So, part of me wants to watch FMA. But part of me also remembers how FMA fandom destroyed any interest I had in that show. I don't like rabid fangirls. I also didn't like how it was considered a GOD AMONG ANIME just because it had more exposure and did better ratings-wise than other anime. I like FMA, it's fun, but I can't get into the ZOMG FMA'S BACK THIS IS THE GREATEST DAY OF MY LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIFE mentality of so many. I may wait a few episodes and then stream.

Winning quote of the day:
"I think rape is when the rapist is the unappealing villain so the victim has no chance of loving him, and non-con is when the rapist is attractive and sympathetic so the victim gets into it and falls for him by the end. That's just my rudimentary understanding, though."
-yaoi fangirl rationalizing warnings for posted yaoi manga

Wow, fangirls, just wow.

'Rudimentary understanding' kind of kills me. In a not-good way.

I'm really excited by FMA Remake, as my journal might suggest. At the same time, I'm saying far, FAR away from the fandom. That last time was...rather SPECIAL. Let me do my fangirling in peace, all ye madwomen!

Yaoi requires advanced physics, ya know.

Oh, if I get back into FMA, that is EXACTLY what I will do.
