turpsSo popslash blew up overnight. I don't get it myself, hate threads seem to serve no purpose and if that makes me holier than thou so be it. I'll also hold my hands up to being fat, 30 and writing fiction about boybands who don't give a damn about me. Which really wounds me, because I was holding out for that fuck session with Chris next time I starved my kid, saved all my money and flew to a 15 minutes concert. I'm sorry though, I'll have to pass on being bi because I totally identify as straight. But wait! I have a sort of internet girlfriend. ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
castalie and I virtual kiss, with tongues even, so does that class as bi? ;)
I'm not going to deny anyone the right to an opinion, but I dislike the way it was done. I also feel bad for anyone named even though I suspect they're more than capable of brushing it off. I don't know, things like this make me feel edgy. I know fandom can be vicious, I'm not that naive, but at the same time seeing it showing its fangs like this is unsettling. Which makes me sound like a wuss I know *shrugs*saturn92103 has started a thread too, so if you want to spread love not hate, go here
Anyone that got caught up in that mess *hugs*. Now I'm going to my fannish happy place, which yes is unrealistic. You know what though? That's how I like it. So I'll just be over there, looking at the pretty, anyone want to join me? I have cakes and pink lemonade. I'd offer alcohol but I have none unless you count the bottle of ouzo that could strip paint.
Moving on. I read my Choey! Which explains the no alcohol thing. I sat with a chilled drink and read for hours and it was bloody fantastic. Mysterious Ways is one of the best stories I've read for a long time. It made me cry, it made me laugh and it sucked me in and spat me out in the early hours of the morning, and you know what? I'm dying to do it all again. I loved it so much, and the Chris/Joey relationship was perfect. I'd read this even if you don't like Choey, it's just that good.
Briefly, my dad came to visit last night. In the space of an hour he told me I'd missed my grandad's birthday, grandad was getting worse and his own symptoms were getting worse too because his speech is starting to slur at times. He also brought a spinning top for Corey that he and his fiancée bought in Turkey. Sadly none of us can work it. It seems we don't have the touch to make it spin *g*
Okay, I'm off to read the flist. Somehow I thinkdigital_diva may have some pretty for me to look at.

It's totally out of hand, just under 1000 comments most of them hate comments. Not just generalised either but names. I'm in turns baffled that people would spend all this energy on hating like this and pissed because people who I like have been singled out.
I know! I was totally under the impression that I was going fuck Chris one day. I mean, it's why I'm a slasher, so I can have illusions that one day our eyes will meet across a crowded room, he'll rush over, tell me he's been waiting for me all my life and then we'll go and make sweet love as music plays and fireworks explode.
Bastards, smashing my hopes like that.
