Quality control?
to:
This page is supposed to be for high-quality fics, right? Well, from the recent influx of frankly sub-par recommendations, I\\\'m beginning to suspect that many authors simply view this page as another way to advertise their fics. I recently deleted an entry in which one troper posed as two different tropers in order to post \\\'reviews\\\' about her own fic. Her TvTropes handle was also identical to her FFN username.
My question is, what is the appropriate action? There are a few fics up that are probably being put up by the authors themselves, but unlike the earlier example there\\\'s no hardcore proof. I feel that this page is going to become filled with terrible recommendations uploaded by sockpuppets. If a fic is just genuinely bad, are we allowed to delete it? Is it our moral duty to society?

Lao Ai and the Queen Mother had kids, leading Lao Ai to lead a rebellion against the King of Qin, who promptly put down the rebellion, executed Lao Ai, and exiled his mother. That\\\'s right, a huge penis started a rebellion. Did we mention that this king shortly afterwards became Qin Shi Huang, the first true Emperor of China?

* John Edwards has been getting PlayedForLaughs in this way, ever since the sex tape he made with his mistress got out.
* Jonah Falcon\\\'s junk has been the subject of comedy on more than one occasion, especially since he appeared on \\\"Howard Stern on Demand: George Takei\\\'s Gay Bachelor Party\\\" and Spike TV\\\'s \\\"MANswers.\\\"
* Errol Flynn, also renowned for boffing half of Hollywood (men and women, alike) ... Hence the expression \\\'\\\'in like Flynn\\\'\\\' and quite a few gags made at his expense in various media. More to the point, Flynn would [[IncrediblyLamePun ham it up]] with his pork sword, too--at a Hollywood party, he actually played \\\"You Are My Sunshine\\\" and \\\"The Star-Spangled Banner\\\" on a piano using only his penis, according to \\\'\\\'MusicForChameleons.\\\'\\\'
* Ron Jeremy himself gets it PlayedForLaughs, as noted in the Stand-Up Comedy and Porn sections.
* President Lyndon Baines Johnson had a really big, er ... [[PunnyName johnson]]. [[ICallHimMisterHappy He called it \\\"Jumbo\\\"]] and was known to show it off at any provocation, \\\'\\\'including\\\'\\\' waving it at a group of reporters when they asked why the United States was still in Vietnam. (This was back when the press did their best to \\\'\\\'protect\\\'\\\' the honor of the President, obviously.)
** It makes the Australian slogan of the time supporting the Vietnam War \\\"All the way with L-B-J\\\" [[UnfortunateImplications kind of disturbing]].
* Inverted with Steven Merchant, but still PlayedForLaughs:
--> \\\"I\\\'ve often felt that, for a tall man, I\\\'ve been a bit short-changed.\\\"
** Mocked on \\\'\\\'The Ricky Gervais Show\\\'\\\', when they are talking about surviving a plane crash on a desert island.
--> \\\'\\\'\\\'Ricky\\\'\\\'\\\': \\\"So we\\\'ve crashed on the island, and Steven\\\'s knob is ruined. We\\\'ll have to eat it to survive for three days...\\\"\\\\\\\\
\\\'\\\'\\\'Steven\\\'\\\'\\\': \\\"I should be so lucky.\\\"
* Chris Pine\\\'s bulge is pretty legendary, and it\\\'s been made fun of more than once--especially since he\\\'s the new [[StarTrek Captain Kirk]], any time something about his sex life comes up, there\\\'ll be quips in the entertainment news industry, such as \\\"He\\\'s no longer setting his \\\'phaser\\\' on stun!\\\"
* Dan Payne has been subject to it. While filming \\\'\\\'Mulligans\\\'\\\', the film crew had to re-shoot a scene where he jumps naked into a lake at night, where the camera is about 50 feet behind and over him, many, \\\'\\\'many\\\'\\\' times because he\\\'s proportionate (he\\\'s 6\\\'4\\\"/194cm and very well built, you do the math) and his wang kept flapping wildly to and fro. This coming from his co-star for the scene, a(n admittedly gay and out) guy.
* Brandon Routh. See the \\\'\\\'Film/{{Superman}} Returns\\\'\\\' poster example further up; this incident is what spurred jokes about his endowment in the entertainment industry.
* FrankSinatra\\\'s bigness was the subject of jokes. Former wife Ava Gardner is reported to have quipped, “He only weighs 120, but 100 pounds is cock.”
* PatrickStewart has also had [[PlayedForLaughsmuch ado made about his]] [[IncrediblyLamePun long pork longsword]].
* A bizarre historical example comes from ImperialChina: one of the top advisors (and entrepreneurs) of the state of Qin, Lu Buwei, decided to end his affair with the Queen Mother (for various reasons), and found the man with the largest penis in the kingdom (a guy named Lao Ai) to replace him; he was disguised as a eunuch by plucking out all his facial hair. Lao Ai and the Queen Mother had kids, leading Lao Ai to lead a rebellion against the King of Qin, who promptly put down the rebellion, executed Lao Ai, and exiled his mother. That\\\'s right, a huge penis started a rebellion. Did we mention that this king shortly afterwards became Qin Shi Huang, the first true Emperor of China?
* Greeks in Antiquity thought that a small penis was a sign of virility, an inversion of BiggerIsBetterInBed. Large penises, on the other hand, were always seen as crude and funny.
* Dorking, Surrey, UK. There\\\'s a gigantic statue featuring a certain animal at the roundabout.

Suffice to say, I don\\\'t like the fact that you misrepresented my actions in your appeal.
* Milton Berle gets this from time to time. For example, he\\\'s been referenced in the video game Destroy All Humans; if you read the minds of women, you sometimes get this response. \\\"I wonder if it\\\'s true what they say about Milton Berle...\\\" This prompts the thinker to whinny like a horse gleefully at the thought.
* DavidBowie, whose crotch (a.k.a. \\\"[[FanNickname the Area]]\\\") has become a MemeticBadass.

* Conan O\\\'Brien, according to the cast of short-lived show \\\'\\\'Andy Richter Controls The Universe\\\'\\\'.
* JimCarrey, as seen in movies like \\\'\\\'All In Good Taste\\\'\\\'. In real life, he\\\'s done stunts like show up at the 20th anniversary special for The Comedy Store wearing nothing but a sock on his penis.
* StephenColbert [[PlayedForLaughs is known to joke about the large size of his own package]] [[AlterEgoActing while in character]].
* Subverted with Willem Dafoe--there\\\'s jokes and stories abound about his endowment thanks to \\\'\\\'Film/{{Antichrist}}\\\'\\\', but not only has he gone on record saying [[http://nymag.com/daily/entertainment/2009/07/willem_dafoe_didnt_put_his_own.html it wasn\\\'t him in the nude]], but [[http://nymag.com/daily/entertainment/2009/12/willem_dafoe_getting_a_little.html he\\\'s not happy about being Played For Laughs]] like this.
* Roddy [=McDowall=] was not only endowed but flexible, and supposedly performed self-fellatio in front of others as a \\\"party trick.\\\"
* David Duchovny\\\'s size has been PlayedForLaughs as well, especially when he had problems with a \\\"sex addiction.\\\"
