ASPECTS OF SHADE
In this post we will approach the three aspects to shade.If you accomplish two of these,you’ve successfully thrown shade.
1.Severity
The shade almost always has to be thick.If you are going to come up with something weak or baseless to shade someone,then you missed the point of throwing shade entirely.Do your research,and make sure it gets people pressed
2.Response
If the shade you are throwing gets ignored or gets you dragged easily,you are not throwing your shade correctly.Optimal shade will cause meltdowns,and or trips to Google by pressed stanbases.If none of that happens,you might need to re-evaluate your shade tactics.Also be on the lookout for CAPS LOCK,BOLD OR EXTREMELY GIANT FONT.If you see any of this occur in response to your shade,then you succeded.
3.Execution
The best shade comes sly.If you get people looking in the dictionary for shade,you have done your job here.Throwing shade is an art form one can possess if used the right way.If you can’t do it sneaky and sly,GO BOLD WITH IT.Remember,Perfectly Good shade can be ruined if you don’t know your way with words.If your shade is confusing,then you haven’t thrown the shade correctly.

PRINCIPLES OF DRAGGING
1-KNOW YOUR PLACE.
I cannot stress this enough!If you stan for a Basic Bitch,You should NOT be on Beyonce stan forums bragging about how the basic bitch you stan for is better than Beyonce.If you stan for someone who has NO talent whatsoever, You shouldn’t be on music forums bashing others for “not knowing/recognizing talent” when your fave dances like **** and can’t hold a note on stage.
2-DO YOUR RESEARCH.
If someone shades your fave,you drag them BUT before you go head first into dragging,Make sure you have done your research,and that your receipts are accurate as possible.Otherwise,you make yourself look like a fool on the internet.
3-MAKE SURE YOU ARE A FACTOR.
When stanbases are known to be good at dragging,they earn notoriety.This can be a good thing and a bad thing.On the positive end,Everyone knows that your stanbase shouldn’t be ****ed with,gaining power over the other stanbases.On the other hand,If you get too Drag happy/Go off too much,this can work against your fave.The best thing in this situation is to gain notoriety without going overboard.
