So after the general wankage that's happened recently, I figured that many of my flist (and even non-flist) could use a big hug right now. ::hugs flist and others::
I just don't understand the hatred and anger that seems to be so prevolent amongst the online fandom. Why do so many people care if someone else writes slash/het/gen...whatever?? Don't like it? Don't read it. No one has tied you to the chair in front of your computer. (Unless you're Daniel in a Whump!fic) Move on to other things that make you feel happier and that you enjoy. Can't find an archive that has your preferred type of fic? Instead of bitching about the ones that are out there, create your own.
My list of things I like about fandom and my flist...
I like that I have a somewhat varried flist when it comes to tastes in fic.
I like that I've found folks on my flist who almost completely share my taste in fic and fandoms (Hi![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
gigitrek).
I like that fandom gives me the opportunity to have conversations with people with whom I'd never get the chance to socialize otherwise.
I like that I can openly drool over hot men (naked or clothed) and most of my flist gets it. I like that some of my flist may not get it.
I like that there are brilliant people on my flist who can articulate things in a way that makes me think.
I like that there are people on my flist who can make me giggle insanely and spit out my soda.
