I'm randomly feeling like crying. DVD drive still doesn't work, the trafficmagnet thing, and I feel (egotistical, I know) like the Lotrips fandom is overrun by teenies who are ruining evrything RPS has gained over the last two years. How am I ever gonna honestly argue that RPSers can distinguish between reality and fantasy when there's people seeing those tongue-licking pictures and immediately concluding that that means they must be gay?
Fucking PMS.
In jollier news, I just got another $7 referral fee from your-site, thanks to whomever you are! (Total femgeeks funds: $91!)

Well, if it makes you feel any better...
(There were people like that in NSync fandom too, weren't there? Or at least, I seem to recall there being some huge blowup about "Believers" vs. non-believers. *smacks people*)

Re: Well, if it makes you feel any better...
And yes, there were, but they didn't make up most of the fandom! Or at least I wasn't confronted with them.
Right. Relativation. I can do that.

(really. I am tempted to start a Very Secret List where mature people can discuss LOTR FPS/RPS slashiness, without resorting to screaming "oooooohh," every few minutes and submitting badly spelled fanfics. Well, maybe some "oooooohs" would be allowed, but no badly spelled fanfic. Really. Tempted.)

I think I'm up to causing trouble in at least four, maybe five separate fandoms.

*grins evilly*
On the second one, I'll settle for lotrips for now. But I think I'm up to an argument in that. Oh, yeah.

It took me a while to get that, but at least I know it.

I guess Molly did start the PC discussion, but I'm fairly sure Stagie left because I was there. She left another list once before because someone she didn't like was on it.
Metallica really was my fault.
It's not just fandom. You encounter differing opinions in life. I really respect Leetal for letting the discussion go where it will. She's not trying to pretend that people always agree.

Re: *grins evilly*
Well, with Stagie, I think she was looking for an excuse to leave once you joined. I don't care, because I refused to take sides on the tallific vs metslash debate until I was dragged into it.
Well, I didn't think it was, but if you do. I think perhaps the whole LJ war might have been your fault if anything was, but having a differing opinion was not your fault.
Exactly. I mean, my closest friend who is practically my clone and I have differences of opinion all the time. We get past that.
I think Leetal is handling it amazingly. I also think that for the most part, the list is doing great with it as well. For the most part.

I think that may have been me. *g* I just signed up for a site at your-site (I am now the owner of two domains...my decent into total geekdom is almost complete...) and when they asked how I got there, I said you referred me. *g*
