Soap box time again

It's soap box time again. And a warning, it's about "fan girls" and those that bash said fan girls. It is about the situation in general no one in specific, so don't ask if it's about you. If you feel it is then you need to check yourself.





First off the lovely "fan girls."



You are the ones that get on my nerves in the worst way, not going to lie. I don't mind the screaming when you see your favorite celeb. You're excited we get that, and some people are just screamers. But after about 5 seconds, SHUT THE HELL UP!!! If you are hyped up on sugar or energy drinks, or whatever else you need to drink/eat to keep yourself going I'll give you 10 seconds, anything longer and I will be shoving a dirty sock in your mouth and secretly hoping you choke on it. Ok, honestly, not secretly, but you get the idea. When they start talking keep your mouth shut! Everyone there, including them, would love to hear what they have to say. If you scream "I LOVE YOU (insert actor's name here)!!" every time they talk, we'll never hear them speak, and they'll just walk off the stage.





Secondly, just because they are in the public eye does not give you a right to talk about them like they are a piece of meat. Discussing with your friends what you think their penis (or boobs) looks like is not acceptable. Joking or not. It. Is. Not. Cool. You make me sick. And if I was around when you said it I would beat you with a wet noodle. No. Joke. That just shows that you are a pathetic individual who has nothing better to know than daydream about a stranger's privates. Ummm. Gross. So just stop vocalizing your attachment to certain areas of a stranger's body. You know, keeping that to yourself will do 3 things for you.




1. It will allow you to keep whatever friends you have now.
2. You will be able to make people think you are normal.
3. It will keep people from filing restraining orders against you.



Another thing, why are you getting sick over something that is happening to a stranger? I understand having sympathy for people when something bad happens, and that's great. It means you have a heart. If your favorite celeb has something happen that sucks and you want to write them a letter of support, that's great. Go for it! But getting SICK because of something that happened to someone YOU'VE never met, that's a little disturbing. What are you going to do next, start following them every where? Creepy.






And now onto the bashers.



EVERYONE has a little "fan girl" in them, and that's perfectly acceptable as long as it's kept in check, so get off your high horses and SHUT THE FUCK UP!!! If someone gets outta hand then yeah tell them to chill, but don't for one second think you are better than them, because you aren't. Saying you're a fan of their work or talent is the same thing as being a "fan girl." The only difference is one has more control of their excitement than the other.



The thing that sets me off the most about bashers is when they say "we'll you just started liking them because of (insert movie that has brought the most success)." SO FUCKING WHAT?!?! You are seriously going to gage the amount a person likes a celeb because of when they found out about them?! Seriously, how childish and idiotic can you be?! It doesn't matter when they found out about the celeb, they are a fan just like you and shouldn't be looked down on.



Bottom line, I am sick and tired of people in the fandom (yes I'm talking about Twilight) talking shit about people who either jumped on the bandwagon late (whether it be for the books, or for the actors) or wear their excitement on their sleeves. It's natural to be excited, and if anyone says they aren't then they shouldn't have anything to do with Twilight, or whatever they are bashing the "fan girls" for. I am just sick and tired of the negativity from the "veterans" just because they have been around longer or know more. It's fucking stupid. I will be the first to admit that I have done it from time to time, but never once have I denied being a "fan girl." If you are apart of the fandom that makes you a "fan girl." You spend countless hours talking about whatever it is that you love, so that makes you the same. You just keep it in check more. Most of the time anyway.

And before I get hate comments about my post. This. Is. For. Me. If you feel I have talked about you in this then you need to do some soul searching. I didn't have a single person in mind when writing this. This is all based on things I have seen through out the fandom, and not from one certain place.
