Snark! at the Disco

I really debated whether or not to bother responding to this, but the ageist shit and rudeness bothered me enough to do so. (keeping the OP’s url out of this cuz I’m not trying to send anyone hate anons.)

So. You’re upset that I’m a year younger than Brendon himself and still a fan of his band that I’ve been a fan of since I was 16? Seriously? And I’m not sure what you’re referring to when you say “sexual comments about Dallon,” but if I did say something you found inappropriate, first of all a) I’m an adult, b) he’s an adult, c) there isn’t a big age difference between us and d) he’s a fucking gorgeous man. What, do you expect me to say “Oh what a dashing handsome man! Would not dare to think of anything sexual or untoward in regards to this married man! Pip pip!” Come on! Meanwhile there are literal /children/ in this fanbase who call him “daddy” in a sexual way, make explicit sexual comments to him on Twitter, and write some of the most sexually graphic and explicit fan fiction I’ve personally seen…. but I’M the gross one.. or whatever it is you’re trying to imply. Let’s not even get started on all the minors (and adult fans) who sexualize Brendon to no end… 

And as far as my dislike for “Beebo” goes, this is my blog… I said it’s a stupid nickname and that it annoys the shit out of me… I am by NO MEANS the only person who feels this way, but that is my personal opinion, not an attack. I’m very much allowed to express my opinion on stupid/obnoxious nicknames on my personal blog, that’s what people DO here. Gosh. 

These are some of the most childish and shallow reasons to dislike someone I’ve ever seen. You literally don’t know me at all and have never made any attempt to so PLEASE stop judging me and talking about me unfavorably on your blog just because I’m still a fan after all these years (an OG fan,) EVEN though I’m getting close to 30! Just like Brendon! How crazy! I must be the only Panic! fan who is the band’s age! 🙄 

And idk how old you are, but it’s pretty goddamn shitty of a younger fan to go around and talk shit about a dedicated, OG fan just because they happen to be older than you (yet still younger than the band members themselves.) I’ve seen SO many young fans doing this. I mean.. You do realize the fanbase is gonna age, right? It’s not always going to be new kids discovering Panic! Us fans in our 20s will continue to be fans into our 30s and on. We grew up with Panic! in our lives for nearly 11 years and we’re not just gonna bail now because the newer/younger fans are for some reason perturbed by the fact that there are older/age-appropriate fans who have been around since the band started… That’s real shitty and weird. We really don’t deserve that. 

Not that it really matters, but @snarkatthedisco @samanthaangel, @falloutjerks and I are all in our mid to later 20s and between us all have met or talked to or hung out with the Panic! guys more than 20 times (at various kinds of events.) That’s not just because of luck either, believe it or not. Age is a huge factor. 

So just don’t be a dick to or about older fans. We’re not being dicks to you… at least I’M sure not. Please stop talking about me.

here is this straight man who isn’t afraid of admitting he’s experimented multiple times with men, who isn’t afraid of saying he finds men attractive, who doesn’t give a fuck or even think twice about wearing heels or doing traditionally feminine things, who cried after gay marriage was legalized, who is comfortable with his sexuality and likes breaking gender norms and that is such an important thing
