Cucumberbum Bandersnatch is hideous and I would not bone him. 0/10

-Seriously though. Of all the dudes Tumblr thirsts over, he is by far the worst-looking, like he could pull his head into his neck at any moment or blink with vertical eyelids. Not to mention he's white and cis male, they're supposed to hate them more than everyone.


But I am not surprised. Because Tumblr.:c

And people wonder why His Royal Buttness Cumbery doesn't like his fans. Ron Perlman actually is hostage by a conspiracy made by his wife, the conspiracy is she really likes shoes, which is why he appears in so many shitty movies. So maybe Bacon Cucumber is a victim of the same terrible conspiracy.

It's his voice. I did not understand it for the longest time because I only ever saw pictures. When I finally heard him speak in a movie trailer, I had this moment of "Oh, now it makes sense." He's got a very smooth, low voice with an erotic quality to it. Personally, I can't get past the lizard face but I am like 99% sure that's why he gets so many panties wet.

Quite frankly I'm kind of amazed to see the Cumberbitches still getting up to shit, since Cumberbatch's popularity took a nosedive post-Dashcon. There was a lot of wank over his role in 12 Years a Slave and his ancestors being plantation owners. Along with him being cast as Khan Noonien Singh in Star Trek: Into Darkness, and being cast as Dr. Strange when Tumblr favored a darker-skinned actor proposed by some fan casting, Cumberbatch has generally fallen out of favor with the larger Tumblr crowd. So I guess I'm not too surprised to see those still clinging onto him have gone full tinfoil hat over him committing the crime of being in a relationship with some woman.

It's almost refreshing, in a way, seeing such classic fangirl whinging that's just nothing but being catty bitches 'cause they're jealous of a pretty lady taking their husbando.

Have they never read Dr Strange? The dude's appearance is based on Vincent Price! Who is white, shock, gasp, oh my goodness! Stop the presses!

He's also depicted as kind of ethnically ambiguous in more recent comics. He's olive-skinned, really.

Didn't stop Tumblr from being mad because their fan casting was passed over for somebody with name recognition and box office draw.

I found these guys pretty soon after they appeared on Tumblr, which was not long after Cumberbatch announced his engagement, and I check in on them every so often. Essentially, they believe that BC's wife is some sort of psychopathic prostitute who he isn't even legally married to, and who is blackmailing him for purposes that are unclear at this stage. A lot of them also believe that their infant son is either several babies hired from casting agencies, or a very realistic doll. One piece of evidence submitted for the child actor theory was that the kid was wearing yellow socks, and boys can't wear yellow, therefore it was a baby girl that they had borrowed. Seriously. From what I remember, it all kicked off when the engagement announcement missed out one of BC's middle initial, and it spiralled autistically from there.

The main players are:

https://wikianonbc.tumblr.com
http://benedicts-third-testicle.tumblr.com
http://carmen1969stuff.tumblr.com

However, skeptics are like supermodels in that you can be the in thing one season, then you're over just like that. Various other big names in the community have randomly been declared liars/baiters (withholding 'tea' for attention) etc and been shunned. At least one has been doxxed to the point that she abandoned ship (I actually felt sorry for this kid, people contacted her school and posted photos of her seven year old brother all over the internet). So by the time you read this, those blogs could be obsolete.

Screen capping is a bit of a ball ache, because a lot of them have infinite scrolling on their blogs, so once a post is a few months old, good luck finding it again. I'll track down some of their greatest hits and post screenshots if anyone actually reads this thread, because I think it might take me a while. A couple of the blogs I listed above have 'important posts' sections that you can flick through, and they're not the type to rage delete. The general gist is:

  • BC was forced into faking a fiancee for Oscar season, and was hooked up with a hooker.
  • She went rogue and appeared on a red carpet with a fake baby bump, blindsiding him and his team.
  • Their marriage was faked, by government officials who later retired (SUPER FISHY obvs) and the UK's answer to Judge Judy, Judge Rinder.
  • They faked a baby, and now trot out hired kids or dolls. There's debate over whether they faked a birth registration or not. Skeptics LOVE searching government registries, believing they're 100% accurate and up to date (I can't even find myself on half the websites they use for proof of things not existing)
  • They think the entire internet is conspiring against them. This is one of the weirdest things they do. If you post an innocuous tweet mentioning BC's name, they WILL post it and try to find out where you live and work. You'll be accused of being hired by his PR to push the lie based on evidence such as: you saw him walking down a street and tweeted about it BUT YOU'VE NEVER TWEETED ABOUT HIM BEFORE. Therefore you must be in on the scam, not just a person who saw a celebrity one time.
  • Sophie Hunter (the wife) is just generally blackmailing people and causing havoc wherever she goes, often through the medium of set up paparazzi shots and public domestic violence.
  • There's also some stuff about her making things up on her CV. This is actually vaguely believable, because theatre companies have come out and said she never worked for them. Credit where credit's due.
  • Assorted celebrities are on their side, and sending them secret messages of agreement via interviews and award ceremony audience shots. The entire cast of Sherlock, plus Mark Strong and Keira Knightley have at one point or another scratched their nose and this has been interpreted as some sort of coded message.

EDIT: This link is a pretty comprehensive run down of the entire business.

My screenshots won't upload for some reason, but they just explained that he's being blackmailed because she's a prostitute and there was this crazy claim that Benedict will wear a blue handkerchief in his pocket when he wants to tell Tumblr that he is ready to end this charade. This seems to be accepted as fact for some reason, and they're waiting on it like it's the Second Coming.

I went through some of the blogs you mentioned and I am pretty creeped out. Usually, obsessed fangirls who hate the wife or gf of their husbando are pretty innocent enough, sperging occasionally and ignoring the woman in the relationship, but this seems like taking it a step too far. I'm not gonna pretend they're going to stalk him or anything, but collecting all this info on when and where they got together and trying to analyse Benedict C.'s face/body language is really weird even for tumblrinas. Especially since, like you said, they seem to think the entire internet is against them and ofc only their view of the matter is correct.

And oh god, I hoped the whole Sherlock (and the actors involved with it) drama on Tumblr would have died out ages ago. Not like the new wave of sperging is any better, but still.

and now back to lurking on the farms.

All this reminds me of the tinhats from the Supernatural fandom a few years back.

Those people were fucking nuts.

I'll be honest, Fanfiction.net might be a shithole, but the best thing Xing ever did was ban fics featuring real people in a non-historical fashion.

They've just all migrated to Archive of Our Own. That place is ten times the cancer FF.net ever was.

I know A/B/O was started on livejournal (yes, people still use that) as part of the kinkmeme because yeaaaaaa... fangirls are just the worst.

I used to lurk these blogs for the lolcow :autism: before I discovered the Farms, and from what I can tell they all thought he was faking it to make himself look like a ~*family man uwu*~ and make the Academy people more likely to give him an Oscar. The blackmail bandwagon mainly started when he didn't get an Oscar and yet Mr Cucumberpatch didn't kick her ass to the kerb immediately.
They all thought the babby was fake for ages (at one point they thought an actual baby actor was hired for PR shoots) until they didn't anymore and lots of sperging would ensue whenever anyone tried to suggest otherwise.

The funniest thing was that both the skeptics and the whiteknights were both equally as cringey as one another, as at one point the skeptics did uncover a particularly autistic attempt to constantly edit Sophie Hunter's wikipedia page to make herself sound much more accomplished than she actually was, and the whiteknights were REEEEEEing the entire time. It's a cringe horseshoe.

To be fair I never quite believed that they'd dated secretly for 6 years before making their first public appearance. I always got the impression they dated for a couple of months, fell pregnant and decided to just get married and get on with it. Both were nearing 40, you know what you want at that stage of life, and they'd found it.

The fan girl conspiracies are pretty hilarious. I very much doubt his wife lets it get her down.

Credit where credit's due, they have hit on the occasional piece of actual weirdness, like the apparent PR campaign to fluff up her CV. Stopped clocks and all that.

I checked back in on them today and they're freaking out about an empty wine glass that apparently proves she's drinking while either pregnant or faking a pregnancy. Sophie isn't even in the photo, and I'm pretty sure the wine glass belongs to the woman sitting in the next seat.

There was a particularly lulzy saga (back in these blogs "golden days" of 2014/2015) where Benadryl's whiteknights tried to dox a skeptic called wikianonbc, resulting in her reporting them to ACORN which is apparently Australia's cyber-crime unit, because getting doxed by some 16 year old fangirl is totally on the same tier as "hacking, scams, fraud, identity theft, attacks on computer systems and illegal or prohibited online content". I just can't get over the fact that she literally tried to get the cyberpolice to backtrace them. :story:
Now she has one of those blogs that you can only view on the dashboard of your Tumblr.

If you search #shamwow on Tumblr and filter by text posts, you can see a lot of old skeptic posts from a while back.

Also in case anyone needed a cringe-inducing dose of mega-SJW meets skeptic, look no further than https://ummzaksbest.tumblr.com/
