drama on the interwebz. dnw.
So, in this week, this week of weeks, when I am in dire need of nice, happy things on the interwebs, I instead get not so nice, happy things.
I despair of teenage bandom fans on tumblr. They literally make my soul hurt. If I am following a person and it becomes obvious they are younger than 16 I unfollow that shit so fast I almost break my laptop. Also, one hint of drama and I'm gone. It doesn't matter how pretty your pictures and gifs are.
I know that no one probably cares because I'm one person and I don't post/reblog/ask/etc all that much anyway on the Tumblr machine. I'm no BNF. I just like my pretty things without drama attached.
Someone is going to try to make a Doctor Who movie. They will fuck it up horribly. There is no good here.
Religion and I are not comfortable with each other for a myriad of reasons that include but are not limited to my parents, the way they live, the way they expect me to live, how much I love them and don't want to disappoint them, how I was raised (and indoctrinated), what I actually want to do, how I'm confused as to if what I've been taught all my life is what I should actually do or not, etc.
These religious issues of mine are many and sticky and prickly and I don't like thinking about it because it makes my head hurt and that's not something I enjoy. I don't laugh at jokes that make fun of religion in a mean way, just like I don't laugh at jokes that are about Barack Obama. That shit's just not funny. I don't care if you're my mom, I will shut that joke down.
So Brendon Urie makes me uncomfortable with his very vehement, very in-your-face anti-religious stance. I can sort of understand where he comes from but it's still sort of uncomfortable. Zach-the-bodyguard's joke was in even less taste, but from what I understand, being in a band/being attached to a band that tours all the time (that is full of guys) is basically like living in a frat house. That's pretty much the level of douchiness and stupidity that I expect. Not that that's a real excuse, but living in the real world, I am not as offended as I could be.
Stupid little girls talking about how much they hate Sarah (Brendon's fiance) and how they want her to die in a fire simply because she happens to be dating Brendon Urie crosses so many fucking lines that I get pissed off. This chick has done nothing offensive.
Also, WTF is going on over at OTW? Don't tell me, I don't actually want to know. Just, you guys. Stop yelling and think about things before you post them, please? I like fandom. It brings me awesome stories, amazing pictures and art, and above all, people who as super passionate about things that I'm super passionate about. I don't want it to break.
