I know what it is, NeverHappened. I've unfortunately come across a surprising amount of Alpha/Omega in the search for terrible fanfiction to mock. I mean never understood as in "why do people write this shit then post it online because this is fucked up?".
 
I just thought of something... What if, centuries from now, anthropologists are studying the culture of our time and they stumble upon this trove of terrible fanfictions? :'( And what if everything we know of the culture of ancient Greece was actually just based on THEIR terrible fanfictions? :'(

Edited to post: That would definitely make more sense of literally everything involving the Olympians' love-lives. What if those stories were just early Marysue x superhero fanfics?
 
I'm starting to REALLY hope these columbine fangirls are mainly just trolls now.

Ehh, Souvanarrath (sp?) and friends showed that they can be pretty serious about what they want to do in the real world.
 
So this isn't "horrible," exactly, but one subgenre of fanfic I just don't get is the totally mundane AU for a fantastic setting. The most common forms of this are "high school drama" and "falling in love in a cafe" but there are plenty of other kinds as well and they all have nothing in common with the source material besides character names. The fact that there are people who find Captain America and Iron Man beating back a Skrull invasion to be less interesting than people named "Tony Stark" and "Steve Rogers" making out in a coffee shop is bizarre to me.

Yeah, the mundane AU fics like high school & coffee shops/cafes are so boring. I never understood the appeal, either.

I have seen Hell.

Never understood the whole Alpha/Omega bullshit. Never understood Real Person Fics. Both are fucking creepy, the former being actually rapey (not the bs SJW definition) and the latter treating real life people like fictional characters. This mixes the two and I'm probably masochistic enough to read it, just to see how bad it gets.

The Alpha/Beta/Omega/Whatever thing is a special kind of abomination. How anyone (aside from furfags) finds that sexy is beyond me.:cryblood:

Real Person fanfics, especially shipping fics, are really weird. This is not a fictional character, it's a living (or dead) person.

It's not a cool fantasy story about H.P. Lovecraft meeting Harry Houdini, or historical fiction, but a celebrity crush gone strange and a bit too far.
 
Oh yeah, when SJWs write they're always inserting their typical buzzwords into their writing. It's pretty bizarre to see characters (who never do this in their original canon mind you) suddenly speak about friendzones, fat-shaming, representation...

Like, these people must realize that real people don't speak/are overly concerned with Internet slang, right?

This is a little less horrifying, and more exasperating, but why would anyone think this was good writing? Who says this shit during a college party?
I have no idea where these characters are from, but I doubt they give this much of a shit about clothing stores.

Some kid liked one of my fics, so I checked out their profile, and I saw... this.

Well, our dear Reverend Lovejoy was revealed to have written several fics. Chris has been doing a reading of one, but he has several others that are just as cringey and highly unlikely to be "jokes" like that one was supposed to be. Also because he obviously wants attention for that specific fic.

First up, a sampling or two from his Kung Fu Panda one:
"It started out as a game, a fun little practical joke that Tigress and Viper agreed to at the rest of the furious five's expense. They had both agreed to pretend to be in a relationship with each other for a few weeks in order to mess with their male counterparts in the furious five. It was an extremely rare attempt at humor from the normally stoic kung fu masters and they liked to think that they had succeeded in their little joke."

Something something show don't tell

"You deflowered me." Viper said with a cold expression, that may have been an indication that the snake whom Tigress adored might have had a psychological disorder. "And I will never forgive you."

Because not enjoying rape = psychological disorder. No, seriously.

Yep, the whole story is a rape fantasy about two girls full of repetition and redundancy. Get used to this theme. Now in Spanish!

He also has two Animaniacs fics:
"What's not to feel right about?" Rita asked with a smile on her face as she suppressed a chuckle as she watched Patrick star getting hit in the head with a coconut on the television screen.

Spongebob is the best way to get your date horny. Take notes, Kiwis.

"I know, it's just that…" Dot hesitated for a few seconds before continuing her sentence. "…I really think that we should tell people about our relationship." Dot said nervously to the singing cat beside her.


Rude, Rita. You shouldn't sing while people are trying to talk.

"On our next date, can you please make sure that your brothers aren't filming us." Rita said as she gestured towards Wakko, who was holding his ipod and presumably filming the two lovers on the couch while his brother stood beside him with a slightly sheepish grin on his face.

Oh, that's not creepy at all.

Cannibalism, apparently.

"You're a tough little bitch aren't you?" Dot said with a smile on her face as she rummaged through a cupboard that was attached to the wall. Under normal circumstances Rita would have cringed at the fact that the warner sister was currently using her older brother's severed head as a stepladder to reach the high cupboard. But given all that she seen tonight, that small act of inhumanity seemed too insignificant to have any effect.

"That's alright though, it's not much fun killing something that doesn't fight back." Dot said with a slight distorted smile on her face as she reached into the back of the cupboard and pulled out what appeared to be a pot full of a liquid that Rita couldn't see. Grinning to herself, Dot jumped down off of her deceased brother's head and carried the pot to the stove.

"It's like killing a fly or euthanizing a puppy. If there's no fight there's no point." Dot said as she placed the pot on the stove and turned on the burner it was resting on.


Hard to take you seriously with that formatting.

"When I was hired by warner to 'erase' the cast of a cancelled cartoon I couldn't have been happier." Dot said with a smile as she started to remember how she had lured the cast of the tiny toons show into a giant oven and baked them into a giant pie, which she served on the set during the filming of one of the animaniacs episodes.

Did you get his reference? Did ya? Did ya?

pls clap


"I'll bet you taste like chinese food." Dot said with a smile as she held the boiling pot of what Rita realize was boiling oil directly above the cats body.

"I like chinese food." Dot said with a laugh as she poured the oil over the cat and watched as the cat's flesh started to burn.

"Kill me." Rita begged

Right there with ya, Rita.

tl;dr Lovejoy is an edgelord who gets off to lesbian furries.

"Kill me" indeed. There is so much wrong with these fics. Reverend Lovejoy, go back to lying about chatlogs, your writing sucks.
