Some of those are a little surprising, but for the Bsb authors - hey, go us!! ;D
-
LMAO Walker Texas Ranger?
-
Yeah... like I said, some of them made me go: *blink*... *twitch*
Some of those I've never even heard of!! LOL
-
I will say, though, that Walker Texas Ranger is pretty damn entertaining LMFAO. I tried to get into Dancing With the Stars a few weeks ago and ended up watching Walker instead cause it caught my attention way more.
-
^ yes compared to Dancing with the Stars I can see why that would happen lol
-
^ LMAO! Yeah...
-
Wow... Backstreet is right after Harry and right before the Senshi.
Cool. :) We rock!
Though I wonder why Haruka and Michiru more than the others... ???
-
I'm not saying this because I want to undermine the fabulousness of the boys being second... but the Chinese Backstreet Boys are kind of a huge thing right now if you watched VH1 when they did their top 20 internet stars they were like number 5 or something. Soooooo... they've probably helped spur the BSB searches.
-
This was specifically for fanfic though, not just Bsb in general. I'm not sure the Chinese Backstreet Boys would have done much for Bsb fanfiction...
-
wow seriously? and here i thought BSB fanfiction has been fading from it's glorious days! lol
and um, some of those on the list made me go 'wow, they read those?!' lol :o
-
^ LMAO I know!! It really is a strange list.
-
I know I have never heard of many of those things lol
-
Bon Jovi fan fics? LOL Who writes those?
-
Bon Jovi I can understand, cause it's really not much different from what we do... if you like Bon Jovi as much as we like Bsb, why not? I like their music; I don't care enough about them as people to want to write fiction about them, but that's just me.
-

I love their music, but somehow I just can't picture Bon Jovi fan fics lol
-
Bon Jovi fan fics? LOL Who writes those?
ummm.... well....
ok just kidding, I've never written any other fandom... but I like Bon Jovi!!!
-
ummm.... well....
ok just kidding, I've never written any other fandom... but I like Bon Jovi!!!
Hehe... Don't scare me like that Kelly! I'm like Oops... Did I just stick my foot in my mouth? lol
-

LOL I know... it's hard for me to picture fan fics about most other fandoms, just cause there are few other things I like enough to write about them.
That said, some fandoms are just WEIRD. Like fanfics about the Bible... or Super Mario Brothers... or the Rugrats or some other little kid show... that's just weird to me LOL. And all of those exist on fanfic.net, plus many more weird ones!
-
LMAO fanfics about the bible?
I shudder at the thought of Moses and Abraham slash.
Am I going to hell for that one?
-
Yea there are some weird ones. I mean I can understand most of the stuff on AC. Like it would be hypocritical to not see how people write Nsync fan fics cuz its almost the same formula. And I enjoy like the CSI and Law and Order fan fics, but yea some are just weird...
I'm a big fan of VC Andrews and they consider orginal fiction written in her style to be fan fiction... I'm not sure about that one. That's kind of a gray area right?
-

LMAO Mare!
Sadly it prolly does exsist in some deep dark corner of the internet...
-
LMAO Mare!

LMAO too Mare! and I'm sure everything exists in the deep dark corners of the internet...
I might one day attempt a Smallville fanfic... maybe... but that would probably be the only other fandom I would write.
-
Hehe... Don't scare me like that Kelly! I'm like Oops... Did I just stick my foot in my mouth? lol
sorry... I can't help it! I live on the edge! -lol
-
I am one day going to write my Numb3rs/BSB crossover, one day but I don't think I could ever write in another genre as conmfortably as BSB.
I wonder if there is Sesame Street fanfic? lmao
-
^ There probably is. Seriously, check fanfic.net - there's fanfic about EVERYTHING.
-
I attempted to write Yuugiou fan fic once. :-[
The very first one was a Yuugiou/BSB crossover. I wrote all but four chapters at the end, never finished those chapters, and never posted it. It was inginious... And totally OOC... :D

Now I'm picturing Big Bird/ Snufflelufugus (and I know i TOTALLY spelled that long but I realized I had NO clue how to spell his name lol) slash LMAO!

LMAO especially with the creepy way he talks I can hear him now....

OOOH I didn't know it was fanfics!!! that makes the list soooo much better :-D
And I'm sure you've seen published fanfics about the bible ... Marek Halter has written a series of books of women from Genesis so has Orson Scott Card. Anita Diamant has written The Red Tent.... these are all bible fanfic if you really think about it.
but yeah *shudders* I'm sure there's some stuff you just don't want to see done in bible fanfic.
-

"come here my big yellow banana..."
LMFAO Mare!! That REALLY REALLY cracked me up, but maybe even more so cuz bananas are extremely funny to me thanks to a certain inside joke I shared with some other BSB fans

LOL yes very true, I didn't think about that. I loved the Red Tent, that was an awesome book.

You can't go wrong with a banana for comedic purposes! lol

:o I love VC Andrews, have since I was 11 yrs old (prolly abit to mature for my age but I was used to reading whatever was in my parents book shelves) and what really made me get really involved was it was based on a true story. I've always wanted to know if the mansion was real or not!
I think the weirdest fan fic I came across was Muppets, and it was a sex fan fic too which was really disturbing!!!! :o
I think miss piggy was doing beaker who was eating out animal who kept screaming woman woman... that was only on the first page *shudders*
There's some sick sick people out there!!! :-X
I'm curious as too how old most of the Harry potter fan fics are, if they're young what do there parents think if it's way about there age limit etc as most authors are on top of warnings and ratings etc...
-
I don't read Harry Potter or it's fan fics, but some of my friends read the actual books, and they're in college. So I imagine there are some older Harry Potter authors also.

LMFAO at the Muppets sex fic!!! I read a slash where Kevin and Nick CALLED each other "Piggy" and "Kermit" and thought that was pretty disturbing, but yours definitely wins. What kind of freak writes something like that for real??
There might be some little kids writing HP fanfics out there, but I'm sure a lot of the HP authors are in the same age group as the writers on here - late teenes, twenties, maybe even older. I'm about to graduate from college, and I LOVE Harry Potter!! Never could get into the fanfic for it though - nothing compares to the real thing for me.
-
;D You know whats funny?? I've read that slash with Nick and Kevin. Weird huh?
I'm the same with HP fanfic, though I did start to read one that had Nick at Hogwarts with the gang but I kinda lost the link when my old comp blew up.
Wasn't too bad for a crossover.
-
I've read a few HP fanfics and this is what i learnt after going to their fanfic sites, lol...they have beta readers ready at your service. And when you submit your first chapter, you'll be assigned a beta reader who'll work with you throughout your fic, so no new chapter gets updated without prior work with your beta reader. They dont take mistakes lightly probably cause i think their stories are based on a published series of books so they want to make sure it meets the literary standards?
But yeah...they have TONS of slash and I dont know how they do it cause that would totally ruin the characters for me. Also, the fics that i've actually read and liked were written by women in their thirties so i guess they do have adult writers in that fandom.
-
Yeah, it seems like HP fanfic is pretty hardcore. I don't really read it, but I'm a big HP fan, so I've come across it. I'm not a fan of the slash though... that's just wrong, I think, to take JK Rowling's characters and warp them that way. Harry loves GINNY, not DRACO, damnit!! LOL
-

3. Haruka and Michiru - who?
11. Yu Yu Hakusho and Inuyasha Crossover - huh?
Three is the two lesbionic senshi from Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon (Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune). Eleven is a crossover fic about a boy who works for the underworld slaying demons (Yu Yu Hakusho) and a demon dog from feudal Japan who goes on hunt for the missing jewel shards with a girl from modern Japan (Inuyasha).
Yay for brief explanations! :D
