schmericaI actually went to check out the ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
fanfic_hate thread on Smallville, but it turned out to be incredibly horribly boring. Honestly, if I'm going to go to the effort and guilt to go through all of that, you'd think it could at least be entertaining in a car-crash or I'm-a-horrible-person-for-reading-this sort of way. Instead it just seems to be round #8,000,124 of the "Smallville is mean to newbies" argument.
On the other hand, I am anticipating the![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ds_undercover stories with much excitement. So much new fic by so many cool people! All at once! Whee!

23/6/04 06:41 (UTC)The funniest part for me is when they're explaining about how the old 'cabal' may be gone from SV, but there's a new bitchy elitist ruling class! Like-- OMG-- Slodwick and Happyminion and, uh, Velvetglove!
Slod? WENDI? Velvetglove? *giggling* Oh my God. WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO THIS FANDOM!
How timid of a mouse do you have to BE, if people like Slod and Velvetglove, (who's actually on record as saying that she doesn't think it's right to say mean things about people, ever) are the evil BNFs that you are soooooo scared of?
I mean, baby, what happened to the good old days? Like, when you had to churn out fic AND run all kinds of fandom shit AND be a complete jackass in public on a semi-regular basis in order to be a BNF, man? I'm just sayin', I'm sure Slod and Wendi and Velvetglove are giving it their best shot, keeping busy with the shunning and the elitism and the secret death chats and all... not that I would really know, since apparently they have some kind of secret pact to exclude me... bitches... but really. It's obvious that standards have gone WAY down since *I* was on the jackboot squad. :D
