* Go to any Fourm about ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender]]'' fanfiction and mention you like [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5398503/1/Embers "Embers"] by Vathara. Or you don't like it, for that matter. Either one will give birth to Flames that can be seen from the dark side of Pluto.
* Mention the fanfic ''[[All He Ever Wanted]]'' to the [[Axis Powers Hetalia]] fen. The fandom will be split among fans who tout it as [[Better Than Canon]] and anti-fans who hate it to death. And it looks like this has been going even
** "If you don't like it? Either you don't appreciate 'True Art' (which is [[True Art Is Angsty|always angsty and contrived and what not]]), you're a butthurt Prussia or England/Japan fangirl who cannot stand their less-than-stellar portrayals, or [[You're Just Jealous]] of Mith and/or Puel's "online stardom" so you want to 'slander' them."
** "If you like it? You're a [[Professional Butt
* About the only other Hetalia fanfic that's even more controversial than this one is a certain infamous fill over at the Hetalia [[Kink Meme]] - if you're familiar with the kink meme at all, you'll instantly know which one we mean. Said fanfic is so immensely popular that it has spawned numerous spinoffs and related requests, but its...shall we say...[[Rape Tropes|controversial]] [[Revenge Fic|subject]] has caused ''many'' anti-fans to call it [[Canon Rape]] that should never, ever have been made, even as the fic's fans attack them for getting so uppity about a work that was created just for [[Fetish Fuel]] purposes.
* Mentioning Phyrriccomedy's ''The Chosen End'' is like throwing fish in a barrel. You have discussions about characterization of the leads ([[Draco in Leather Pants]] Russia and [[Uke]] America) about the [[Die for Our Ship|bashing of England]] supposedly "based" on "historical canon" (only applied to ''him'' and not to Russia or USA), the wanky and holier-than-thou behavior of the author (shown in the [[Hate Fic]] in which she makes England a crazy [[Yandere]] who ''rapes and tortures America''), the fangirls who can't [http://hetalia-wank.livejournal.com/35550.html?thread=4084958#t4084958
* There's also one Hetalia fanwriter who used to be a well-respected and highly praised [[Big Name Fan]] until a combination of real-life depression and criticism from people who viewed her France as OOC caused her to have an epic [[Creator Breakdown]] and stir up a torrent of wank on the Hetalia kink meme discussion post that was so bad that the kink meme mods severely limited the topics allowed on the discussion post and a general discussion post had to be started on another journal. The wank died down over time, only to be resurrected when the fan returned to the kink meme, despite her earlier declaration that she was quitting it for good, and wrote a fill that left many readers disturbed at her treatment of France and commenting on how it seemed like she was vicariously torturing him and how she still seemed to be sensitive to criticism in spite of her insistence that she genuinely wanted to improve her characterization of France. Nowadays, the very mention of her name or portrayal of France is a one-way ticket to a whirlwind of wankery and complaints from anons who are sick about this topic being brought up again.
* Ask for opinions on sub quality between ''Miss Dream'' or ''Sailor Moon Fansubs'' for Sailor Moon videos, prepare to run from the explosion of flames. Drama such as this has ''also'' caused vandalism in
* Likewise, following either Ian Andreas Miller or Hitsuji Kinno's spellings for different character terms or names may wind up getting you torn down by the anti-fans of the one whose spellings you support. That's not even getting into the debates over which one of them is the [[Small Name, Big Ego|more pompous]]. If you thought even the most simple spellings weren't serious business, you might wind up having to think again with certain forums.
* [http://scorpio-15.livejournal.com/6049.html "The Tie"]: Hottest/most emotional/greatest ''[[American Idol]]'' fanfic ever, or purple/out-of-character/melodramatic [[In Name Only]] claptrap that should've ended x number of chapters ago? Ooooooh, pretty bonfire!

** And please, don't even bring up the author's... turbulent personal life. It's for your own good. Really.
* Go to any ''[[My Little Pony
* Mention the "[[Big Name Fan|Draco Trilogy]]" on any ''[[Harry Potter]]'' fan site. Then stand well back.
** Oh, the ''HP'' fandom. You can cause a flamewar about [[Shipping]], saying that [[Word of God]] isn't Canon, the Epilogue...
