, but things are starting to get a little out of control and I feel like I have to say something.

This isn't about you, dear. It's mostly about what I'm seeing on Tumblr. What a fucking pit of voles that place is. Ugh.

ahaha ok because I just put something up on my journal that I thought you may have seen.

Am I the only person that doesn't see this on tumblr? Seriously, I must have blinders on or something.

Also on fandom secrets over the last few weeks.

But yeah, I think it's in the notes when people were retumblering (or whatever the fuck its called) one of the most recent letters from the creators.

This generation is entitled and I'm so sick of it.

I kinda wanted to reblog where Bryan said Azula is Lin's father, but I don't have to tell you why.

The Bioware fandom is no different. 30-somethings bitching about the ending in Mass Effect 3 to the point that Bioware MADE THEM A NEW DLC EXPLAINING THINGS THAT THEY WERE TOO DUMB TO GET AND DIDN'T CHARGE THEM FOR IT. It's this whole culture. Every fandom thinks the creators owe them something, when in actuality, the fandom should just be grateful to what they've had created for them to enjoy. I feel like I'm alone in this. I can see I'm not.
