I couldn't care less about the Merlin stories you recced, as I don't read Merlin fics and never watched that show. I couldn't care less who you rec as long as their fiction is interesting and I certainly don't want you to rec my stories, because they don't exist, and even if they did, I wouldn't want you to do it. Why should I care if you rec'ed me or didn't? This seems a bit self-important of you.
I don't write fanfiction but I like reading it, and since your blog is one of the most frequently updated on livejournal in Star Trek fandom(and that's fucking sad, isn't it? Star Trek fandom has been dead lately), I liked to read whatever you had to say.
I used to enjoy your blog and your recs, but lately they have become increasingly like mutual flattery, which I despise. In a sense, I understand you. Your friends probably would have been offended if you didn't mention them, but from a reader's point of view it's very frustrating. Lately I rely on other people's recs too much, because I don't have time to read everything. As a result, I wasted my time reading those stories and, while they weren't bad, they were nothing to write home about and I could have spent my time on something else. Your blog and your recs used to be much more interesting. Now it seems to be all about flattering friends, which I've always found pathetic.
It's just my opinion. If you can't handle an honest opinion, as opposed to flattery, it's your problem, not mine. If you think I have to have a user name for my opinion to become an Opinion, whatever. I have nothing more to say to you. I'm kind of diapppointed with your attitude, but you probably don't care, as I'm not your 'friend.'
Hm. I think self-important is the right word. I also think entitled is fitting. Most importantly though, I think you're confusing me with a coffeeshop barista who mixed you the wrong drink.
To use small words, I'm not your servant, darling. I am not, nor have I ever been under any sort of obligation to entertain you or cater to your tastes. I suggest you take your time to think about that before you go on accusing random people of not being the way you want them to be or the world spinning in the wrong direction.
The stories I rec aren't bad just because you didn't like them. See that self-importance come into play, yeah?
Any further wank will be immediately deleted. Have a nice day.
"Ha ha, no offense, you write OK and that's why I hang out here. I mean, you're not my favourite or anything, but you'll do in a pinch, since there isn't anything else available. I just wish you had the same taste as me. Also, stop making friends with people whose fiction you enjoy, it makes your future recs look suspect."
By that logic, we can't be friends anymore, kianspo. I might get the urge to rec one of your stories and then where would we be?
BB, DO WHAT YOU MUST. FANDOM NEEDS YOU TO BE STRONG.
Also, since everytime I turn on my ipad your Stubbly Plague Doctor Bones gives me joygasms, it's only fair that we do a MUTUAL INTEGRITY SAVING defriending before we rec.
This is absolutely beautiful. Nothing like a spot of wank to brighten a day. You are glorious, bb! GLORIOUS! I give your responses 5 out of 5 stars. *happy sigh*
OH GOD, I'm so happy than that I don't read your fics unless you shamefully trick me into doing so. I might've liked them. And then I'd have to unfriend you and I can't do that because I'd have to give back the smurfastic cookie and I HAVE ALREADY EATEN IT.
well there is always crazy people in this world! i wonder if she notice, that this is your journal and not a community or something???
and since the writers and artist from this circle are all friends and we like and respect each other how can't you don't rec the things your colleges and friends do?? specially when you like what they done, and in this fandom we have writers, real writers material!
i know i never get rec, but i'm not a jealous looser! i know that i have a long way to run in this language, but i will do it!!!
and that, my friends, is the sound of anon's hilariously self-entitled wanky arse hitting the inside of the dumpster.
kee-rist. some people are just a waste of space and oxygen. if only anon had a ball-sack I could express the sentiment more directly. ah well, xe's post was good for a laugh, for a microt or two.
pity it wasn't on paper though -- then I could've wiped me arse with it, which would've been just about perfect. *shakes his head at the wonder of it all*
