#obsessive fandom

I don’t understand why some people will get so riled up about other people making up their own Robstar kids instead of Mar’i/Jacob. They probably just didn’t know they existed! And as annoying as OC’s can usually get, I think Next-Gen is the exception since they, again, probably just wanted to give their ship a future family. Take a chill-pill, dude!

As much as I love TT Starfire, I really wish that ppl didn’t make her the definitive version of her :/

The implications in the issue “The Fearsome Five” that Robin was somehow wrong to distrust Jinx after she attempted to kill him and his team multiple times annoy me. Nobody should have to forgive someone for something like that just because they’re sorry now. That’s not how redemption works. He wasn’t required to trust her at the end either, but they still acted like it was an arc of his in some sick sort. The fact that the fandom seems to think the same way about it only adds salt to the wound.

I can’t take it when BBRae shippers attempt to act as if because not everyone in the fandom is toxic means others can’t view the fandom as a whole negatively. Most of the time when people say “the BBRae fandom” they’re only talking about the bad ones, and just because you, yourself aren’t toxic doesn’t mean that the entire fandom is suddenly wasn’t responsible for all the harassment and hate comments it’s left. Toxic!shippers are going to make people view a ship as a whole negatively, that’s just how the world works, and as a shipper in the fandom you should be mature enough to deal with that. I love Robrae but I’m able to admit that a good amount of the shippers can be horrible, and when you like a ship with as many toxic fans as BBRae your denial is just sad and honestly only makes me hate the ship more.

I'm going to be 50 years old next year. I've often said that you can be immature as long as you want, as long as you're not irresponsible about it. But with this it feels like "Your Rogue obsession was cute when you were a teen and in your early 20's, but it's getting more and more pathetic each year."

Stop using tags that won't display appreciation for a certain character.
