Argh, I was so stupid a few days ago when I posted a story help question on [snapeslash]. I asked for certain story without realizing I meant a not-yet-posted story sent to me by

viccy who was kind enough to offer me a sneak peak, so to speak, and I... *winces*

I so totally agree with you. Those people who have disclaimers like:

'I just wrote this fic these past 7 hours and then just HAD to post. I know it's crap but tell me you love it anyway'

make me sick. Do they have no pride?

Of course the fact that most fandoms (and Potter in particular) have lots of mailing lists where idiots write really bad fics and get praised by others is just adding oil to the flames.

... and you'll be lucky indeed if they needed seven whole hours to pin it down. Usually fic like that must surely be written in class by fifteen-year-olds who discuss the color of their nail polish at the same time. There's no other explanation.

It could also be a sign of the impending apocalypse, I suppose...

;-P

And those brainless sycophants who praise every little piece of drivel because its sugar content is close to 99% also turn my stomach.

Ewwww.....

Now am thinking of all the sugary drivel Snape has sprouted. I'll definitely have nightmares.

Yeah, 'Snape' and 'sweet' in the same sentence tend to cause them unfailingly... ;-)
