When your friend (or friend group) is very passionate about a series that you have not read or watched yet, and talk so excitedly about it you recognize and become excited by things related to that series
I’ve never watched that anime but thanks to my pal Mark I know everything about the main character, I think I have secondhand fandom syndrome

Coinciding with Fandom Cannibalism
A Fandom Cannibal: is a person, usually an anti, who has run out of *appropriate victims to harass and target and moves on to other antis to harass. These individuals are usually attention seekers and will cause drama for the clout. Fandom Cannibalism almost always starts from a Fandom Cannibal.
(*The victims are usually people who don't fall under the Fandom Cannibals ludicrous moral compass)

"Weren't those two friends last week? Why are they attacking each other now?"
"Oh, they're both Fandom Cannibals. They'll go after anyone over a perceived wrong."

A stupid fucking retarded response to basic dissent, because what is being criticized is prevalent in fandoms.
*The comment is attached to unironic, non-satirical, way too decent comic art of Optimus Prime passionately cuddling Allied Master computer.
Person: Can you NOT FUCKING SHIP Allied Mastercomputer and Optimus Prime TOGTHER, Them literally just condoning each other's existence IS THE BIGGEST FUCKING MISCHARACTERIZATION TO EVEN REMOTELY EXIST, YOU STUPID FUCKING BITCH.
Chronically online kid: Baby's first fandom 💔, (Yap nonsense about how every community has shipping and its an ancient thing idgaf.)

A fan base solely revolving around the 2009 webcomic, Homestuck. Filled with nerds, cosplayers, krappy memers, trolls, cringey ocs, vriska simps (although there are little to none vriska simps) vriska haters, undertale fans that only found it from megalovania, normal people who just wanna enjoy the comic, and of course, the nepeta fan club. And the only fandom you can say pumpkin party in sea hitlers water apocalypse in and not be given the look (srsly that song is such a bop tho) These are given the name “the homestucks”

Example 6:
Hey where did you find homestuck?

*Immediately gets their butt kicked out the fandom by angry homestuck fans*
Example 7:
Someone watching s make her pay: YES DIE VRISKA DIEEE

The name antis/haters give to bts armys since they're too scared to use our real fandom name! It's like Voldemort up in this bish! They who must not be named! It's so ridiculous atp.

On October 31 2019, member Wonho left the South Korean boy group called Monsta X due to false accusation in efforts to protect the group from negative attention. Monbebe (fans of Monsta X) showed up to the Starship Entertainment building singing, crying, and writing messages of love and encouragement to Wonho on Post-it notes and stuck it to the building. This sparked Monbebe to trend hashtags on Twitter for months hoping to show support and get attention from the company to do better. “Post-it note fandom” was used as an insult from other fandoms to tease the efforts of Monbebe trying to get Wonho back... because frankly, a thing like that has never been done before. Once an idol is accused and leaves their company, much is not heard from them after that. Against all odds Wonho made his solo debut on September 4th, 2020 with his EP Love Synonym! Monbebe & Wenee (Wonho fans) couldn’t be happier.
Anti: Stupid Post-it note fandom, writing your notes won’t bring him back.. trending your hashtags won’t bring him back.. give up!!
Monbebe: he’ll come home just wait and see..
Months upon months later...
Wonho: *solo debuts*
Monbebe: Yeah the Post-it note fandom did that...
Monbebe: he’ll come home just wait and see..
Months upon months later...

Monbebe: Yeah the Post-it note fandom did that...
