It's almost funny how they miss the entire message of the show they're so in love with.

Also, agreed that none of them have ever even seen these shows (bootlegs DON'T count). A lot have never even been to New York.

Young enthusiasts are what we need, but "stans" are extremely, EXTREMELY toxic."

 

Completely agree. This year they're mostly Mean Girls fans (basically the Heathers stans with a new fav) but they're all awful. It's a shame because many shows they defend are great, and the shows they attack are brilliant. It's garbage how toxic it all is.

Out of respect for this fan's privacy, I'm not going to go into detail about this particular incident. But what I will say is that the actress in question here has been more than once called out on social media, and demonized multiple times, because she has the unmitigated nerve to not hug every fan, and listen intently to every unnecessary detail fans share with her about their personal lives. This actress has been treated very unfairly on social media for just being how she is (which, while maybe not as animated, is very nice), and this kind of behavior is just one out of many reasons why teen stans get on my nerves so much.

Whoops, my apologies! My response was directed to Impossible2, not you. It looks like you sent your response while I was typing mine out. My bad!
