hearing brittany say “idk why anyone is writing call of duty fanfic” while she is currently obsessed and reading ones of ghost took me out
my exact thoughts omfg
What's more embarrassing than knowing everything they're talking about? Knowing everything they got wrong
You got me 😭
Lmaooo
Lol! Not embarrassing to me, though... Very proud to be an otaku nerd 🤣 . But yeah. I'm sure there are podcasts out there about fanfiction alone. It is a HUGE topic, and they barely scratched the surface.
“Do you know what a one-shot is?”
“Yeah like with a camera?”
WHEN I TELL YOU THAT I ALMOST STEERED OFF THE ROAD
yeah the part about one shots and imagines… those are two different things and i shouldn’t know that so well
YEAH and the self insert, isn’t that when an author makes an “oc” that’s obviously just them trying to “insert” themself into the cannon?
“Idk who’s writing fan fiction for the call of duty universe” that aged well 💀
imagine:
niall horan crawling inside your ear. you tell him to stop but he is in there
I WAS SEARCHING EVERY CREVICE OF THIS COMMENT SECTION FOR THIS COMMENT
✨✨🤠IMAGINE🤠✨✨
that imagine is unironically my favorite thing on the internet
my friends and i made a video recreating this
26:27
the way brittany is a literal expert on this really makes it that much better
Right Sarah brings up a topic and Brittany is like “let me elaborate on that” 😭😭😭
NOT THE HURT/COMFORT, COLE SPROUSE, VETERAN, PTSD, FANFICTION BRITTANY
Has anyone found it yet???
@@ms.bratyanski-artteacher2015 why can’t you just let it be 😭
Oh my god we haft to find it and read it tho
link please
@@kadinmay Because we want to read it 😭
i am literally fucking crying that sarah thought jan. 6 was the day one direction broke up and not the insurrection at the capitol
I read Draco/Hermione fanfic back in 2006. I was in 8th grade. I would wake up and read it like an old man who read the news paper with his morning coffee. I have a core memory of printing it out and reading it on the school bus.
I downloaded PDFs off ao3 in high school to read Draco/Ginny fanfic without wifi
god, the pre-devices printing in the 2000s. I'm positive I still have some drarry fic printed and stapled somewhere. a friend of mine got a long fic professionally bound like a book. what a time.
I used to print out my HP fanfiction and print it off and take it to school in a folder so I could read it in class without getting in trouble for being on my iPod
drop some recs
Oh god... I used to print out lemons from DeviantART to read when I went home, where I had no internet
y'all keep saying stuff like "do you think they write ___ fanfiction?" the answer is yes. there is legitimately fanfic for everything. i once saw a lightning mcqueen x ronald reagan fic. anything is possible. love you both xx
I once saw a fic for Jesus/H*tler on Ao3
There’s a fanfic out there about Biden/Trump 🙂
Link?
Macklemore/Kanye West in Madoka Magica
Trump/Shrek is a fan favorite and I personally as an atheist also really enioy Judas/Jesus fanfics.
When Britney said "Superwholock" I actually got war flashbacks
Me too🤚🏾😭
Same 😂
didn't we all
no the fact that it's been literally 10 years since it started.......
Same, I had a button that said superwholock that I got from a con……
The opening text "My name is Ebony Darkness Dementia Raven Way..." lives rent free in my brain. Also "it was raining AND snowing" iconic.
How about he put his thingy in my you know what and we did it for the first time........Then "What the Hell are you doing you motherfuckers" it was Dumbledore
@@victoriabryer4710 absolutely immaculate. My Immortal is a goldmine of young edgy comedy.
LMAO LIKE GIRL SAY “ it’s sleeting outside”
what is raining and snowing from ? lmao
"We deserve a soft epilogue, my love." Makes me sob.
I REMEMBER i read this twilight fanfiction whose author was a ✨woman in stem✨ and, this one time, she left an author's note that said, "after this chapter, i won't be uploading in a while because i'm finishing my dissertation."
wild times indeed
authors notes hold so much extra lore that no one ever fucking needed. i adore them
@@angryjester8622 AGREE
Omg I just saw a comment about a woman in stem who wrote a fanfic while in college 😭😭😭
NO BC A/NS ARE RIDICULOUS SOMETIMES
bro the authors notes are wild sometimes they'll be like "sorry i havent uploaded my whole family and dog were murdered, anyway the updates should be regular from here on out"
I was a STEM major and I wrote a moderately popular Venom fanfiction.
okay but link it 👀
Drop the title, I would like to read it
link please omg
Don’t be shy drop the link
Amanda feed them
Britney and sarah: *makes jokes about college students writing fanfiction*
Me, a college student who runs a fanfiction blog on her way to class: this feels a little personal
THEY'RE LAUGHING AT YOU😳
Ha jk..
Brittney is outing us lol hahahah
don't be shy drop the link🥺🥺🥺
EXACTLY! And the fact that they're monetized and benefiting off content they're punching down at.
Same bestie, I didn't START writing fanfic till I was in college.
On ao3 there is a special tag called "dead dove: do not eat". It's basically a very special tag to tell you that a fanfic will be the most messed up shit you've ever read. Not sure if it's a tag used anywhere else
Isn’t that an arrested development reference? Where jobe bought a dove from a pet store but it died so he wanted to keep it cold to return it
“…well idk what was expecting”
Love watching someone who’s never touched fanfiction and then there’s Brittany who was in the trenches during the tumblr golden age. Glad you made it out lmao
yh some of us are stuck
this left me feeling validated, but also, humiliated.
it’s like everything brittany was saying was totally me in middle school but i never talked ab it out loud so to say it is HUMILIATING
I think we can all agree some of the fanfiction on AO3 is really fucking good. Like you can find some legit literary masterpieces on there.
Yes! I've read fanfics on there better than some books I've read, there are some really talented people on there.
Ive read a 620k word masterpiece of anime fanfiction. one of the best goddamn things I’ve laid eyes on😭
i guarantee if i went back and reread the end of twist and shout i’d still cry
@@alexia7063 what is twist and shout
Anyone got recommendations? Like I’m serious rn I wanna get into this whole AO3 thing cause so many ppl around me read fanfics and I have no idea what that even really is 😂😅✌️
Hearing “Superwholock” in the nail polish aisle of Walmart was such an experience
Brittany is the voice of the fans. She consistently makes me feel represented, understood, and accepted by people who were not a part of that culture because time again she has shown the ability to explain it to them in a way that they can understand, rather than be fearful of. Brittany gives me hope that at some point I will be able to tell people about that time in my life without being mocked for still holding it near to my heart.
Live free Rowan. Live free
lmao was I okay when I wrote this? where did this melodrama come from? don't worry y'all I am not upset about being a misunderstood stan
speak your truth for all of us who can’t !
Legitimately the same though, this podcast makes me feel so much more comforted about being an online dork my entire life, haha
My percussion teacher had a dog named Zoey Deschenel, and he was a guitar player for a band. He would upload guitar tutorials or playthroughs, and anytime his dog would walk into frame, he'd title the video "ft. Zoey Deschenel"
OMG THAT IS GOLD🤣
HELP
HELEOEOOE
I SPIT OUT MY WATER WHEN BRITTANY SAID SHE WROTE COLE SPROUSE FANFICTION
When Sarah said “my mom made that for me” talking about being skinned alive I DIEEEEEED 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
when
I was literally cryongggg
@@nobodynocrime89 starts at like 22:15
22:45 for the specific lines
When Sarah asked if there are any ethical dilemmas with fan fiction I actually screamed
I fully expected them to talk about Anne Rice in that moment and the amount of disclaimers that authors put on stuff now
Riverdale writers must have read Brittany’s fic about Cole because they made Archie a veteran with ptsd lmao
In the comics or the show? I’ve missed a few seasons lmao

Fun fact Stephanie Meyers was inspired by MCR for twilight, then the author of 50 shades of grey was inspired by twilight fan fiction for that series as well.
and then 365 days wouldnt exist without 50 shades too
I always heard that 50 shades of gray was actually originally twilight fan fiction and she changed it when it got popular and published it with a bit of a different plot and names obviously 😂😂😂
Hahahah yessss just said the same thing
After was inspired by 50 Shades too
50 shades WAS twilight fanfic. It was like what if edward wasnt a vampire just a rich abusive guy
“His fingers glided over my epiglottis” would literally mean someone shoving their finger all the way to the back of your mouth under your tongue.
More like behind your tongue... basically choking you from the inside and making you gag simultaneously...gosh I sometimes regret having so much knowledge about human anatomy 😂😂😭😭😭😭
I NEED a series of Sarah and Brittany reading horrible fanfiction.
THE WAY IM HAVING ONE SIDED CONCERSATIONS WITH THEM DISCUSSING HOW FANFICTION WORKS THIS IS SO EMBARRASSINNNGGGGGGGG😭😭😭🔫
No cause same. I paused the video to add my own info on the topic. LIKE A GUEST EXPERT. THE EMBARSSMENT 💀💀
@@dearymirth7770 i did the same thing with the furry episode 😭
@@dearymirth7770 HELP
I'm slightly disappointed that the term "lemon" was not discussed. But this did make me feel validated. And I do feel like an elder in the community for using ao3. Only top shelf stories allowed
me too! the older I get, the more picky I become lol I used to read so much trash fic and enjoy it, but now if I see too many spelling mistakes I click out
@@camibvaz i see more than 5 long sentences in a paragraph and i click out 😂
The citrus scale!!! A cultural turning point tbh, it does so much good work lmaoo
@@anais3337 the citrus scale walked so ao3 tagging could run
I've had to wade through so much trash before AO3 became a popular site I deserve to only get the top shelf fanfics now. I've paid my dues don't make me suffer through shit like Wattpad.
27:12 when i was 5 years old we got a kitten and my parents let me name him so i named him Magic School Bus. i remember my parents would say the full name, Magic School Bus, every single time they called him because they thought it was so funny
gonna name my next cat this lol
Stop that’s so cute
The "I salute flirtily" has me in shambles.
Lmaooo like a military salute 😭😭😭😭
I randomly decided to read through the comments part way through the video and the exact same moment I read this comment they said it in the video
The way Sarah kept referring to hogwarts as a church lmaooo
hearing "superwholock" dealt 200 psychic damage to me
same 💀💀💀
Brittany not “understanding” COD fanfic is willddddddd lmao ghost has changed her haha
Fun fact: Fifty Shades of Grey was originally a fan fiction of twilight! It was called Master of the Universe
WHAT😭
I also heard Edward was inspired by Gerard Way, also that he started MCR to cope with 9/11. So if this is true then there is a direct timeline where 9/11 caused Fifty Shades of Gray
Throwback to when someone wrote a fan fiction about me and my TEACHER when I was *very much underage* & would UPDATE it daily, like if we had a test they would write about it the next day in their “chapter updates”, or like if we had a seating assignment change they would IN DETAIL say who was sitting around me, stuff like that. It got so bad I got pulled into the principal office, had my phone & wattpad/any writing app searched, the teacher got put on temporary leave, & a full investigation went on to figure out who wrote it. When they finally figured out who it was, I got an apology because everyone genuinely believed I was writing it, & the teacher had to transfer schools because his reputation was tarnished with parents (even though he had no correlation with anything & genuinely was a great teacher). The kid got charged with stalking & some other things for writing about underage relationships. We were literally in 6th grade.
Girl what the actual hell, I’m so sorry you went through that
Wow Jesus Christ
No because a similar thing had happened to me, I had a crush on a teacher and I wasn't out yet but I confided in a friend and finally came out and she made a whole Wattpad story about me and this teacher and would update it all the time and it was so embarrassing.
Yeah. This makes the stance that ffn on real people is ethically and morally wrong.
Girl, I hope you're okay. I have no words.
AU can also be like... coffee shop AU. So these characters now don't have their canon background, they just meet at a coffee shop. Or flower shop. Or a soulmate AU, in a universe where soulmates exist, etc. So doesn't have to be another piece of media!
i used to love the soulmate au’s where the world was black and white until they met their soulmate or soulmate tattoos
coffee shop aus are my favorite LMAO
we love a good coffee shop au!
Me: *having Vietnam flashbacks of my friend telling me about how she had just read a Sherlock fanfic where Sherlock wanted John to eat a portion of his flesh and fat that he’d removed from his stomach to make them closer as lovers when I was in middle school*
In college I sat next to a girl in Stats that would actively write twilight fanfic during class. Me and the girl who sat next to me found it and it was actually pretty good. And that’s how I made a friend in college
ALSO I commented too soon and just learned a LOT about my last name lmfao
What’s so crazy to me is that people are out there writing entire NOVELS of fanfiction that are so good, one that my friend read even has it’s own FANDOM it’s so popular
It’s so insane that people do this for fun, like, nobody can say that people won’t do work if it’s not for money
are you talking abt all the young dudes? and yeah, fanfic writers are absolutely wild, they're writing full length series while also getting a college degree, and posting it all for free.
I'm just thankful to the fact that A/B/O was not mentioned because then I really would have cried
THIS!!!! And also how insane the story behind how it became a widespread popular AU is; basically it started in large part bc of Wincest Supernatural shippers🥴
I was waiting for it hahaha
FR
I was doing house work when the words “Larry Stylinson” where spoken I dropped everything and started sweating… a words I haven’t heard in years.
“Do you know what a oneshot is?”
“Like with a camera?”
*DEAR GOD SHES A BABY! KEEP HER INNOCENT!*
AO3 is literally so intense. My favorite fanfic is quite literally a full-ass book series rewritten from a different character's perspective
bestie drop a link!!!
what series? don’t be shy, drop the link
i wrote a mildly popular haikyuu fanfic when i was like 15, every once in a while i get an email notification of someone commenting or adding it to a collection. it’s how i stay humble.
i wrote moderately popular ‘the office’ one-shots back in the day and the notifications give me whiplash lmaodh
back in 2019 i wrote a handful of not very good detroit become human fics and the first one i wrote was not super popular but it got a lot of eyes on it and every time i check my email i see that im still getting kudos for it and its pure whiplash
LMFAOOO NOT THE HAIKYUU FANFICS DONT REMIND ME OF THAT
LITERALLY SAME! i wrote a few for oikawa and ppl still comment 😭
DONT REMIND ME OF THE HAIKYUU FANFICTIONS
AND I MIGHT HAVE READ THAT WHEN I WAS 11 OOPS
“What did Pitbul do?? 🥺 He’s worldwide!!!”

25:44, you wake up from your weight loss surgery, Liam is buckled over in pain, he communicates with his loving eyes “who do you think gave you the tapeworm? ❤️”
I often think about how Liam Payne's girlfriend took him to the movie theater to see After and like halfway through he realized it was about one direction
NO WAY LMAOSH
Huhhhhh
Is this fucking play about US?
The fact that I truly can say “oh yeah, I was apart of that Tumblr era” completely fully 1000% makes me want to vom. I’ll never trade those years for strictly Homestuck though that’s for sure
I kin this comment
In that tumblr era I ate, slept, breathed, and shat homestuck, I was SO obsessed and honestly I was thriving
@@aangranaa5352 a cop and i read a homestuck update under a shock blanket
@@mo-ov8hz I bet he was crying and cursing at hussie under his breath in your drive way too
tumblr is still alive. I`m still living my tumblr era. I`ve been living it since 2012
i find it interesting how most people associate fanfics with self-inserts because i solely read ff for characters that didn’t have enough interactions to finally get their time to shine (mostly in anime and manga). i actually really disliked all of the self-insert and y/n stuff because it broke the 4th wall too much
I had a dental appointment today and watched this beforehand and the entire time I was there all I could think about was Brittany saying "Trisha Paytas core" and laughing and I genuinely almost had a laughing attack in the dentists office.
one of my core memories is from the 8th grade, where my English teacher would allow us to read e-books on our phones during "silent reading time" and EVERY girl in the class would read one direction fanfiction on wattpad, no joke
Luckyyy
that is so hilarious i love it
I once worked as a museum guard (aka sat in a room and made sure no one touched the artwork) and because it was often empty, I ended up reading every fic in the Les Mis tag on Ao3 😌 Didn't learn as much about art as I'd expected during that job but I did learn a lot about gay sex
Which IS art let's be real.
Plot twist you and the fan fiction were the art all along. 🤩
I love how Brittany was so convinced COD fanfics couldn't be real and now she's out here writing them 🤣
The star trek fanfics actually started in the 1960/70's by housewives writing Spock/Kirk and they published them in the 'fanzine' Spocknalia
Triggered by the mention of SuperWhoLockians.
“potterheads, grab your wands
whovians, hop in your TARDISes
supernatural fans, get the shotguns
sherlockians, hire your consulting criminals
avengers fans, assemble”
I just broke out into hives
your giving me tumblr flashbacks
you’re just going to write this without any trigger warnings?
It’s giving me war flashbacks.
going through the 5 stages of grief currently
“Why are you 37 writing fanfics about ponies” literally please do an episode on them it’s so fascinating and scary
as someone who AVIDLY reads HP fanfics I would've had so much fun trying to explain the different AUs to Sarah and Brittany
No bc dark hp fics go so hard 🙁
The chemistry between these two is incredible. I feel like I’m in the room. You guys are phenomenal.
“Isn’t the church in Harry Potter gothic” - that was the moment I knew Sarah was a legend.
I didn't even know there was a church in Harry potter

No actually I’m doing exactly this rn
The way I'd pay real US currency to watch ya'll react to/read the rest of My Immortal your commentary is everything
Is it bad that whenever they said “it’s 22 chapters” I was like “oh that’s not that bad” and they were like “it’s so long”
THEY’RE LITERALLY THE HIGHLIGHT OF MY MONDAYS. 😭😂❤️
it's the only way i know the week has begun
Cause same
ok
I wrote a Christopher Columbus fanfic for history as his “wife” waiting for him to come home 🥴
I'd read it 📖
not christopher columbus 😭
@@thatss0laura I was like 12 😂
girl no not the colonizer 😭
As long as no native Americans were hurt in the writing of this fic…😅😬
The fact that Tom Felton made the brave and ill-advised decision to read a Draco fanfic over insta live last year… and the fans recommended My Immortal, SENT ME. I just thought he got sent a random bad fic. Only realizing now that it’s infamous in the community. Dead. Pray for Tom. He read the entire first chapter. His soul is too gentle.
"I don't know who is writing a love story involving the Call of Duty universe" Well this aged like fine wine 😂
"y/n brushed her curly blonde hair, her blue eyes were so blue" me reading that with brown hair and brown eyes lmaao. I never understood those ones, the point was to be generic and as general as possible.
Fr like it’s not a reader insert if the reader’s characteristics are already defined, I hate those fanfics
But all the fanfics always have brown hair, I don't remember the last time I've ever read that the "y/n" had blonde hair.
wrong it would've called the eyes "orbs"
@@adivorcee2357 LMAO STOP I WAS CONTEMPLATING WRITING ORBS INSTEAD
@@aspannas honestly I haven't read fanfic since I was maybe 15/16 and I'm 22 now, so idk if it's been different recently. I just remember the beach wave blonde hair moment in time.
ao3 taught me so much about creative writing fr. there's joke fics on there too, ofc, but also some truly stunning writing. Ive written maybe 80k words myself, across a few fandoms (not my proudest moment).
THE WAY THIS EPISODE MADE ME SCREAM LAUGHING...I love how little Sarah knew about the terms lol!!! I forget that there's people who didn't grow up reading this stuff all the time
brittany being an enemies to lovers and mandalorian girlie is so iconic
One of the best things to happen in internet culture over the past 5-10 years is people being VERY open about reading fanfiction. It used to be this big secret I kept from everyone I know when I was in middle school. Now I get my favorite Star Wars fanfiction printed as a soft cover book and I read it on the bus. Thank you internet.
where can you get that done?
Peter Capaldi actually rejected a romance storyline with his companion in the show because she was too young and he was a father. Felt it would have been 'completely creepy'. And he defended a lesbian kiss on the show, saying there should be more kissing just not between the Doctor and his companion. Basically he's great
He became one of my favorite doctors of all time. He’s a truly brilliant actor and also a great person. Brought so much to Dr. Who during his tenure.
brittany questionng the allure of call of duty fanfiction is paintfully poetic considering whats to come
The part when Sarah is actioning mosh pit “what’s wrong?” It’s straight serotonin for me
12:25 is one of your funniest podcast parts yet, sobbing at o'pussyslayer420
13:33 Crying at "mc D O O G L E"
Not every fanfic is sexual, y’all. 🤣 There are some that are even more well-written than some canon works.
It might as well be loo
this!! 😭😭😭 my favs are the ones where y/n is just like chilling out with the love interest going to the store or something like --
there was a harry potter/mauraders fanfic i read once that was so much better than the actual series it was insane. the writing was beautiful and the author understood the characters and wrote them so well. i dont even care about harry potter anymore but ive read that fic three times. its wild how good someones writing can be when they're not a terf
@@garfieldbrooks YES I have to ask, was it on Wattpad? I remember reading these fics that were literally whole books and they were SO GOOD

i have two degrees and my pride and joy of my LIFE is my 300k+ word Bleach AU fanfic that i’ve written in four months with a friend. it’s not done yet but it’s gonna be legit. it’s actually good writing too. we’re treating it like our own story but with premade characters. fan fics are awesome
not even a minute in and Brittany is already talking about Dr.Phil sex dreams
Brittany represents my Internet life so well… I know she’s seen some dark things then 💀
The fact that I'm actively reading some fanfiction right now and this is the topic of the week is astronomical right now
theres no such thing as a coincidence

Re: Dan and Phil - Dan basically insinuated in one of his videos that he and Phil had had some kind of romantic involvement and that the fan fiction and fetishization made it really difficult to be out about it
omg seriously ??? that has to be so horrible, so many STRAIGHT teens in fandoms fetishize gay relationships
literally, and also the hamster fancfiction that was trending was actually foul
@@rebeccahodges3106 NOT THE HAT FIC literally traumatizing
To add, I remember there was also something about the supernatural Destiel Fandom thinking the actual actors legit had a thing for each other that they sent death treats to their wives
literally i felt so bad for dan when i watched his video- even if they *were* in a relationship at some point, the shipping got so out of hand and inappropriate :(
Sarah and Brittany must be mind readers because i was literally planning on reading some fanfics before refreshing my notifs and seeing this pop up. Truly icon.
Honestly!!!
i was literally in the middle of reading some fanfiction
I remember being deep into the Hunger Games fan fiction where people would make up their own games because there was so much world to expand on and I thought it was so cool. Like what happened the 39th hunger games? They'd make up all the tributes and the arena and everything. I also remember a lot of Haymitch and Effie ships.
The Victor's Project is hands down the best hunger games ff and it expands on the games
I've never felt so seen as I do rn watching this episode
I've been reading fanfiction since I was like 13 and I'm 21 now. I've seen all type of questionable fanfics but like even since then I was always uncomfortable reading fanfics about real people bc I feel there's like consent missing. It's so bad when you see some people write sexual fanfics about minors (both real and fictional) without aging them up or even stories of sexual assault that aren't done with respect. There's no rules when it comes to fanfics so yeah it definitely has its dark sides.
The “oh yeah” Brittany exudes to the question of “are there any ethical dilemmas regarding fanfiction?” That’s my spirit animal.😅🤣💯
the feminine urge to ask for your skin back
Petition for them to start another podcast where they just read fanfiction. I had this on while I was cleaning my closet and got really into the story and forgot this wasn’t a story time podcast.
I love how Brittany is an expert in not only art history, but fanfiction as well
