1. Apparently, if you are Meant To Be Together, every time you have sex you will climax simultaneously. Every time in your multi-orgasmic encounters, which are unfettered by the reality of a little thing called the refractory period.

2. That the writer I was mocking at [livejournal.com profile] connotations last year has not given up her purple prose of doom and is indeed providing me with more raw material for this year's con (since apparently men have prostate glands but wizards have 'an organic pleasure button'). Not quite as florid as the previous example, but then that was something special in more ways than one...

3. That I can deal with TEEN CAPS OF ANGST if the story that provokes them is good enough.

4. That some people are clearly smoking the bad crack by what they put out in public (though I think I knew that already!).

5. That I find writing for other people (i.e. trying to figure out what they would like in these challenge thingys) much more anxiety-provoking than anything else. Including waiting for exam results and being interviewed for jobs. Bah.

6. That people think if they put quips in their author notes about how bad the story is, or how bad their writing is, that everyone will still rush to read what they've written anyway. And that usually they're right - it is bad.

So, what have you, oh wise friendslist people, learned this week? ;)

I learned (while checking out story archives) that even if characters are brothers, they will be slashed more often that not.

That's just...eww.

Yeah, I don't get the attraction either. I mean, no matter how cute the guys are, if you're that desperate to slash them then you're probably a little too desperate. And if we were talking Numb3rs here rather than (as I suspect) Supernatural, it ignores the chemistry kicking off with other people the main characters aren't biologically related too...

You suspected correctly, I was actually talking about Supernatural. I've never really gotten interested enough to look into Numb3rs fanfic...but it doesn't surprise me that it exists there either.

I just don't get incest, whatever combination it happens to be. There was this one Mag7 fic that the author went out of her way to make the guys all brothers, then she slashed Chris and Ezra. It's just...why? It was fairly well written, but why *make* unrelated characters with lots of potential anyway brothers *then* make them have sex? It's just...odd.
