Welcome to Oddball, the fanlisting for MSNBC's unique news show

Countdown with Keith Olbermann

[Berry Cool]

1. Nope, 'tisn't me.

There are certain KO fans who are...well, shall we say...into certain kinds of fantasies about him and, uh, other male newscasters/sportscasters that I'm just not into.

I kind of steer clear of 'em myself.

2. They do have some cute avatars

[Berry Cool]

3. The avatars and the photos are heartmeltingly wonderful...

...the fantasies, not so much. :scared:

[crispini]

4. Ok, I must be missing a link somewhere?

'cause I'm just seeing the fanlisting, not any fanfic?

Of course, maybe I don't wanna know... :scared:

[Berry Cool]

5. You probably don't.

It's not on that site. It's just that certain names in the fandom are names I associate with...er, stuff I've seen on the Internets that, well, squicks me out, and that I really don't think should be done involving real people (otherwise, if it floats your boat, whatever...it just doesn't float mine, is all.) So I stay away...

6. Yeah, it seems a little weird to write fanfic about real people.

I'm not gonna say I haven't indulged in reading smutty fanfic from time to time-- because, honestly, some of it's really pretty good-- or do I mean bad? :evilgrin: but writing fanfic about real people is just over the line, IMO.... It's the kind of thing that I wouldn't want done about ME if I were in their shoes, ya know?
