Memories that come to mind when I think over my two years in Smallville fandom (Feb 2002 - Jan 2004):

+ "OMG, Handful of Dust!"
+ "OMG, Mercy!"
+ "OMG, Immortality!"
+ "OMG, Hope is an evil bitch and Chloe is a OTP-destroying whore!"
+ Het vs slash CAGEMATCH.
+ The jackboot cabal rules ALL.
+ SV fandom is elitist and mean to newbies!!!
+ Present tense is the devil.
+ Sentence fragments are the devil.
+ SV is homophobic for not making Clark/Lex canon!!!
+ Incest is OOGY and WRONG. Sickos.
+ "meta is boring/you're ruining my squee" vs "well, excuse me if I like thoughtful discussion!"
+ Clark is evil mean bad boyriend man! GROVELFIC AHOY.
+ "Your argument is obviously invalid because you are a bad mother and a pedophile. SO THERE."
+ "OMG, people make fun of badfic!"
+ "OMG, why must you all hate Jonathan so much!!! ...Oh, wait, we hate Jonathan now, too. Nevermind!"

Memories that come to mind when I think over my two years in due South fandom (Jan 2004 - Jan 2006)

+ "OMG, Ray Kowalski doesn't smoke!"

...That's it.

I don't know if it's just the old, settled-down, closed canon fandom thing or not, but dS, you lose at kerfuffling.

DS is just all wanked out. I mean, even when I'd never heard anything about Due South aside from the fact that it existed, I'd heard of the Ray Wars.

All our wank is in the past! We have learned from our mistakes!

...our possibility just gotten a whole new segment of people. *g*
