>>Because its still a fanwork.

Aren't parodies also?

>>And some gory stuff achieve their goal of freaking you out, >>I'll give them that.

Didn't get this sentence.

@osias: The word you want is just 'gorn', or maybe 'gornish' if it's not really bad. And they're called 'fanfics' still because, even though the authors aren't any kind of fan I want to meet or admit to being in the same fandom as, the term 'fanfic' doesn't really mean 'fiction written by a fan' anymore. It's its own genre now, sort of.

Can you think inside the chimney?

Too bad we can't see the other side to tell if the eyes are right.

@red: but still... gorn fanfics try to deconstruct the original work just like "funny" parodies. I think "fanfic" should refer to fanworks that [try to] Play Straigth.

Or do people now call "funny" parodies "fanfic" also?

Hey, look! Something we haven't talked about in a while!

I'm saying that the gory stuff still has merit as it sometimes achieves its goal of freaking you out/disgusting you/making you feel sorry for the victim/laughing at how ridiculas it is.

OK, I don't think it is possible to go more meta than the My little Humans confections site, at least without breaking down various dimensional walls.

The internet is the realm of chaos, but not all chaos is evil.

@ Crowlover: That was hideously misspelt.

@Red: so, you're saying (and I agree) that the gorn ones are effective in "destroy" what the original work is about. Isn't that a parody? (I'll check wikipedia on that now)

#118737 crowlover Thu, 8th Mar '12 11:54:31 AM

C'mon Daring Doo, I see you, pretending you've got a sliver!

I never saw what the big deal was...

I like Daring Doo until they introduced Dappy Doo. He sucked.

And don't get me started on Daring Dumb.

My favourite character from Daring Doo was always Twilight Dinkley.

Yeah, she was my favorite too.

Any thoughts on Rarity Blake?

And I don't think there's an "b" in her name.

@crow Rarity Blake was just eye candy if you ask me. But I liked how Daring Doo on Diamond Dog Island actually turned her into a kickflank Action Mare. But my least favourite was Applefred Jones. Give him some personality writers!

What was that WMG that Cadence is actually the merger of the Cutie Mark Crusaders?!

That would be hilariously weird but also possibly very disturbing for Applejack and Rarity to not only have their sisters fused with Scootaloo into one pony, but that one pony is marrying Twilight's brother!

Hell, I love em all! Applefred Jones, Rarity Blake, Twilight Dinkley, Shaggyshy Rogers (sorry, but I like this name more

) and Daring Doo herself of course.

My favourite Daring Doo adventure was Daring Doo and the Human Invaders. Some scary stuff there.
