I've come to the conclusion that everyone is a wierdo. If you can't see it, it's just because you don't know them well enough. ;)
As for meaness - eh. I was thinking yesterday about melodrama - which, to be really honest, I think a lot of fanfic is - and about how pulling pushing emotions can be really satisfying. I like stories and movies and TV that really explores the emotional resolution of things; doesn't just say, "Oh. I see now. Okay." and then moves on.
I like the same things in fanfic. I like to read the hurty things and see them explored (ideally in as emotionally dramatic way as possible) before resolution. I get bored with the easy happy ending.
And, yes. My favorite ride is the rollercoaster. ;D
