miserywhipI believe the saying is don't like? Don't read.
We get it, really. We do. You've said it a number of times already, you don't understand how or why and you're better than this.
Great.
There's plenty of stuff that I feel the same way about, and quite frankly - I don't read it. And if I do, I'm certainly not going to go around even mentioning the negative.
I post the parts that amuse me, the parts that I like, and I move on.
Instead of harping on the use of one word that doesn't fit into a scenario. Instead of reading a pairing that I loathe to start with.
You don't like RoyxEd. So don't read it.
You don't like the author. So don't read it.
You don't know what's so great about it. So leave it alone.
Not everything has to be a great piece of literature. Sometimes, just sometimes - a story is something someone writes when they feel down and want to cheer themselves up. It doesn't need to make sense, or be some wonderful masterpiece of words when it's a blurb written while sick to amuse the author. Just because they decide to share it, and others found it entertaining as well doesn't mean you have analyze it to the core.
And for the record, it's not even 1920 yet. So if you're going to get nit-picky attacking one of my friends without even masking your intent this time - keep the facts straight.
You're not the only one in existance who gets hurt easily by every little word, and it's fine when you want to tear me down. Because I put up a tough front, and I can handle myself. But no one is forcing you to read this crap, so why don't you just stop and leave the girl alone?
I'm starting to realize, you're no better than her sometimes.
And I've always given you credit for being the 'nice' one.
It's the nineteen twenties.
'Hot' most certainly does not harbor the same slang connotations as it does in this day and age.
----------------------
I'm so tired of bad writers.
Atrocious writers, whose work anyone within the field of literature or publishing would scoff at... that everyone claims are an 'exclusion' to the rule.
It's great and peachy and splendorous that you're sweet, nice, etc ad infinum.
But that shouldn't blind people to the fact you regurgitate the same thing every teenage girl has ever written in a fanfiction. That shouldn't be the deciding factor that makes you followed about doggedly, and worshiped for every literary sneeze you create.
--------------------------------
Sometimes I stare at this place in horror.
Others, I realize....
I need to step away from fandom. I'm not twelve. Everything worthwhile has been done.
Writing on 'RoyxEd plots of smashing each other through headboard'-'drunk virginity-taking'-'Male pregnancy Edwards whose babies are named after dead characters'-'cat chimera someones'....
I've come to the startling conclusion that: It is terrible as a body of work. I can be ashamed of it.
And I can step away to read things of substance, great depth and talent in the place of being force-fed the same blueprints of fan-borne attraction that everyone else mindlessly consumes with neither reason nor logic....
And for the record. My private RP has never been claimed to be a work of literature.
But I can be tired of cliches without giving up what I enjoy. Or I'd have run screaming from the DR ages ago.
