fanficrants. It's kinda fun to have a place to get the crap you find in fic of your chest with other folks who sympathize with you. However, I've noticed recently this trend of rants where people are like "Why does every guy have the perfect dick? Why is the sex always great? Why is there no bad sex?" And I realized, it's because no one wants to read about Ianto actually have a puny little 4 inch dick and Jack not being able to get it up. Seriously. Does anyone want to read that? No. Fanfic is a fantasy. And when I fantasize, everything is always great & perfect cos that's what fantasies are. Unless the fic is some great epic that goes into every detail of their entire life, I don't want to read about the times where Daniel is too tired and he can't get it up for Jack. Perspective people, please.

Date: 2008-04-24 02:46 am (UTC)I don't even think everything and everyone has to be perfect, but I do prefer the fantasy and the fun and the hotness a lot more than I want to read about people having bad sex. *G* I don't read fanfic for good stories, and I don't read fanfic to read realistic accounts of anything. :-)
