WTF?

[elspethdixon]

So, can any of you explain to me what the heck has happened to Thor fans on tumblr?  The last time I saw reactions like this to an actor getting married, it was LOTRPS and J2 fandom over Orlando Bloom dating.. I forget which actress, and Jensen Ackles marrying whomever it is he's married to (Daneel Harris?  Or was that Jared Padalecki?), and in those cases the guys were the center of huge, tinhat-filled RPS fandoms.

Also, what happened on on the Avengers kink meme?  I stop checking it or a few months, and suddenly there's (possible?) plagarism and long discussion threads on The Meme That Must Not Be Named about whether or not it really was plagarism wherein no one actually seems to know anything about it.

tumblr's for the crazies, it seems

I'm choking with laughter and glee over their tears. Same thing with them discovering that Fassbender (the guy who played Magneto) is back with Zoe Kravitz. I've never grown so gleeful on despair.

I've read the fandom wank report now, and the quotes in it from people who are so terribly hurt and offended that he "hid" the fact that he's married are way funnier than they should be.

Didn't Fassbender and Kravitz's break-up involve him hitting her? Why would you ("you" in this case being the fangirls who were upset at him being "taken") want to get together with a guy who it sounds like very probably knocked his previous girlfriend around?

Ummm no, not Kravtiz

Fassbender had a falling out with his previous gf before Kravitz (I am ashamed that I know this fact). I can't remember her name, but not Kravitz. Since it's all alleged, and charges were not filed, etc (I don't know the story), but long story short, it's not Kravitz.

Man, tumblr is amazing. Like, on one hand, it's good for picspams and videos and the rest. On the other hand, the fans are crazed.
