It's that time again (edited by popular demand)

Apparently.

Yes, it's that time when people in fandom start to act like asshats more than usual, when you just want to say things like "fcol, get that stick out of your arse before you hurt yourself!" or "who died and made you queen of fandom?".

It must be some kind of celestial phenomenon, some odd conjunction that creates more asshattery than usual, since I've seen two sterling examples in the last three days, one here in a livejournal community I'm a member of and the other on a single-fandom mailing list.

Or maybe my tolerance level is just low this time of year...

Heh, had the same reaction.

Okay, I've added one link - the other was to a post on a members-only mailing list.

Pffft. Okay, I've included one link, for your entertainment. ;)

I saw that this morning. Just skimmed it though because apparenlty my bullshit detector is in fine working order <g>

The other one can be paraphrased as someone asking for the best moments to use for a pimping tape in said fandom, which gains the paraphrased response: 'you call it 'pimping'? I would not stoop to such terms or behaviour because I only want people in my fandom who like the show...'

Erm, hello? Been out of your tiny niche of fandom much, Ms Elitist? Doesn't that stick chafe? :P

[chance1562.livejournal.com]

To which I answer, I hope it does chafe and I hope it's thorny as well. (Ooh cranky today methinks <g>)

Oh for god's sake! What a little whiner.

*goes to put kettle on*

No, I didn't mean you, Grac. ;-)

Maybe a little cheese with that whine? ;)

Meanwhile, I think everyone should do as I say, there should be no non-Ezra slash and free chocolate for all!

LOL! Quite.
