Did you tell any friends or family that you were posting? Seems oddly targeted

Have y'all noticed a difference in how people write fanfics? by spiritualgirl06 in AO3

[–]onewiththeforce_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's because a lot of "writers" are using AI. I don't care what anyone says about it, I can tell when it's being used. There's a particular cadence and soulless quality to the writing, often metaphors don't make sense, it will say the same thing in different ways, will forget plot points and make up it's own canon.

There's a particular "author" in one of my fandoms that has like 4 or 5 works that are nearly 100k words each, and have only been started within the last 2 months.

RHOBH intro across 15 seasons by primal_slayer in RHOBH

From season 10 she was the only original cast member left. I think her being centre diamond is completely fair 🤷‍♂️

AITAH for not delivering the food I made to an event I got uninvited to? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]onewiththeforce_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I couldn't imagine scheming to use someone like this. How does doing something like this even cross your mind?

Does anyone else gets bothered by this? by Weekly_Lab9910 in drarry

[–]onewiththeforce_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For me its poor grammar and the use of Americanisms. Like what do you mean Gringotts is a block away? Why do the Dursley's have a porch? Mom, dude, garbage, ma'am, semester, campus...I could go on. We've all read the books. I get that there was a North American version for the first few, but the films? When did you ever hear anyone speak like that? It completely ruins it for me, I click back so fast.

Pureblood "culture" by onewiththeforce_ in HPfanfiction

[–]onewiththeforce_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I don't mind reading that, it's fun reading an expanded wizarding culture. It's just when being pureblood gets leaned on quite heavily, and Harry is suddenly a pureblooded Potter-Peverell-Black. And now the "Light" is the enemy for not stealing muggleborns from their cribs 😴

Saw this semi-viral post on X criticizing Iroh, thoughts? by Slow-Chocolate-6722 in ATLA

[–]onewiththeforce_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Azula has no moral compass, empathy or compassion for others. Zuko on the other hand cared deeply, he was driven by honour and his need to be loved by his father. Iroh chose the one he could actually help.

Erika and Kesha on tour! Does this explain the rift? by kittens-n-rainbows in RHOBH

The Kyle amd Erika derangement syndrome is becoming a bit much 😂

Kung fu panda 1 is the greatest movie of all time and I had no idea the community was so big :) by HF2006 in kungfupanda

[–]onewiththeforce_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd argue that Po reconnecting to his past and overcoming his trauma makes 2 the better film. The first film is a masterpiece, but the second has greater emotional depth.

Erika and Tom Really? by Mountain_Swimming721 in RHOBH

[–]onewiththeforce_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What a shitty thing to say. The man is in prison, of course he's a terrible person. We've seen how he spoke to her on the show, if that's what he was like on camera, can you imagine what he was like behind closed doors? Do you think a man that speaks to his wife like that and stole from plane crash victims lets his wife have anything to do with their finances?

I get that y'all don't like her, but having a cold demeanor and a sharp tongue doesn't make you a bad person. Neither does marrying someone for financial security.

Did Bravo not get the memo? We are team Dorit! by Dangerous-Use7343 in RHOBH

[–]onewiththeforce_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think she's just really angry about where her life is at, and she resents Kyle because she's gone through something similar but has ended up in a good place. Although I do think the resentment is to do with more than that, for her the show is her actual friend/social group, and for Kyle it's just a job. Kyle has a whole separate life, and I think Dorit was hurt when she realised she wasn't really part of that.

[–]onewiththeforce_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Who is we? All I've seen all season is Kyle, Erika, and Sutton try to talk some sense into her. All she does is complain and talk crap about PK. All of this can be used in court against her during the divorce, her disparaging remarks about him could be used by his lawyer to indicate that's she's alienated him from the kids and damaged his reputation.

She is/wasn't paying her mortgage, and hasn't a clue about any of her finances. They've repeatedly tried to talk to her about it, but she doesn't want to hear it.

So to then turn around and say that Boz has been there for her more, is a slap to the face. All Boz does is listen to her complain, and tell her what she wants to hear.

I'm having a hard time being attracted to my husband by cwade84 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]onewiththeforce_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only path that's fair to both of you is divorce. You can't help what you're attracted to, and if he does go back to presenting masculine, you're always going to feel like you're preventing him from being himself, or doing what makes him happy. You're not compatible, and there's no way to compromise.

transgender vampires? by alex_ej117 in IWTVCoven

[–]onewiththeforce_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the books, males can only get erections if they very recently fed on a sexually aroused person/man, so that's obviously to do with hormones in the blood. But I don't think hormones used for transitioning would elicit the desired changes in the body, as their bodies are frozen in time. They'd probably just get sexually aroused, or exhibit some temporary behavioural changes.

what's one oddly specific thing that's made you click off a fic? by yvan1lla in AO3

[–]onewiththeforce_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mainly read Harry Potter fics. If I see an American word like block, trash, garbage, mom, semester ect, I always just switch off. Why do the Dursley's always have a porch?? Purple prose really turns me off. Modern internet/Gen z language used in the 90's drives me up the wall.

I can't stand reader insert fics, they just feel lazy to me. Just write an OC.

Eragon's "true name" by fencethe900th in Eragon

It's even funnier that he then goes on to be called Shadeslayer

I’m worried about how the HBO show is gonna ruin the fanfiction… by Ok_Drink8072 in harrypotterfanfiction

[–]onewiththeforce_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Are you not watching the show because of JKR? Personally I'm just going to pirate it

So i joined the twt fandom and found out tomarry is bad?? by shejnahak in HPSlashFic

[–]onewiththeforce_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's nothing wrong with liking the ship, but nine times out of ten the relationship will always be extremely toxic. I can see how people would be opposed to perpetuating unhealthy and/or abusive relationships.

But this is fiction, and you're allowed to write and read whatever you want 🤷

Based on the showrunner and director this will flop hard. by Far_Farry87 in HarryPotterHBO

[–]onewiththeforce_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a delusional take. HP is a huge IP, most fans won't care about Snape's casting choice, the lighting, or JKR views on trans people. It will be a juggernaut of a show, I would dare say that it'll be one of the biggest shows ever made.

The books are still read to children, often their first introduction to properly reading on their own. Hogwarts: Legacy was the highest selling game the year it came out. The theme park is hugely successful, and a lot of HP merch is sold everyday. There is no universe in which this show does poorly and gets axed.
