User blog:AndrewBrauer/Update

Hey dudes it's Drew here, I'm making a blog right now due to something that happened very recently that makes me feel insulted with this fandom. Some users have been targeting me and Yoshi for the past week making fun of us for being fans of Luna, especially because I complained about a scene from Garage Banned. Now even though I still hate that scene from the episode for being out of character for both Luna and Luan along with being poorly written, I've gone past it and have moved on pretty quickly from the episode, however my opinion on the scene has caused members of the fandom to use that complaint to make fun of not only me but all fans of Luna. These users point out how Luna's fanbase is the worst out of all the characters on the show, saying that fans of Luna are idiots who get mad whenever Luna does anything kinda mean or is OOC. Okay look, the reason why I don't like it whenever a character (and not just Luna) acts OOC or becomes a huge jerk for little to no reason, is because it feels forced for the sake of comedy or for the plot when it isn't needed. Luna isn't the only one who's fallen victim to this, here's a list of moments I can come up with.
 * Lucy having a food fight. (No Guts, No Glori)
 * Luna taking the cereal out of Lincoln's hands. (Cereal Offender)
 * All of the sisters making fun of Lincoln. (Sleuth or Consequences)
 * Leni rejecting Lincoln's shower plan. (The Green House)
 * All of the sisters acting all motherly when Lincoln gets a little cut. (One of the Boys)
 * The sisters (except Lori, Leni, and Lola) being super girly with Lucy. (Back in Black)

However, a character acting out of character can work in some episodes if it makes sense with the plot, for example.
 * Luna being a jerk to her siblings. (House Music)
 * Lori being nice and grateful to Lincoln. (The Waiting Game)
 * Lola being thankful and sweet to Lincoln. (Out of the Picture)
 * Lincoln being a jerk to his sisters. (Out on a Limo)

Even still, I'm not someone who uses an issue like the one I had from Garage Banned and make it a running problem for days or even weeks. But just by mentioning my issue, it adds fuel to the fire for those hoping to ignite drama for no reason at all other than to get attention, and it seems to actually be working. Now most of the fandom describes all fans of Luna as crybabies who whine over her being mean forever and take the show WAY too serious, when they really should just not think too hard and just laugh at every single moment that happens in the show or else you're not a fan at all! So now for me to fully enjoy this show, I need to just say for every episode "Best episode ever!!!!!!!!!!!!! 10/10" and only talk about one thing from an episode and nothing else at all, otherwise I'm taking the show TOO seriously and then I'm not a fan of The Loud House. Ever since No Such Luck and all the negative backlash that episode has gotten for the past couple months, now no one wants to hear someone give a full-on honest opinion about an episode because most likely it won't be all positive. And if it's not all positive and you mention something you didn't like about a character in the episode, now your an idiot and someone who has no life at all spending all your time complaining about the scene for a long time and nothing else at all!!

What the fandom doesn't seem to understand is that not all opinions will be positive, and some fans will want to get in discussions and talk about how they really feel about an episode. But now, it seems like this fandom can't accept someone giving a negative opinion about an episode since now it'll just make that person look like a hater who can't enjoy Loud House at all. For me, whenever I talk about episodes in the series whether it's positive or negative, I always go into great detail about everything I like and everything I dislike about the episode, because I enjoy expressing how I feel and don't leave out anything that's worth pointing out.

So that's what I'm going to continue to do, even if something I point out that I don't like will trigger those to call me our for being a hater. At this point, I don't care you don't have to like my opinion but I don't have to like every episode in the series.

To end things out on a positive note, I want to thank my friends who have defended me whenever I got attacked just for expressing my opinion. Yoshi, TMNT, Muppet, Vossie and WJ you guys are awesome and I'm thankful to talk about The Loud House with you.
