Apparently I have an antifan!

[dangermousie]

I am her unspoken nemesis and everything. Sample Fun. Another bit of fun (now with bonus incorrect facts). Oh, And this, of course.

I have posters I don't like and I solve the problem by not reading them. Clearly too complicated a concept to master. Also, I have no idea if tumblr has an equivalent of flocking your posts, but if it does, it might be smart to do so next time, antifangirl, huh?

Also, it is nice to know that someone there thinks of me a lot even if it is to say things like this is the person who thinks myung-wol the spy is the best rom-com in the last five years or some shit
she loves hot gimmick
she writes rape culture apologia
she hates beta males
she thinks comedy is inherently less meaningful than tragedy
she thinks the drama 'a love to kill' is as profound and resonating as 'classic russian literature'
DO YOU UNDERSTAND WHY WE ARE AT SUCH ODDS
she is my unspoken nemesis
i have never talked to her and yet i know that one day we will destroy each other in pitched battle

I never even thought anyone much outside of flist read me (I am no Dramabeans or Koala) but to see so much time spent on disliking me and my opinions makes me feel like a K-celebrity now. Off to put on my sunglasses and hideously-patterned prints...

Antifan, if you are reading this, do come and chat...my ego needs stroking. Also, capitalization is your friend. Unless you are e.e. cummings, in which case, welcome back from the grave!

Oh, and in the unlikely event you read Russian, this is my final opinion on the topic: тебе психиатра нужно, лапа!

I am not locking this deliberately.

Ack! They're my friends on LJ and/or Tumblr.

I don't agree with everything you say--sometimes I very strongly disagree--but this kind of character bashing makes me deeply sad. I'm sorry.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

That's the thing. There is almost nobody on my flist with whom I have identical opinions (why would there be?) but I have no problem if someone thinks e.g. that Hong Sisters are the best thing ever and that period dramas all suck. I am not going to think it's moral deficiency on their part.

[morwen_peredhil]

Oh, wow. Someone has Issues with a capital I. (Or would, if she believed in using caps for anything other than CAPSLOCK OF RAGE.)

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

LOLOLOL. Seriously, the grammar and capitalization gets creative.

[filmi-girl.livejournal.com]

Oh for HEAVEN'S SAKE! dangermousie I'm so sorry you have an antifan... it's ridiculous to spend so much time hating on somebody who writes FOR FUN.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Pretty much. I mean, it's fandom - having someone have different fandom opinions is fine. Thinking those opinions are freaky is fine. Thinking the poster is horrid for having them is a whole other thing. Now I know how you feel with the crazies on your blog.

[autumn-yaar.livejournal.com]

If you don't have haters, you are doing something wrong. :D

Honestly, by reading her tumblr she seems a little odd. So I'm not surprised she is posting off the wall stuff. It is kind of funny actually! Although I am a little worried that she is obsessed with you... that has got to be unhealthy. The post where she said she was sucked into reading your journal again was... err... disturbing?

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

LOLOLOLOL.

Yes, the thing that is freaky is not that she disagrees with me. It's not even that she thinks I am immoral for my opinions. It's that she keeps stalking my LJ and can't stop, as if it is some sort of a cocaine habit. WTF?

[(Anonymous)]

Just stumbled upon your livejournal, dangermousie! Sorry you are having to put up with this antifan -- I was going to keep tally of all of her logical fallacies but then I lost track because there were too many ... :P

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

LOL, thank you :) And welcome :)

[hollyxu.livejournal.com]

... not agreeing with someone and bashing him/her are two very different things, and it sounds like whoever this is hasn't learned the difference yet.

In the meantime, chill with some popcorn?

Speaking of destroying people in pitched battle, how are you holding up under the hurricane? Hope Baby Mousie isn't scared of storms or anything.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Exactly. She doesn't seem that young though so I suppose it will forever be a lost skill :)

Hurricane went through with no damage to us (thankfully) and the weather is beyond gorgeous now. Thank God. I didn't stock up on food or anything.

[miss-magrat.livejournal.com]

What the hell. Do people really have nothing else to do? Don't they feel they waste their time hating on a random person on the internet? I also asked my mom to translate the Russian bit - LOL I agree 100% ;)

(When I finally got fed up with Dramabeans after the whole IRIS/YAB debacle, I simply stopped reading the blog. Apparently, that was a wrong thing to do - I should have written numerous angry entries about the extent of my hate instead!)

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Your Mom speaks Russian? Eeeee! I am trying to teach Baby Mousie Russian but it's sort of a lost cause as my husband speaks so little of it.

Yes. I know that mine and DB tastes in dramas are almost always incompatible, so I don't read her recaps, while still reading the news items. Clearly I should have created a tag for 'hate you, DB' and posted repeatedly on the topic.

[ilanala]

Wooooow. There are people on the internet I disagree with on everything and generally can't stand, but I've learned that it's far better for my sanity to just ignore them. It doesn't always work, but...sheesh, declaring someone your nemesis, however jokingly, is taking things to a whole new level.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Seriously, there are some bloggers, though not in drama fandom, that drive me up the wall. So I stopped reading them.

[singing-tree.livejournal.com]

People have different opinions. It happens. BIG SHOCKER.

Somebody clearly needs to get a life.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Yes, pretty much.

[zhuer.livejournal.com]

awww. i'm so sorry! nobody deserves that! this is your own journal and you have your rights to post whatever you want! it's not your problem that people start reading it lol. i'll admit i got into your journal because you actually watch and love mainland dramas *sobs* thank you a million times. and you love yang mi so that instantly elevates you to goddess status.
but seriously. nemesis? it's almost laughable

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Yang Miiiiiiii! I am pining for Ruyi and her movie with Daniel Wu so much!

This reminds me (tangentially), I need to catch up on Yi Zi Mei.

[lazypadawan.livejournal.com]

Something like that happened to me about four or five years ago. I ended up blocking the ringleader after I got some nasty "gifts" from her supporters.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Oh, I am sorry, it sounds horrid!

[(Anonymous)]

Just fyi you can't lock posts on tumblr.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Thanks! Then perhaps it's not the sort of platform for personal rants she clearly needs.

[iheartkleenex.livejournal.com]

UGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! She insulted A Love To Kill? Clearly, she is just some 14 year girl, who has nothing to do during the summer and decides to talk about things she doesn't understand. She needs to get another hobby.

Don't let it bother you too much. Honestly, she is just making a fool out of herself. Try locking most of your posts, maybe that will help. Or make it a friends only journal.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Seriously. ALTK is amazing. But even if you don't like it and, like this girl, prefer romcoms, I severely doubt it's a sign of moral degeneracy to like ALTK.

[spunspider.livejournal.com]

it seems she made a post acknowledging her passive-aggression, so, that's something.

you just. can't call it rape apologia when it's not rape.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Pretty much. You can say I have fucked-up views on relationships if I think this is OK or whatever, but rape it isn't.

Also, her description of the scene 'have sex or your cover is blown' makes no sense at all - he doesn't know she HAS a cover and she is not suspecting he does so wtf.

[spazzy06.livejournal.com]

I just read some of her tumblr entries. Her obsession with you is rather strange and disturbing.

If you locked your journal for your friends only, I wouldn't blame you. For her to actually go back to your previous entries to see what you like and what you dislike (and for her to blog about it) takes it to a whole new level of creepiness.

To disagree on a topic is one thing, to express your hatred for a person because you don't share the same views is another.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that is what is so creepy. Surely she can find enough people she likes to read to follow. I mean - get a life is overused, but pretty appropriate here.

[angelajewell.livejournal.com]

Wow. She sounds like my fiancee's crazy ex. If you ever get an unmarked package in the mail, I'd throw it away if I were you. She seems like the unstable type...

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Thankfully my address is not on the internet or I'd be getting letters in blood :P

[gingifere.livejournal.com]

Why don't they just not read your posts...

I honestly don't understand why people get so angry with other people's views and opinions. Not everyone is going to agree with your views/opinions, but to publicly bitch about you/rant is utterly pointless. I'm sorry you've had to be subjected to the crazier side of fandom.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Pretty much this. If something annoys me, I simply do not read it, just if I don't like a drama, I simply do not watch it.

[kuroidi.livejournal.com]

so how old do you think this person is? I say about 13. Amusing posts indeed. someone might explaining what "hatereads" are? Maybe I'm old but if you don't like the person posting, why bother reading their posts to begin with?
oh internet culture :P

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

She says 23 on he info. Thus is too old to change, I'd imagine.

Yup. If I don't like, I don't read, and am happier for it.

[katranna.livejournal.com]

Hahahah she is weird. Especially since you are such a "rape apologist" that you outright refuses to watch dramas where the heroes are remotely rapey, even when loved by others. And while having sex with someone lest your cover be blown may be considered as having sex "under duress" the duress is certainly not placed there by the dude one is having sex with but by the situation (and the choice to go undercover in that fashion)? Or else each time a lady spy goes undercover and has sex with a mark to create intimacy and gather information, he is raping her, even if he has no idea what the situation is.

Anyway, there may be emotional manipulation and all sorts if ethically iffy things involved, but ASKING someone to have sex with you is not exactly rape. And I say this as a rah-rape rape culture is evil angry feminist.

The best thing is that she takes your blog so bizarrely seriously, much more so than even you take your blog. I mean, she's treating it as Required Reading In the Fandom or something. It's kinda funny to insist on hate-reading some chick who likes to talk about tv shows she watches in her free time when she's not working or watching her baby and isn't even thinking about the blog exept as a fun diversion. But to her, your fun-diversion blog is a Big Deal.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

I am a horrible cousin, Happy Belated Birthday!!!! If you PM me your addy, I have something to send to you. Also, come visit! You can crash with me! I know this place that does awesome vegan ice-cream. /tempts

The hilarious thing is that in the drama itself she isn't even doing it because she thinks he will blow her cover (either on purpose or because he'll investigate and find out the truth unless she distracts him). She has no idea he thinks she may be a spy and it is just as well, because he doesn't - he has no idea she is undercover (is not the brightest bulb ever, tbh). The most he suspects her of is liking another dude and teaming up with that dude to steal stuff but she doesn't even know that! So yeah, while demanding you have sex as proof of love is not a good thing, how it becomes in any way rape is beyond me. (Also, she physically lured him somewhere, threw him on the bed and tried to make out with him some eps back despite his repeated attempts to get out of there and she is the stronger one of the two, and nobody in fandom made a peep, which was odd. This drama may have problematic gender dynamics but the problems go both ways. I happen to love dysfunction in fiction but I am not claiming theirs is a relationship one should emulate).

Exactly. This is a fun way for me to unwind because nobody in my RL likes dramas - it's a means not to bore my husband to death by talking about it. It's not some sort of fandom Mecca.

"I never even thought anyone much outside of flist read me"

Quite a few of us, probably :)

I can't imagine what I would say to a post like that.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Oh, wow, thank you :)

I am just boggled someone is so invested into someone/something they loathe so much.

[walkwithheroes.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry you have an anti-fan. But, in the world of Asian entertainment - you'd be a major idol. (Anti-fans = popular). I'm just kidding, I'm actually really sorry that you have a slightly creepy stalker.

If you don't agree with someone's posts - don't read them. This person seems to have an odd obsession with disliking you.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Pretty much. Surely there are more fun hobbies.

The internet continues to be srs bizness.

[village.livejournal.com]

Take it for the compliment it is. If I don't like something I don't read it but from the fact that she's managed to form all these various opinions of you and consider you her - I laugh - nemesis, she clearly is drawn to your journal and spends a lot of time thinking about your opinions.

Seriously though, dude, you have ANTIFANS. I think we should laugh about this because it's so ridic. I guess that officially means you've made it, huh? ;)

Re: The internet continues to be srs bizness.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

I know :) Maybe I should strut down the street like Hallyu Queen Choi Ji Woo :) (Does that mean I get to make out with Lee Jin Wook? because if so..damn!)

[tihanasan.livejournal.com]

Wow, some people really, if you don’t like it don't read. Rape apologist, what the... I’m not even going there because it is just too silly. She doesn't get why people like your blog and respect you. Well, let me help with that. I like your blog because it is informative, fun and well written. I lurk daily and post seldom but with this unwarranted hate directed at you here is some love and appreciation coming from me. Also it makes me feel good that there is another professional mom in her thirties who shares such interests, in my RL nobody has ever heard of kdrama or jdrama. Love the comment in Russian, I always knew that being able to read Cyrillic will come handy.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Thank you :)

Yes, I mainly started posting because I don't know any other fans in rl :)

[(Anonymous)]

Well, I don't wonder anymore about the state of the world now when I see that some people can be so stupid about TV dramas... I guess they are the kind of people who can physically and for real blast others when they do not agree about politics or religion...
It is really sad....and frightening.

Emma

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Honestly, it's dramas. Let it go, people. I just don't get it.

[lydzi.livejournal.com]

What?

i have never talked to her and yet i know that one day we will destroy each other in pitched battle

Omg, lol? Ok. What on Earth?

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

LOLOL I love this GIF!
