any fanfic story possessing any two or more of the following qualities*:

1) posted with an icon of avril lavigne.
2) warns for 'death, suicide.'
3) uses abbreviations such as 'LOL' or faces such as '^.^' in its summary.
4) says it is not a mary-sue.
5) posted with a header spelled incorrectly.
6) posted with personal thanks for past reviews or demands for more reviews.
7) posted with an icon stuffed with angsty lyrics.
8) is a songfic.
9) uses // // for thoughts--frequently.
10) i can't think of anything else.

-Thanks more than two people in the introduction, or is dedicated to more than two people.
-Characters' names misspelled.
-"The way J.K. SHOULD have done it!" "I know this kind of story isn't supposed to go here, but I hope you'll forgive me when you've read it." "No beta - I had to put this up right away!" etc.
-Warns for "cutting."
