Fourteen-year-olds will lecture college graduates on why their fave relationship is canon and why you’re an Immature Little Bitch for disagreeing. Mothers of two kids will harass newbies over having the Wrong Opinions. No one is safe from the Discourse and the Wank, no one but the legendary longtime fans.

They are there to enjoy themselves, and enjoy the presence of those like them. They are nearly impossible to suss out, but once you find one you find everyone like them. Unbothered by the vocal minorities that campaign against certain actors and unruffled by anonymous hate messages, these are the sages, the ones who have gone through so many reincarnations of the same bullshit that they have achieved Enlightenment, and no longer engage in the constant ebb and flow of fan discontent and harassment.

And you will find, once you have found a small haven of these longtime fans, that you are learning from them. You are like them more and more with every day, absorbing their calm distance from the rage of wank and making peace with its inextinguishable presence.

One day, you too will be seated at the top of the mountain, enjoying both canon and fanfiction undisturbed, and a small newcomer with sunglasses and a gray face will approach and ask how you do it.  How do you ignore the constant hate and drama?
