I have arrived
It is taking every single ounce of self-control I possess not to go and look, but apparently there's a side-swipe at me at the anon meme, on the topic of someone else's fic.
I don't know if that's good or bad or what. I mean, really? I am an obscure little gen writer in one small corner of fandom. I have no idea why I'd even be mentioned there, except maybe because I recc'd that fic a few times.
I am omitting names of authors & fics to protect the innocent & to avoid unnecessary wank. Please, dear readers, if you do end up commenting here, do the same.
I'm just kind of amused that these people think I'm commenting on the anon. meme in any capacity (that was the gist of the comment). As I have said in comments elsewhere: if you have an opinion strong enough to express, then stand up and OWN IT. I don't do anonymous. I sign my name (or my online handle, anyway) to whatever I write. Also? I don't generally have the time to scroll through that sort of meme. I stumbled across it once, accidentally (which is how I know where it is), and each entry is several pages of anonymous comments, which I don't have the time, inclination, or energy to scroll through.
That being said, I am a little sick of having my friends hurt by this stupid meme, though. In the past ten days, no fewer than five people on my flist have found themselves in that community's cross-hairs. It's petty and worthy only of high school, which, in my case, I left fifteen years ago. Been there, done that, don't need to revisit it, thank you very much.
In short, anyone who can't man up and own their words? Can kiss my ass.
