I hate people!

I'm sure as fuck gonna butt in here. If she was just RPF, I'd have shrugged it off, but if she's accepting of the "My night with Michael Stipe" stories and yet calls the RPS evil and disrespectful, I'm going to speak up. I know a homophobe when I see one, and the fact that she's an R.E.M. fan boggles my brain. I just need to calm down, because I want to be coherent and precise and sharp and not frothing at the mouth.

Am quite sure will nevertheless end up saying things like "if the tought of m/m action upsets you so much, you may want to consider finding yourself a new group to be fan of, sweetheart" and "it is not our job to make the internet safe and inoffensive for anyone, not even celebrities!"

Not to mention...

Someone in there ranted about something to the effect of "presenting these things as though they actually happened." Hello? I don't know of ONE instance of fanfic, RPS or otherwise, where it was presented as fact. Not one. *rolls eyes*

Somehow, I managed to miss that in the haze of red my vision because after that chick used a JMS-quote to 'prove her point'. So now she can read R.E.M.'s mind and decide that the things they were hurt about was the fanfic? Jeez.

Plus, considering R.E.M.slash is only a few months old and that quote is prolly older, ...

It is. He was talking about things that happened years before (the quote's from the recent MSN chat, but he was talking about four, five years ago). And yeah, REM slash has only been around for a few months. And if indeed he did throw his computer out the window (silly Michael *g*), that means he, the most technologically-active of any of them, hasn't seen it. So her argument's full of shit anyway.

Maybe he just wanted to see if it (the computer) could fly? :D

It's not even that she thinks it's badevil and wrong. It's just that she's such a goddamn evil bitch about it. I can deal with people thinking I'm wrong and perverted. I don't like it when people take the time to post that, in disgusting flaming language, to a public forum, then, weeks later, when the thread's almost dead, revive it with what is essentially the same post. Moron. [her, not you :)]

Well, two can play that game. Watch me get down and dirty.
