The Doctor Who fandom. Eating its own young since 1963.

You know, after reading through quite a lot of the latest who_anon meme, I think I can safely say two things

Comments

[sterre]

God, those places don't make any kind of sense to me.

[msgenevieve]

An anon meme filled with people who hate each other's guts? Yeah, no surprises about how it turned out. And to think SPN and Harry Potter get called the wanky fandoms, lol!

[chapter_stork]

Um, "thanks" for the link. I could feel my brain shrinking with each passing second I was there. *g*

[msgenevieve]

Hee, icon!

Sorry about the brain shrinkage. *g*

Without looking at the meme, I'm going to have to defend the usage of "fen", which has a long and honorable fannish history. Even if people are using it stupidly in an anonymous hate meme.

[msgenevieve]

Oh, but I like the word 'fen'. To tell you the truth, it always reminds me of you. Heh.

It's because they are, as you suggested, using it stupidly and waaaay too much. Rosefen. Marthafen. Romanafen. Fenfen.

Okay, so I made that last one up, but you get the idea.

Ick, another anon meme again? That's exactly the sort of thing this fandom doesn't need at the moment.

[msgenevieve]

Yes, sadly. Filled with the usual DW anon meme things that will come as no surprise to you whatsoever, lol! I'm very happy to be watching from the outside these days, I must say, but I can never resist reading a juicy anon meme. Human nature and all. *g*

[misscam]

I think I've heard just about every bitching there is out there by now. Tends to be fairly predictable.

Really, after the last one I'm not that particulary keen to see ragging on all topics all over again.

[angelicus]

The DW fandom, to me, resembles the Harry Potter fandom. Probably because it's been around so long, there's been a lot of time to build up hatred for other people? Those folks frighten me.

[msgenevieve]

There's no grudge too old that it can't be brought up, yes?
