Your result for The Fan Fiction Personality Test...

The Mindgamer

Everything is possible, nothing is ever really over.

Fanfiction is a creative outlet for you. You don't intentionally write it, it just happens. You find inspiration in several fandoms, but are not obsessed with only one.


You like to explore "what if" situations. What if this character had never made this very choice? What if this event had taken place sooner, never, elsewhere? What if these people had never met?


You are likely to write Alternative Universes, fan seasons or sequels and just follow your (sometimes pretty strange) plot bunnies.

I feel the need to explain why I gave the answer I gave. It's your journal, you decide what goes in the post. I can see where this is going, trivialization of serious issues, though, but I tend to get protective of my own little private space. (That's why I use cuts and warn. Don't want to read, don't read, but don't tell me what to put on MY eljay.)

I'd like to know what they thought of Seinfeld' Soup Nazi episode. And I'd still want to hear them out, but I'd be annoyed that someone tells me what to do in my private space. I do like discussion etc, and I'd prefer that to just "Don't put that in your eljay it's offensive," I guess.

Edit: I don't think it's an expression I would use anyway, partly because I generally don't do fandom rants to start, partly because I don't like the expression very much, so obvs my answer is completely theoretical.

Edit 2: I apologize if my thoughts are so very disorganized. >.>

It does seem like the people against remove value the privacy/control of their own journal a lot, which is an interesting point, which is a point I completely understand even though I don't as much.

about the Seinfeld Soup Nazi episode, a couple of people have pointed out that they would be okay with such expression coming from people who are Jewish or Roma : Seinfeld being Jewish, he's "allowed" to make those sort of jokes.

No problem, I don't find your thoughts disorganised at all ^^

*snugs you* I read through all the comments of this post - people are saying incredibly interesting things about political correctness, freedom of speech, safe spaces, etc.

I don't think I would defriend automatically, because it's just such a terribly immature way to react, and well, I don't believe in cutting conversation off. You might be better off without this person on your flist, if they couldn't be bothered to discuss it with you.

>.> "NO SOUP FOR YOU" is probably still, to this day, my favorite Seinfeld quote.
