People are such downers!

Wow! has anyone looked at the #AskSupernatural tag on Twitter? It's all vent, vent, Cas/Dean vent, vent... rinse & repeat. The some idiots who can't type actual sentences so I don't know what they're even asking. Ugh Twitter. I would not like to be the poor intern who has to go through those. They will need alcohol. Much alcohol.

Maybe we should try to flood it with some less vent-y, but useful questions. I totally will when/if I think of any... Nup, nothing is coming except the Impala floodlight question. I'll pop that up anyway.


Today I found a S5 Supernatural Guidebook thingy in a $2 bin! It's the season I'm watching and it has nice glossy pictures of the boys in suits. $2 well-spent.

I love finds like that! My hubby found one of the SPN graphic novels and gave it to me for my birthday. :))

And yeah - that tag. I wonder if they actually thought if would be wank free! There are some good ones in there though. Hopefully the person in charge to sorting them out will know which questions really need answering (or at least are interesting and relevant). We'll see I suppose!

I normally avoid Twitter (and Tumblr) for all the vent-y reasons you state, but just took a peek at the #askSupernatural tag. Whoa. I see our lovely fandom hasn't changed a bit. And someone certainly did not think this issue through. ;)

Yay on finding cheap books, though!

I think show needs to shut off the twitter account and just shut fandom out of the conversation; we deserve no less and can blame the rabble for their over-zealous activism. IT'S A FRIGGIN' TV SHOW!!! you wanna get mad, find something in real life to 'get active' about and do so in a positive, life affirming way.

And you know, I love the threat of 'we'll stop watching if you don't (fill in blank). Seriously? As much as I would hate to lose viewers, this subsect of fandom with its fatuous and constant paroxysm of invidious rhetoric is ruining it for those of us who have lives, love show and don't feel entitled to a show, on a major network, doing what WE want them to. Just like any other show on television, they have advertisers who pay the bills and would likely part company if the subsect's ransom demands, demented though they are, were met.

PS: sorry for the weird words.. hehehe.. i'm in the middle of a writing challenge wherein we had to use 5 words we didn't otherwise know. I only hope my newest fandom, BBC Musketeers, doesn't devolve into rabid chaos at some point. Fingers crossed!

Keep an eye on those Supernatural official guides - seasons 4 and 5 are worth a heck of a lot of money! (I have both - signed by various members of the cast. Don't know whether that makes them worth more or less!!)

All I want to ask Mr Carver would be, 'are you done with brother vs brother, yet?'.
- And because I already know that he's deaf on that ear it's not necessary to create a twitter account just to be able to ask Mr *coughs* Showrunner a question he wouldn't answer anyway.

On the other site... I can only shake my head in disbelief about what you're telling here, sweetie. Where, I ask you, where have all the bright grown women gone that once were [and hopefully still are!!] the core and solid basic of this, our beloved fandom?
*waves* ♥

When I decided to throw myself back into fandom, I also decided that my flist was the ONLY part of fandom I was throwing myself at. Under buses over at Twitter? No thank you, but thank you for letting me know it's just not worth worrying about missing anything! :))

Because I lurk in the quieter shoals of fandom, I tend to miss the crazies. But they're obviously out there - with Twitter accounts! I hope the intern reading gets lots of chocolate and coffee.

Incidentally, bits of the vid you made for this year's Latter Day Geeks service is being used in a report my region of the church makes to all of Victoria and Tasmania, so you get thanked at the end. Don't worry, no one but church people will see it! I hope it doesn't harm your vidding street cred. :-)

Sometimes fandom makes me go, like, are those people even for real???.. *facepalm*

Want my season 1 trading cards + folder? Happy to give them over to someone who is still into the show.

Nup, nothing is coming except the Impala floodlight question. I'll pop that up anyway.

YES. *cackles* :-D

I'm off Twitter entirely due to spoilers for everything (I'm still only 2 episodes into SPN season 9 :-P), but if they say anything in response I'd love to hear it!

I saw some of the wanky tweets reposted on tumblr, before the tag was deleted. Some people are very, very delusional. They think that by being rude and pushing their agenda, that the powers that be will listen to them... but it's never going to happen.

It's cool that you got that book for only $2. :)
