Rant 08. No Such Thing As Perfection

❊Dear Diary❊ » From the Mind of AFF users

 

by ChaoticDarkAngel

 

I notice a lot of author's on here, and many other writer's strive to make their stories and characters 'perfect'. For some reason that word just bugs me a bit. Yes being 'perfect' isn't a bad thing; but let's be honest here...is any writer on here perfect? I highly doubt it. Even with the most wonderful author's on here, everyone has a flaw and that's why I don't call any writer on here 'perfect'.

When people write mary sue or gary stu character's, it bugs me also. The author writes about character's not having any flaws, because in real life they are not perfect. I don't blame them on that part I guess; secretly I think all of us, deep down, want to be a perfect person.

My character's I'll admit: I do see some mary stu in them and I apologize for that, I'll try not to make them gary stu's ^^; (Using gary stu term because I love writing male character's more than female ones) I'll try to give them better flaws and make them not too likeable, or not too cute/innocent.

But I just like writing about the cute/innocent type of character, so I apologize if all my character's may seem like that ha ha.

But anywho back on topic here.

There is no such thing as perfection. Yes you can improve on your grammar/spelling and accept constructive criticism, but if someone is giving constructive criticism you absolutely can NOT FORCE YOUR OPINIONS/THOUGHTS ON OTHER PEOPLE. Those that do that, you have to be nicer when you give criticism.

Try to balance the nice/harshness in criticism alright? ^^ I'm not a critique, thus I don't give critiques I just comment/give my thoughts or opinions on a story. Fanfiction is just a hobby for some, a way to relieve stress of the real world and or if they're depressed and you people have to respect that.

Anywho I guess this is just, how I feel about writers that aim and strive for perfection in their stories. I apologize for any grammar/spelling error's here I'm working on that still ^^;

Chapter 13: I don't understand the whole ullzang thing. Personally, I think a lot of them look pretty creepy, especially the boys. The only ullzang I particularly enjoy is Hong Younggi. They're cute only cute sometimes. I mean it's pretty stupid of me to say this, even though each culture has its own ideals, but ullzangs are definitely the epitome of Korean superficiality. Unrealistically and exaggerated, that is.

Chapter 14: I don't get how a kpoper can be homophobic. It's just not possible to not come across something gay in the kpop world.

I'm a hardcore 2min shipper and I guess I kind of do the "2min is real because of this" thing but I always mean it as a joke. Idk if it always comes off as a joke, but it is, I know my ship or any ship, especially homoual, probably isn't real but it's fun to believe.

And about being able to tell if someone is gay, I try to actually judge this after watching them on reality shows, bts, concerts, etc. I feel like you can tell from the little things they do without even realizing they're doing it. I mean take nu'est for example, you would automatically think Ren is gay, he had a freaking fairy wand in his bag because he thought it would come in handy, what is more gay than that? But tbh I think Aron acts gayer (more gay?) than Ren does. He's really touchy-feely with the other members and sometimes I swear to god he's trying to flirt with them. I guess Ren kind of does it too but to me it seems kind of deliberate and fanservice-y.

Chapter 14: Ah I use that response to if one of my friends in real life asks me that I'll say 'So what even if he is gay? Won't stop me from liking him, at least I'm not a homophobic' or something along the lines.

And to you fangirls/fanboys that would literally turn your back on your favorite group if one of the members came out and said they were gay shame on you. I've heard fangirls say crap like 'Oh I hope oppa isn't gay' please so what even if he is? =.= Delusional fangirls...nice to see more open-minded ones :) I'd love them even more if they did come out and say they were gay or lesbian ^^ Love is love.

I'm a hardcore Yunjae shipper also but even if Yunho or Jaejoong may have girlfriends or like girls I'm still gonna ship them or any pairing I like and still support the group no matter what ^^ Some fangirls give up on a pairing because 'they don't think it's real' and it's like...*facepalms*

Chapter 7: Oh my god the rant pissed me off a bit. Why do fangirls try so hard to prove their idols are straight and not gay or lesbian? Who cares what their uality is! If my bias came out and said they were gay I'd still support them >< (Haven't read that one)

I hate it so much when people bash fangirls saying 'Our oppas are not gay stop writing fics on them!!' ...Yeah uh have they not heard of freedom of speech? We can write whatever the hell we want.

If people have a problem with , DON'T ____ING READ IT AND PRETEND YOU NEVER SAW IT IF YOU DID READ IT.

Yes I'm a little harsh here but it's natural to defend something you love. I don't care for hetero but good god I don't write a tone of rants on how much I hate straight couples. GROW UP PEOPLE PLEASE.

Phew! Sorry if I offended you, not sure if you're a fan or not but if you are..I'm sorry you had to upload that rant, I wouldn't have accepted it personally if it was bashing users that write .
