I wrote a Fringe reaction post yesterday and then woke up to find an angry, ranting response. MY FIRST ONE :D

I feel I should have a different response to random attack blaming "people like me" for all that is wrong with the world (or at least Fringe fandom) but I could do was LOL and YAY and generally get excited.

Someone took time to post it on my out-of-fandom, little read blog. Created a brand new account just to do that. I never even write fanfiction. It almost makes me feel popular or famous. Glee :)

I'm not sure if it's a troll or someone really upset with the fandom as I don't know who fandom likes and doesn't like. I avoid most of the fandoms of shows I like as nothing harshens your squee and excitement as other people. I got only handful of friends and barely anyone responds to my post. This is partially intentional as I just want to write down my thoughts for future reference and vent to clear my head and partially comes out of me being to lazy to advertise and be part of the fandom full time. It also makes me feel this rant is a little wasted on me as there's just not enough audience and I feel excited instead of upset. But it made my day so thank you anonymous, true Fringe fan. You made me feel like a part of internet fandom phenomenon.

Holy crap, that person commenting was so random o_O They didn't seem to understand what you were saying at all, and their reaction was unbelievably disproportionate. And all that cause you like Lincoln more than Peter? O_o

I'm stuck about 5 episodes back because I can't summon the energy to catch up - there's too much true love / destiny going around the show. It annoys me.

My first reaction was "What?" because of the randomness of it. Because I stay out of fandom I was sure Peter is the most popular character and destiny seems like such a popular theme (bleh). I never expected my love for secondary characters to cause such a strong emotions in anyone. Especially in anyone with such a poor reading comprehension.

My second reaction was LOL. It was such a classic ranting attack I felt like I was reading fandomwank or something. There was anger, defensiveness and wanting the show to be cancelled because fandom doesn't behave how they want it to ♥

This is why I was happy in a Lincoln and other team episode. We got a lot of arc with little destiny. And that creepy Olivia memory thing was only barely mentioned. YAY
