Don't freakin' challenge me...
Sep. 22nd, 2004 01:52 pmYeah, I'm still trying to goad
kylielee1000 with bad Atlantis McKay fic. Because, dammit, she should write more. Heh.
Do you know that there are levels and levels of deliberate badfic? I didn't actually realize until I tried it. There's the whole question of proper punctuation and grammar, for starters. Then there's "exactly how much do I castrate the characters?" And "how hysterical should I make the inner monologue?" And so on, and so on.
I actually had to eviscerate this a LOT, because my internal defense mechanisms kept interjecting snarky self-conscious bits. It's hard to be that earnest in something so very wrong! I apologize in advance, because the "oh god, it burns" version is funnier than this. As is the MST3K verson.
So, yes. Badfic. Wrongfic. Verybadwrongfic. And it still might not be sincere enough for
kylielee1000. And yet? It could have been worse. But I'm not going out drinking until tonight, so this is as bad as I could get without anesthesia.
( Don't follow this. No, really. It's not good. )
Oh, that's foul. And it should have been funnier. The universe has already begun to punish me, because I brought the wrong kind of soup for lunch today. Campbell's Mexican Style Fiesta "taco flavored [sic] soup with beef & pasta"? Ugh.
