I like Doctor Who, but I haven't watched it in a long ass while, probably because A. the fandom rubbed me the wrong way and B. everyone gives me flack for watching the episodes out of order.

You should have told them that the order you watch the episodes in for a show about a time traveling alien doesn't matter, or that you were trying to watch it in normal chronological order, not the order that the main characters experienced it.

Anyways, what really brought these fandoms together. Is it as simple as they all like a BBC show with a handsome actor as the main character?

Supernatural isn't BBC. But for Sherlock and Doctor Who, a lot of it probably is the perceived ego boost from watching and enjoying a British show, along with the fangirling over pretty boys. Supernatural is all about the girls who get off on gay sexual tension from what I gather, though I've never seen it before.

My best guess is that the three shows combine to fill a lot of sperg wishlists. Sherlock gives you the distant, troubled asexual genius that they want to hug and teach to love- or at least watch Watson do it for them. Doctor Who covers the brilliant magical outside force that steps in, makes your boring life amazing, and boosts the hell out of your self-esteem- while still being distant and troubled enough for the hug-to-fix-them-forever. Supernatural covers the more sexual side, with enough innuendo to balance the lack of erotic thrill from the other two shows.

I dunno. Have these...people always existed or is modern life in the Western world just so easy for so many people that they have the time and materials and inclination to wrap themselves up so completely in these ridiculous fandoms...

My theory is that the majority of them are younger people who want a sense of belonging and community, and they find that in these fandoms and turn them into a religion of some sort. I think/hope a lot of them will grow out of it and feel really embarrassed.

Indeed, and even by season 4 the writers had noticed that the fans were dangerously obsessed with incest-pairings


With regards to the three shows, I love Doctor who (....mostly), really like supernatural (till about halfway through season 7, then i kinda lost patience), and kinda like Sherlock (eh, its good tv but I dont get it's craycray appeal), but still have no fucking clue as to how or why they get meshed up in superwholock so much

I don't know about "always", but there's a classic example from the 18th century. Some people just can't handle their fiction.

I'm still not sure how to feel about this.

One the one hand, my main exposure to SuperWhoLock fans has been them replying to pretentious hipster Tumblr posts by shoehorning in references to their show, which thoroughly ruins any mystique that may have been attached to the hipster posts, and I find that very amusing...

On the other hand, constantly shoehorning in references to a beloved obsession is exactly what makes other groups such as weeaboos and bronies the scum of the internet, and really the only reason I find SuperWhoLock hijinx entertaining is because it means infighting on Tumblr and I hate Tumblr enough that any infighting there is a very good thing.

"I can't stand this group of people, but is isn't personal or anything."
"AAAGH I'M GOING TO KILL YOU."
"Well, I guess by now it should be personal, but that was a single member of an entire group. I'll just tell this guy off, but give the group as a whole the benefit of the doubt."
"AAAGH WE'RE ALL GOING TO KILL YOU."
"Oh."
"AAAGH WE ACT ALL POLITE AND SHY BUT DEEP DOWN WE'RE REMORSELESS ANIMALS WHO'LL DO SOME OF THE CRAZIEST SHIT YOU'VE SEEN IN YOUR LIFE, ALL BECAUSE WE WATCH TV SHOWS ABOUT MURDER INVESTIGATION AND DEMON HUNTING AND TIME TRAVEL."
"Look. I understand you're young and all, but my actual intent and your reaction to my intent don't even.."
"AAAGH WE KNOW HOW TO HIDE A BODY."
"Ok, that sounds really dubious because you could be 12 for all I know."
"AAAGH ALL THE PEOPLE HERE WHO HAVE COMMITTED THE CRIME OF ARTICULATELY THREATENING YOU WITH BODILY HARM OVER THE INTERNET ARE AROUND 20 YEARS OLD. SOME OF US ARE COLLEGE SOPHOMORES, EVEN."

Cumberbatch is so weirdly fucked-up looking he is too distracting to take seriously. Why he is considered a sex object utterly eludes me.

A large part of it is the character of Holmes being impossible to seduce and unable to feel. The same thing happened with Brent Spiner. He's no super hunk but Data seemed to push a bunch of buttons for women because he was a robot. Like a weird "I want to be the woman who makes him feel" thing.

No no no. I'm not talking about how Holmes acts, and talking about how Cucumberpatch LOOKS. I mean, really, look at that dude. No upper lip. All that extra space between the eyes. He's fetal alcohol syndome in human form.
The only actor I can think of that gives me even more of the creeps (and the SuperWhoLock crowd is gonna love me for this....) is Matt Smith (the 11th Doctor). With his soup can of a head, and beady eyes wayyyyy too close together, and wide flat nose. Between having no eyebrows and his fucking bowtie (which IS NOT COOL) and his Fez, he is the worst looking actor to ever play the part. That includes Syvester McCoy who looks like he's trying to suck in his own chin.

and to think some flabby huffalump is schlicking off to fantasies of Cucumberpatch and Matt Soupcan Smith porking.
and that makes me sad. Because, if that is what their faces look like under normal circumstances, imagine how undignified their Orgasm Face must be.

I had to google this guy, but goddamn you're right. So soul less looking.

matt smith's chin is what bothers me personally but maybe i just have odd standards of attractiveness because I can see why people find both matt smith and cumberbatch attractive even if i don't personally care
