Gremlin

Their hobby is misleading and shaming people. They start stalking and digging through your trash to look for anything embarrassing you might have thrown away. Sometimes they even try to directly provoke you, because they think it’s funny if they get a reaction out of you.

You might try to speak with them and explain that they have the wrong idea about you. You might try to explain that you’ve changed over the years or explain that your old messages only look bad because they don’t have the necessary context. However, when you try to do this, they’ll just laugh at you.

You see, they don’t care at all about getting to know the real you. They want to maintain their twisted perception of you because they’re having so much fun ridiculing and sharing this image of you that exists in their minds. You might try to prove that they’re wrong about you by remaining on your best behavior for as long as possible… but it won’t help.
Over time, you're going to develop a lot of resentment towards the gremlins. Your old personality will melt away and be replaced with an angry and bitter attitude.

Fandom Gremlin

Someone who is childishly, gender-neutrally nerdy\geeky and lives for fandom as if it was their job and\or lifestyle.

Synonymous with "Fandomer".
Normie 1: Layla has a lot of drawings and stories about that "Galen Frontier Sparkle Z" anime. She's even cosplayed the characters once or twice. I just can't get how she can do that if she has never saw it or read the manga.

Normie 2: First, call her Kyochibi instead. Kyochibi is a fandom gremlin, so she usually gets into fandoms through the Internet, and sometime later may end up watching or reading some of their source material.

Normie 1: So, she's not a fan of the thing, she's a fan of the FANDOM? Well, I guess, it makes sense. She's been referring as her fics and art, as metafanon instead of fanon

Pocket gremlins

Despicable little creatures that inhabit your pockets, responsible for screwing up your phone by magically deleting contacts, disconnecting you at inopportune times, and writing naughty words with voice to text you would never dream of sending.
After waiting 45 minutes on hold, my doctors office finally picked up and those pocket gremlins cut us off.
