I just spent a couple of days going through Stephanie Brown fan tumblrs, and then today I checked on my regularly followed Titans tumblrs.
It's like taking a swig of acid after enjoying a lovely milkshakeand waffles. It's like getting puked on. Ugh. The Steph fen were so much more optimistic! And were nicer when they ranted! And were not just randomly horrible!
God damn it, I love the Titans, but I think I may have to divorce their online fandom again.
*uses awesome Donna icon for comfort, goes off to hug cats and/or plushies, and reread Steph's Batgirl series*

Having just come off of a day going through a Hank Pym Tumblr (and really, if any Tumblr should be an utter crapshoot, it's one dedicated to Hank Pym) and finding nothing but bwee there, I'm really wondering how a Titans Tumblr could be anything but awesome. They're obviously Doing It Wrong.

*grimace* There are actually a lot of shitheads on tumblr. I have one rule about tumblr and it's: "I am not allowed to get a tumblr because I will start fights."
Was it Pym Particles? Because I've bene to that one a few times because of reblogs, and it seemed okay.

Yes! Well, technically, there are two Pym Tumblrs (the other being a Fuck Yeah! called "It's Fucking Science") and both are fairly awesome. Pym Particles has some of the sillier posts, though, including scans from that one series where Hank had two ant sidekicks who liked to watch "horror documentaries" on Animal Planet (about anteaters, natch).

*knows things* Huh. That's not enough to make me like Hank Pym, but still. vaguely cute sounding.

Date: 2011-09-02 11:04 pm (UTC)Why yes, I'm being extremely judgemental and making assumptions; the gods know the Titans fandom does the same.
