This Week's Theme: Squicks

Jun 26, 2010 22:59

First off, apologies to everyone for forgetting to post a theme yesterday;

Everyone has squicks, even those of us who are open to almost anything. Many of us also have things we thought we could never tolerate that turned out to be wonderful.

So, this week, your hpthemes mods are asking for:

SQUICKSYes, we want you to recommend stories you never ( Read more... )

Hey, BB - do you know whether this is available anywhere that doesn't require a password?

PS- I've added a little disclaimer to all the "squick" contributions, FYI:

MOD NOTE: Works marked "Squick" are stories members have liked DESPITE the squick in question. "Subtheme:squick" is not meant to replace author's warnings. Please heed those.

Thought I'd let you know, per our conversation over the summer.

Good idea about the "Squicks" theme. My biggest concern is non-con/dub-con but I'm sure there are plenty of people who have other things they wish to be forewarned about.

Yeah - you can't see it unless you're logged in, which is why I was asking if you knew of another posting of it.

Re: Squicks/Warnings - I know. But I don't want to end up having to add thirty tags to each entry in order to warn (or be liable if we miss a warning), so I figure the disclaimer every time someone clicks on "squick" should suffice; I wish there were a way to post a general disclaimer on the top of the page, but we do what we can.

And yeah, I just logged five or six fics for bestiality. Yum.

I have this week off, so I'm trying to get the comm stuff up to where we've been saying we want it to be since May.

I didn't reply to this at first mostly because I'm not sure the following are relevant. They do contain things commonly considered 'squicks' but not necessarily things that were my squicks (although they might. Foodsex is one of my biggest ones and I've developed a tendancy to skim if the story is interesting enough)- the only fic I had that fully qualified is sadly no longer available on the web anywhere so there's not much point in including it, but as there hasn't been a new theme posting I'm assuming you still want more for this one so here goes ( ... )
