#Kpop derp

It's been so funny and interesting to me getting into Taylor Swift after already having long been into Stray Kids and kpop in general, so here are some funny parallels I've noticed between the two and/or their fandoms:

Ryan Reynolds

The Vault/Chan's Laptop

Really dumb fun fandom energy. Like please, I did not expect the ship name Toe, but that is the only one I am using now. Please I am begging Stays to have this energy when skz start dating publicly

Videos appreciating them existing in cute

Taylor's cats 🤝 Minho's cats

Frothing at the mouth over good/cathartic lyrics and the analysis of such

Ed Sheeran appreciation

Being serious derps irl/online with fans

Loving how their hearts and minds work and how they convey the contents of the same

Reluctant song ranking tiktoks

Knowing exactly which era a photo was from solely based on hair and/or clothes

Knowing details about them that would sound really creepy to someone outside the fandom it's not creepy if they say it in an interview or behind the scenes I swear

TOO MANY SIGNIFICANT NUMBERS and on that note, lowkey wanna leave the list here solely for the sake of things

Learning vocabulary because of them. Seriously. Why did it take me until the last month to figure out that Miroh meant maze and that Clé means key when I've been stanning them since 2021. I'm so mad.

Songs instead of therapy but please go to therapy if you legit need it. "this is me trying" was not about using lyrics as a replacement for professional help. That's a Placebo.

"yes they can actually sing live and here's the proof"

Very involved in their songs from start to finish and it shows and we love them for it

OH SHOOT—I just realized Taylor's Versions vs SKZ 2020/2021—

ME! lol. I do mean the song but also technically me myself as well now heh

Writing love/breakup songs except it's completely made up

Extremely prolific

"so I made this song at stupid o'clock in the morning and here it is lol" and it's the freaking sparkly cd meme

We CARE care about album drops and about them making the money off of it that they deserve as artists

Wanting merch but wiping the lint off the bottom of our wallets to try to find the money

"Please let one measly concert seat be available even if it sucks"

"wait a second, they/their fandoms AREN'T hysterical like the media paints them to be?" *insert mental hurricane that eventually dies down here* "wait, am I actually considering joining them??" *narrator voice: but by then, it was already too late*

Seeing the same memes/edits but in different fandoms but it's not memes I've seen in non-music fandoms. Like literally. Just watched one.

Acronyms that look like keyboard smashes to everyone else please though Swifties you're way worse please have mercy on this baby I'm still learning—

Recycling quotes from haters into song lyrics, like please yes queen/king, continue, go off

Giant creepy creatures as tour set pieces

Taylor and Chan being parents even though they have never actually had children

And on that note, knowing everybody in their industries

Rolling out our list of reasons like a scroll every time we say we stan them and the other person so much as inhales to start a response. We could probably recite that list in our sleep at this point.

Stay Stay Stay HAHAHAHAHAHA

I seriously need to shut up or I will get nothing done today but yeah if you stan one, please give the other a chance because you're doing yourself a disservice if you don't.

gghhghgg happy anniversary ugh too many favorites Kpop couples....

Dahyun/wheein - derping away with a healthy lesbian night in

Dahyun /Jin - Jin would prepare something ordinary kinda cliche but v sweet and dahyun would be embarrassed by his antics

Doyoung/taeyong - are they at home? They're being so wholesome it's illegal. Are they on tour? They're sneaking away to do the craziest shit that is illegal.

Chanyeol/solar - one of the most extra couples to exist, fine dining and hotel room with all the bells and whistles wink wink

Seulgi/anyone she seems worthy of monogamous status - that pink strap-on is coming out of the drawer

Hoshi/woozi - I have no clue but it'll be so emotional

Jeonghan/Vernon - either super low-key or they're high af, teasing to the max

DBB anon

THANK YOU FOR THE KIND WORDS! Let's talk about these!!!

Dahyun/Wheein — an unexpected but welcome cross-ship!

Dahyun/Jin — YES AND YES, Jin is domestic af and Dahyun is cheeky but secretly appreciates it

Doyoung/Taeyoung — "so wholesome it's illegal" is SO apt for them

Chanyeol/Solar — A HIGH-CLASS COUPLE NO DOUBT!!

Seulgi/anyone-who-seems-worthy-of-monogamous-status (this made me laugh out loud btw) — SO VALID, SO ACCURATE

Jeonghan/Vernon — oh they're high, they're on the couch, they're watching bad movies and they're fucking A LOT

I think the biggest factor in this is when Johnny Depp was huge: the mid to late 90s and 2000s. For boomers, I would imagine most wouldn’t know much about his movies other than pirates. And while a lot of younger gen xers would have been the target demographic for some of his works in the 90s, I don’t think older generations are that emotionally attached to Derp as they would other actors.

For example, my gen x mother doesn’t care one way or the other for Derp (and def wouldn’t go see a movie just for him); however, she was very much so questioning all the woman who came out against Bill Cosby, still watches the Cosby Show (almost defiantly as tho to say she stands by him), and even if she finally came around to believe (SOME of) the women, was one of those ppl who felt given his age he shouldn’t face any jail time.

The biggest difference being she grew up with Bill Cosby. He was a comedian in her childhood, and she would have been in hs when the Cosby show came out. My mother loved how he pushed education with black ppl, loved a different world (she would have been college aged when that came out), etc. He was more prevalent pop culture wise in her time than mine. Sure I watched the Cosby Show reruns growing up, but when I heard the allegations, it was nothing for me to dead him in my mind. But my mother had a much harder time (and still doesn’t) after growing up seeing him in a good light. And so turning her around is hard.

Meanwhile, as a millennial, Derp was inescapable at a point. ESPECIALLY if you were an alternative kid, he was in every movie the weird goth/emo/punk/burnouts would like. Pirates, the Corpse Bride, Sweeney Todd, etc. He was even in Willy Wonka, and most ppl didn’t hate him in that (just hated the overall plot and story changes). And when that Willy Wonka movie came out, gen z would have been kids. They would have been kids during Pirates, during the Alice in Wonderland movies (that my ass had no desire to see with it’s weird cgi ass), etc.

This is why older generations get so mad when they get cancelled by younger generations because their real fans don’t have a problem with them. It’s the younger generation looking at them like “uh dude wtf.” The people loudest against Dave Chappelle for example probably weren’t huge fans of his when they were young. They probably saw a few sketches from the chappelle show and that was it. Gen Z were the ones mostly pissed at his first comedy special on Netflix, while gen xers and millennials mostly (not all, but mostly) rolled their eyes at the “controversy.”

A situation like how libs turned on JKR is rare: it’s easier to convince ppl who already don’t like you/don’t care one way or the other/don’t know you to dislike you than someone who was a fan. Look at the different responses between Keke Palmer’s no name having baby daddy and Jonah Hill who both got outed essentially doing the same thing: trying to control women’s bodies as tho expressing yourself is somehow a slight against the man a woman is with. And yet while Keke’s bd got nothing but hate, there were a lot of sympathetic takes to Jonah as he had a legit career and most ppl like him generally.

People always have a hard time letting go of their idols, but I think that millennials and gen z’s tendency to really go balls deep with their favorite celebs/influencers (how easily and commonly they form parasocial relationships with them, fan culture/fandoms, etc) it means that millennials and gen z are primed to be so emotionally invested in these ppl, as well as build huge chunks of their identity to worshipping these ppl (kpop stans are a great example of this), that disavowing them is impossible for them. And especially with how mental health/therapy talk and social justice language is what they use to both stan and dislike people, they build up defenses that will only be deterred by a huge social movement that vilifies people who think like they do.

What’s going to happen is in 15-20 years, hell maybe even within the next ten years considering things get “renaissances” despite only being around about a decade (“Twilight wasn’t THAT problematic; it was just a bunch of hate on something girls liked” or something), someone will make a documentary or a revisit of the trial. And they’re going to review the court documents and see clearly how Derp was obviously the abuser, and whoever does this deep dive will criticize millennials and gen z for siding with Derp. And the younger generation will turn to their parents and ask what they thought and be aghast to learn their parents were team Derp. And it’ll only be when public opinion changes that they’ll disavow him.

As bleak as the numbers for younger people are, I have faith that public opinion will change. In the 90s, a lot of people believed OJ was innocent. Especially black ppl who believed this was society’s attempt to (yet again) vilify an “innocent” black man. But let’s be real: we know he did it. And if that same trial happened to day, his ass would be in prison. This trial is our generation’s OJ trial. And in due time, the tide will change and people will see him as the evil, drunken bastard he is. And anyone who defended Derp then will have nothing to say.

Johnny Depp’s Popularity Decreased During Trial—Despite Social Media Craze—Survey Suggests

This is from June 2022 . The fact millennials and gen z had the smallest change and we want to mock boomers for being brainwashed by Facebook. You're going to hell

This feels like a, how addicted to social media spectacle are you? with millennials not doing good and gen z fully suffering from some brain damage

GOT7 cuando otro miembro tiene el celular lleno de fotos derp y hace “copias” en el celular de su novia por si lo quieren matar y asi tener evidencias

Mark

Mark no le prestaría importancia, siempre y cuando él no se diera cuenta. Pero no se enojaría ni se vengaría de quien lo hizo, para él, era de lo más normal porque él también solía usar a JB como meme en las conversaciones con los chicos, así que es de esperarse que también lo usen a él.

JB

JB se enojaría un poco, tal vez.

Iría donde la novia de BamBam y le preguntaría amablemente si ella sabía algo del tema, como un favor le pediría si las puede borrar de su celular. Luego, él se encargaría de borrar las fotos del celular de BamBam sin que él se de cuenta... aunque no le importaría simplemente quitarle el celular de las manos y borrarlas. Más tarde pensaría en una buena venganza.

Jackson

No creo que a Jackson le moleste que otro tenga fotos derp de él, en realidad le parece divertido. Es más no le va a importar matar al miembro porque esas “evidencias” no servirán con él, se reiría de los intentos del otro por querer salvarse de lo que se le viene.

Jinyoung

Jinyoung inhalaría y exhalaría mientras cuenta hasta diez. A la vez, piensa en cuáles serían sus propios movimientos contra Yugyeom, quien siempre se esmera en sacarlo de quicio.

Tal vez, darle una lección al maknae sería la mejor solución. Por lo que iría donde la novia para sacarle disimuladamente algo de información que pudiera serle de ayuda.

Youngjae

— Hyung, por qué haces esas cosas.

Youngjae no se enojaría por eso, todo lo contrario, reiría como siempre lo hace.

Probablemente, se reiría avergonzadamente al enterarse de que la novia de Jinyoung tenía esas fotos en su poder.

BamBam

BamBam no se enojaría ni intentaría recuperar las fotos, pero tampoco se quedará con los brazos cruzados, él definitivamente va a cobrar venganza. En el momento menos esperado, BamBam cobrará la mejor de las venganzas

Y luego haría un dab para celebrar, nadie se metía con él sin lamentarlo luego.

Yugyeom

Molestar a Yugyeom tal vez no sea tan buena idea, no es que se moleste, el problema es que él tomaría venganza.

Primero, actuaría muy lindo con la novia del otro miembro, haciendo todo lo que ella quiera para convencerla de que borre esas fotos.

Luego, tomaría una foto derp del miembro en cuestión y la subiría a Instagram o Twitter.
