The 14th Precinct - Oh, CSI:NY, You're So Cute in Your Wanking Britches, Trying So Hard to Be a Big Boy

(so the stalker chick must've been rumored a few weeks before i got wind of it, guess i'm just not hip-to-the-trip, lol) really, i just don't keep up with the whole fandom scene cos i'm not a member of it... ~without further ado~

CSI:NY fen is in a lather over its recent appearances on fandom_secret. Apparently, the DL crazy has reached toxic levels, and an unnamed fen denizen has been accused/outed as stalking Carmine Giovinozzo, going so far as to lurk outside his home for several hours.

Setting aside the seriousness of that type of crazy, I do wonder what the stalkette would have said if he had come out?

"I come in peace."

"Got a pool table, and if you do, can I consecrate it with my own stain? I'm not contagious, I swear."

"You're shorter than I thought." (that is just mean!)

And why do the NY fangirls obsess so rabidly over Carmine? He might be a talented actor, but he's always struck me as a trifle pompous and certainly infinitely less approachable than his male co-stars, Eddie and Hill, who are, IMHO, vastly more articulate and gracious than him. To be blunt, reading Carmine's interviews is akin to watching a chimpanzee masturbate at the zoo.

Have some DLers so conflated the actor with the role that they can't separate the real Carmine from the fictional Danny Messer? Are they enthralled by the idea of the bad-boy, emotionally unavailable fixer-uppers? Or do they just have a latent furry fetish that manifests itself in an inexplicable lust for bipedal weasels who look like bathing is optional on most days?

Maybe Carmine uses Axe body spray. How dirty boys get clean. Sort of. (this is just mean, too!)

On a more serious note, I feel for Carmine and hope that this incident, if true, is isolated... Previous line redacted in the ridiculous, overblown need for fandom security, and God, I hate doing this because it's such chickenshittery, and for fuck's sake, it's fandom, a lazy fucking fandom, at that, not the NSA, and if I'm supposed to be the MIB, I want my fucking Raybans... In any case, I sincerely hope he's checked his attic and crawlspace for any furtively lurking cable installers with psychotic identity crises.

I am amused by the gravitas exhibited by most CSI:NY fen when they're confronted with this wanklet. They refer to it in hushed, somber tones, as though it were a Category 5 perfect storm. I can only laugh, because as a veteran of the Wanketnam known as Potterfen, I know it's just a burp that wouldn't satisfy the gaping maw of Fandom Wank for more than three minutes. Not after Laptopgate, Lexicongate, and the disgusting 4Christina.org firestorm that consumed Fandom Wank for days. A rabid CSI:NY fenner with a stalking jones for Carmine is mere garnish on a flaming wank flambe.


uh...did she just call Carmine a bum??? gotta love girls that don't get us "rabid fangirls", huh? it must be a sad lonely existence not being a fan of Carmine Giovinazzo. ya gotta be a fan of Carmine to understand us! ;p

i disagree with her line about how he seems pompous & less approachable than Eddie & Hill & her opinion about how Carmine is less articulate & gracious than they are....ookkaayy...sure, he has his philosophies about life (who doesn't) & does seem a bit more liberal than the others...but'cha gotta remember, he's also a very creative person by nature & sometimes people don't understand people who think with their creative side...i know this from personal experience cos as ya know, i'm a writer...and sometimes people just don't get me.
i don't know about you, but i feel that Carmine is very gracious & he appreciates his fans/their support. i've heard good things about how he's answered emails & such.
true, there are girls out there that can't distinguish b/t Danny Messer the character & Carmine Giovinazzo the man behind the character, but there are those of us that find a nice balance, ya know? like Carmine's said himself, the two of 'em are kinda similiar, but not completely...anyone with half a brain would realize that Carmine might be incorporating some of his "Staten Island Roots" into his role, but one must also remember that Danny Messer is a fictional character!!!
i've been a fan for quite some time & i've never gotten the impression that Carmine's pompous or unapproachable, he seems very down-to-earth to me.
whatever...i like dirty boyz... ;o
