It's really simple, really. I just stay the fuck away from fandom. Any fandom. The gathering of fangirls in one spot is enough to make my head spin with this atrocious headache. I keep telling people - I am part of a fanbase, I do not, ever, participate in fandom. Because it's ridiculous and it will most likely make me turn away from things that I like. People can generalize and say "omg she's a kpop fan, she's fucking nutters" or "omg, she likes DBSK and YunJae, she's a fucking elitist" or "omg she liks jpop wtf is she doing liking kpop?"
I am both a kpop and jpop fan. Sooo what? Unlike sad fangirls, I do not define myself by what type of things I "fangirl". Before being a kpop or jpop fan, I'm Sophie. I am a person who loves music of all kinds. I listen to western music OMG NO? FOR REAL? THAT IS SO LAST YEAR. My life is more important that an idol's new haircut.
I have better things to do than listen or read petty shit about people him, her, them, you, she, we, I don't even know.
They don't know you exist. They don't caaare about you. They don't caaare that you're on this raging, stupid, useless war between kpop, jpop, jrock, jurban, twpop, HKpop, kdrama, jdorama, twdrama...wtf ever. You don't like something? Fine. Nobody's forcing you to like it. You don't want to read something? There's the fucking "x" at the top of every window you open. Let's face it, ya'll just like to moan and bitch. Grow up, get a life, step outside, look around you. You'll see there are far more important and serious things to be upset over than some girl dissing that idol you like.
This isn't directed to anyone per se, it is my general opinion of fandom. Thank you fandom, for providing me with pretty pictures and videos that I don't have to go looking for too far. Thank you for the LOLs I have at the stupidity (the good kind and the bad kind) that you bring up. Other than that, I don't give a shit. So now that everyone knows what I think of it, I won't ever talk about it again. :D
