I'm just curious if anyone else feel like they don't really belong in any fandoms :/ I prefer to just enjoy the thing and only scrape the surface of its fandom. Most of the things I like don't really have fandoms following them or their fandoms are long dead or I don't get involved with them. I try to get into stuff with fandoms but I'm too lazy or unmotivated to sit down and watch a show or make art or fanfiction :'( I've only watched two animes to completion (Ginga Nagareboshi Gin and Ginga Densetsu Weed which is basically a bunch of dogs killing each other), I got disinterested in Doctor Who after the ninth doctor, I dropped Erin Hunter's Warriors series because I often found myself being angry and annoyed by the characters. Does anyone else feel this way or am I as lame as this picture portrays me?

Anyways I'm just bored and rambling :P Feel welcome to share your thoughts!

I have many special interests, which I guess could be equated to neurotypical "fandoms." The reason I'm replying is because I certainly don't share many interests with the people on this site! Lol. It seems that many people on here are into video games, anime, music/musicals, art, etc. I haven't really found many threads on the forums about things that I'm into. There aren't even many science-themed topics on the Lightning forum, for crying out loud! In a way, I like my special interests not having many fans, just because I like to be unique. But I do wish that I had more in common with the people on this site, since I frequent it so often. All the topics I start don't last long. I wish my thread about
Riverdale would have had more responses. I'd love to talk about that!

-shrugs- i dunno, i tried to get into fandoms but i just can't. i feel like i can't really make friends that well because most fandoms have the tiers of popularity plus there's almost always a whole bunch of drama and fighting.

I stay as far away from fandoms as possible because it's full of crazy shippers/theories and just
nope. I enjoy a lot of mainstream things but for the most part it's just me talking to my friends who also like the same thing. I was involved in a lot of fandoms in the past (even being a fairly well-known cosplayer) and things went from 0 to 10000 in a second with how people reacted to certain things and now I just.........stay....away....from all that...

i'm like really into the pieces of fiction i'm into, but i'm not in the
fandom , community if that's what your asking
i try to communicate with people who like it too, but when it comes to the community disusing ships, the standard fan fics everyone has read, the commonly accepted head cannons... i'm not really into it. i try, but its not for me. which seems like a good thing, because from the outside fandom wars look really draining. its like i ship and have crazy theories, but i don't like actively engaging people online about them. i don't consume fic or fan art, or even have a tumblr, diavant art, Ao3 or whatever to actively engage in fandom
which, if that's what you're referring to isn't uncommon at all. its just fandoms tend to be very, very loud

I used to be a huge fangirl of some major fandoms, but now I feel like I don't really belong to any rip
Sometimes fandoms can be really cringy/aggressive and like???? I don't really want anything to do with that

i feel like what i do now barely counts as being in a fandom anymore tbh. a while ago, i dropped ships (which make up like 90% of fandom stuff tbh), fan headcanons... now i just lurk and look at art of characters i like/occasionally talk about them.
this makes me sound like some sort of fandom hobo

Whoop whoop! Guess I ain't alone after all! Yeah I agree that fanbases can get really out of hand and a little extreme at times, I'm also not a big fan of shipping either. I currently have plans on writing some joke fanfiction but imma keep it to myself too :) I guess there's gotta be casuals so there's hardcores
