I have just been called an 'asshole' because I politely refused to accede to a perfect stranger's request to write them Catherine/Greg. Seriously. They pinged me about ten minutes ago, when I'd never even heard of them let alone conversed with them before, and asked if I wrote CSI. When I said yes, they went on this huge begging spree for Catherine/Greg.

So I pointed them to [livejournal.com profile] always_winter's site, who does write some bloody good Catherine/Greg, but that's not enough. Oh no. They want someone to write a Catherine/Greg story for them. Suggesting issuing a challenge to some of the lists was also ignored while this person kept insisting I write it. Apparently no one was interested, and given that his or her idea consisted of i was think of one where they are alone at the lab and then they make love I'm not surprised.

Humpfh. So if anyone else in the CSI fandom is contacted by this person, please feel free to send them a huge 'fuck right off' from me. I merely contented myself with blocking them ::g::

ETA: [livejournal.com profile] misssimm is being completely unsupportive. Ah well. Don't let it be said that I don't amuse my friends.

ETA2:

[livejournal.com profile] alyse: you know, the temptation to write one where Catherine and Greg are having sex in the lab, where he suffers first from performance anxiety and then from premature ejaculation is immense
[livejournal.com profile] misssimm: bwah! do it! do it! please, I'm begging you, please....

Heh.

I was supportive! I was there and did my shocked face when she/he/it called you an asshole which admittedly made it less funny...

*sniggers at ETA2* I figured an imitation of your new friend was in order ;)

ah, it's always the crazies that have a severe sense of fannish entitlment. this warrants my o_O face.

Oooh! I had one of those once. I can't remember who she wanted me me to pair up, but she e-mailed me three 'story outlines', which were basically 'make char A and char B fall in love and have babies'.

I declined, and she spent another three days e-mailing me and begging before calling me a bitchy BNF and going off in the huff.

Wacky fun ;)

Only giggling.

I can't take the BNF thing seriously, as the fandom I'm a BNF in is miniscule. It's like being a big name in bent spork appreciation.

"Bow down before me, puny mortal, for I am BNF! What do you mean, you've never heard of me? Have you at least heard of my fandom? No? Right... well... I'll just go... do something else then. Bye!"

Y'know, there shold be more appreciation for bent sporks *grin*

How rude!

And generally I'm amused when someone calls me an asshole. I actually find it a compliment. My coworker called me one once and I beamed and said Thank you!

Still, though. How rude.

Big Name Fan. Someone so well known in the fandom that everyone else has heard of them. There are nice BNFs, who get known because they run archives and mailing lists, and help people out. And then there's the other kind of BNF. Domineering, narrow-minded, with a huge sense of entitlement.

Ah. I see. I don't get out much. I'm definitely the latter. Haha. Just kidding.

Thanks. ;)

Sorry to intrude, I just surfed over from [livejournal.com profile] misssimm's journal.

*shakes my head* I'm sorry...but on the one hand--funny (and I really think you *should* write that premature ejaculation fic) and on the other so so not. Because I have both been there and been pissed off by that.

The self righteous consumerist attitude of fengirls takes my breath away. Perhaps organizing a ficathon "The Crappy Fic written on Demand for Morons" might help weed out the worst of the offenders.

At this point I'd be going "No, honey. That wasn't asshole. This is being an asshole." And then promptly go on a spree that would make an electronic anarchist proud ;)


But that's just me

*tries not to giggle at your pain...much*

I would've promised - yes-yes-1000-times-yes.

Then come back 30 seconds later with a 'there'll be lots of big words in this - are you sure you can read them without me splitting them up for you?'

From: [identity profile] moonlettuce.livejournal.com


You could always write a fic where the sex they have is so bad they both go off and turn gay *g*

From: [identity profile] redleaf0.livejournal.com


lol, i can't stop laughing.
please, write the one about premature ejaculation :)
Seriously: some people are just unreasonable.. *pats*
