Using 25 May icon for the last time in solidarity.
Most of the wank seems to be from people taking either themselves or the 25 May celebrations too seriously. To me, the 25 May thing was an opportunity for me to show my love for Discworld - something I don't get to do very often as I'm not particularly in the DW fandom. And that is really all it was. I had a lovely time, and it was gorgeous to see other people I hadn't known were Pratchett fans come coming out of the woodwork. It was just something nice to bond over briefly, you know?
As you say, it's fandom, and that's why most of us are here.
