I recently shared a sweet post from the mother of a fan who got to meet me through make-a-wish foundation.
Make-a-wish is a wonderful charity and I’ve done a few of these before, but I never share them because I don’t want people to think I just do it for attention.
I thought I’d share the post on my Facebook; because it was very sweet and since I didn’t write the post or took any of the pictures - I thought it would be ok.
I’m just really fucking disappointed to see some of my fans commenting on the post; making fun of the clearly disabled fan - Drawing resemblances to a horse, etc.
It frustrates the hell out of me because it’s not my post so I cant delete these stupid, horrible, idiotic comments.
Just want to say, I don’t approve of this for a second. I’ve blocked these people INCLUDING EVERYONE who liked their posts.
I don’t want anything to do with fans like these!
Daisy is such an amazing girl who taught me awesome things like Bro Shambo and I’m SO proud to have as a fan! I would honestly pick 1 Daisy bro, over 43 million like the ones in the post.
Please do send the family and awesome bro Daisy some love and support! AND DONT REPLY OR COMMENT ABOUT BAD PEOPLE.
[►] Here ya go, Anon! :D Sorry that I had such a hard time with locating this video. I’m not very good with the Smosh Games videos… I hope these were worth my incompetence! xD
Also, thank you guys for helping me find the video! :D
Ianthony moment droughts are not uncommon. They happen often and usually last about a month or two depending on how big the last Ianthony moment was. For example, after THEY KISSED we had an Ianthony moment drought for almost two months. Sure, we had some tiny, cute moments here and there but we didn’t get anything BIG until Smosh Summer Games: Season Two came around. So, this drought we’re going through happens VERY often. Whether or not it is intentional is a question for another day, but there is no denying that it does happen. This isn’t the first time and it will not be the last.
The drought itself is pretty hard to tough out especially if you’re a blog that mostly centers around Ianthony, but what makes the drought even worse is when people start to deny. When you go so long without a “huge” Ianthony moment, then there will be some people that start to loose hope and will have doubts.
Just to name a few. Having doubts about Ianthony isn’t uncommon. It’s totally normal and it even happens to some of the most dedicated shippers like myself and @llamafabbiness . Doubt is not uncommon and it’s okay to feel it, but take a look back at all of the wonderful gay stuff they’ve done this year. This is by far the GAYEST year on record for them and we’ve actually had a couple of pretty decent moments over the past few weeks like:
Ian and Anthony reenacting a VERY popular and romantic scene from the 80′s romance movie “Ghost” (WATCH IT! IT’S GREAT)
These moments are pretty substantial. Sure they’re not as big as the kisses, but they’re not as small as heart eyes either. Laying in bed and reenacting a popular romantic movie scene is pretty damn big in my opinion. There’s also the argument that they’re just doing all of these moments for the views. If you think that, then that’s fine. You’re entitled to your own opinion, but I personally think that the “views” argument is bullshit.
Ianthony shippers are a VERY small minority in the Smosh fandom and the likelihood of them exploiting the shippers for more views is VERY low because the fandom is EXTREMELY small. It would be really stupid business move. You know what is a smart business move, however? Appealing to the larger audience and what they want and that’s exactly what they do. For example: who’s been the main stars in their recent videos as of October? Ian and Anthony have. The Smosh Squad is hardly ever in the Friday videos anymore because the majority of Smosh fans wanted videos with just Ian and Anthony in them. Also, the drought began as soon as they started appearing in their videos more. So, right there’s the proof. If they were trying to appeal to us shippers, then the moments wouldn’t have dropped, they would’ve increased SUBSTACIALLY in which case they did not. Again, you’re entitled to your own opinion, but by claiming that argument you’re claiming that Ian and Anthony have no idea what they’re doing with their business and that is FAR from the truth.
Anyways, I know that things look bleak right now, but they won’t be for long. Ianthony droughts are hard to tough through especially if you’re on the edge of leaving the fandom, but keep your heads up, guys! I know it’s hard and seeing such a small amount of moments can be discouraging, but always remember that stuff like this:
happened this year. In fact, some of these moments have happened within the last two months! So keep your chin up! The drought will be over soon and then we can all go back to fangirling our hearts out! :D
