You know, I love fandom. But comments like the one below...well...they get to me. Just a bit. I feel like this is what the outside world thinks fandom is, and while capslock and squeeage have their place, whole threads of this sort of thing are just too much.

OMG THAT IS LIKE THE CUTEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN ILU HAVE MY E-BABIES.

I see that constantly over at [livejournal.com profile] support_pattz, mostly because there are a LOT of teenage girls (or those with the minds of them) in that fandom. I'm mostly there for the icons, haha. All the wank that comes along with fandoms is what gets me. People throw hissy fits over the dumbest things (especially in Twilight fandom, jeeeesus effing christ!). I want a pan-fandom icon that says "I am a mature fan, thanks".

...Please don't tell me that comment came from the wrestling fandom.

Nope. Final Fantasy.

I would totally use a "mature fan" icon!

Or "My fandom would be even more awesome if there weren't so many idiots in it" but that's a bit too wordy :D
