“Detective Calhoun, I have been trying to reach your department all morning,” said Vlad, coming to a stop next to the officers. His two bodyguards stood on either side of him.

Just finished Squid Game 3 and it really is such a perfect example of why writers need to think more about writing a satisfying ending and not just what “makes sense” or “is the most realistic.”

Such a letdown, so much wasted potential.

Fandom Problem #9609:

It’s always so wild to me when there’s a character in a piece of media who is like canonically and explicitly stated to be a master manipulator and then people in the fan base will try to argue that the person is actually good and being earnest and it’s just like bro you’ve fallen for the manipulation.

“No. You didn’t.” Calhoun scowled. “You shouldn’t be here.”

Things I Didn’t Think Would Be Hard To Write But ARE

Walking into a room

Transitioning between scenes without it feeling awkward

Two characters saying “I love you” without it being cringe

Describing a character’s face without using the word “eyes” 500 times

A battle scene that doesn’t feel like a turn-based RPG

“I will,” said Maddie. She lowered her voice and held out her hands, palm down. “Please, don’t make this into a scene. Let’s do this calmly.”

Fandom Problem #9545:

I unironicly miss when everyone and their mother ran their own fansite. Sure they were a bit cringey, with the copy pasted sprite images for links and whatever Linkin Park song they liked playing as soon as the page loaded. But when someone wrote in all caps "I AM THE BIGGEST "x" FAN EVAR" at the top of the page, you knew they were in fact the biggest fan evar.

I miss when people could just enjoy things without having to qualify it or explain it somehow. It was just "this thing gives me joy and I want to share it with you".

I literally just saw a post in the whump tag that was like “hey can we just create some universal group of thugs that all fandoms can use anytime we want to get right into torturing our blorbos without writing a whole backstory first” and I was like yeah we just don’t have that problem in our fandom lol

Danny Phantom has such a natural, legitimate setup for torture fics. Like torture fics are more fringe in other fandoms but in ours, torture is a very mainstream genre. Like so mainstream Sam would hate it.

I finally pissed off an FFN scammer so much they actually cussed me out in Hindi lol. New achievement unlocked.

Fandom Problem #9513:

People simply ignoring cannon information about a character because they “Don’t like it”. I’m not saying it’s bad to have headcannons or AUs, It’s just when people COMPLETELY ignore an aspect such as a personality trait, part of the backstory, etc.

Maddie stepped forward and used one hand to push Danny’s bangs off his forehead, placed her other hand on Jazz’s shoulder. She gave them both her most reassuring smile.
