I want to know; what is the worst fic you have ever read? For me, it's probably "Tokyo Mew Mew: No Hope Left," although, I came across one that has a blatant Mary Sue, but surprisingly good spelling called "SDR2 FANFIC: Swimming in Terror," found here: http://kawaiiwolf3.deviantart.com/art/SDR2-FANFIC-Swimming-in-Terror-CHAPTER-1-409519809
So, what's the worst YOU'VE ever read?
'Celebrian'. That fic left me mentally scarred for life. I was literally gagging throughout the entire process of reading it. Luckily, our great hS here has killed the fic.
Next is 'legolas by laura'. Either that or 'My Immortal'. Honestly, I had a migraine after both. Both are so bad, so ridiculous, they actually made me laugh with what's left of my sanity.
Ugh.

... I had a mostly-complete MST of Clbr__n up, as a way to let people read it without having to suffer through it undiluted. Never finished it, though, and I guess I must have taken it down when Freewebs started throwing fits about unspecified stuff.

Is "The Girl And Her Dragon," a How to Train Your Dragon fic. This fic actually caused me to change the way I write because the grammar is so persistently godawful that anything resembling it gives me flashbacks.
The Harry Potter Legendary "Subjugation" (which was lost from the Internet last I checked) is probably next on the list, though. It's awful both in its subject matter and because it's technically well-written enough that it just drags on and on, without any humorous typos, malapropisms, or mangled meanings to get in the way of the yucky things going on. There was an attempt to PPC the thing in 2006, but it didn't get very far because there's so little to work with in the humor department. I am going to take it down before I'm done, though—I have story and character plans.

...in the Rainbow Factory.
It's not often that I find a fic that really upsets me-- I have a tendency to laugh off most things that aren't "Gorefest 9001" or "Let's-abuse-my-least-favourite-character" stories-- but this piece of trash featured an institution that willingly murdered children for no real good reason at all.
I can't describe how much I loathe this story.
It was missioned by KittyNoodles and Riese a while back, here and here.
Oh yes, I have read that particular fic. While I would not say it is one of the worst fics I have ever read, it is rather infuriating. The song this was based off of I actually enjoy, and still listen to it. However, you know what I think of when I hear that song? The Rainbow Factory shown by BronyDanceParty in his PMV, where they suck out the color from ponies for use in the rainbow. The visual that creates is morbid, and very, very uncanon, but interesting, and makes much more sense then having it be foals. Watching the color be drained from bright, pastel colored ponies, leaving behind grey, lifeless bodies is a fantastic visual. Grinding foals into P8 juice is not, and is only sickening.
I will say one good thing about Rainbow Factory though. It gave us a fantastic Rainbow Dash Presents.
Hands down, THE NEW GIRL on Voyager (Star Trek: Voyager) Where to begin? The SPaG is hilariously horrible, leading to interesting turns of phrase like "nanaprobes" and "the Bog Queen". The plot is nonsensical, involving a transdimensionally hopping Mary Sue who is caught in a love…something with all the young men on Voyager (including one she de-aged into a teenager). But she's "Christian" and therefore doesn't hang out with boys EVER and can't make a commitment to any of the boys fawning over her! She's so dedicated to her ideals! Also the Borg have taken Captain Janeway, but that's not important. At least, not as important as Harry, Icheb, and a de-aged Chakotay all vying for beautiful, pure Shaundrah's affections! It's so stupid that it actually gets funny after a point.
However, the fic that made me the most mad was Red Dragon (Star Trek: TNG). The Mary Sue is a whiny immature teenager who somehow has the rank of Commander and also is the last of her kind, a race called the Draconians that can shapeshift into dragons. Riker is turned into a rapist, bringing up memories of her last commanding officer who raped her - and of couse she couldn't press charges in a progressive society because then she couldn't angst about it to her boyfriend Data, who, by the way, is suffering strange fits of emotion and hits her during one of them. Then she breaks the laws of physics by transforming into a dragon and using her weight to crush a ship IN SPACE and then being rescued from the explosion by Lore, who makes her a cybernetic hand and half-brain to fix her up. Cyborg shapeshifter-dragon teenager. Yep.
Sorry to rant, but like I said, it made me mad.
The terribadest fic I've ever read? Well, excluding bleepfics and legendary badfics and the like, TSAB DOWNFALL: Halo War (NSFW, NSFB, Not Safe for Nanoha fans) which is eleven chapters of alternating horribly bland boringess and trivialised genocide. Yes, you've read that right, trivialised genocide. And torture. Not to mention that every canon that has more than one line is gods-below-damned replaced. This 'fic actually caused me to cry. It's that bad. Small wonder I co-wrote a mission on it.
That thing was godawful. Though I must assume that fic is also Not Safe For Halo Fans too.
I'd say a little horror called 'spirit of bravery beginning,' a Rise of The Guardians fic that has since been deleted.
Thank goodness. All the... shooking and... arrgh...
The fic is called Pinkamena: The Pink Shadow, supposedly set in the MLP universe, though Ponyville is neigh unrecognizable in this fic. I would link to it, but for some reason I am unable to access the google doc that this monstrosity is archived on, so I will have to link to the main doc here, and tell you to click on the name of the fic. Now, it is a half-finished MST, and has been for several months, so don't expect the full snarky goodness of a proper MST.
So, why is it the worst fic I have ever read? Well, the grammar, while not the best, is leaps and bounds ahead of what most would consider the worst fanfiction. That is the best possable thing I can say about this sticking piece of-
The characters are so insanely Out Of Character it makes me sick. Pinkamena is back from the infamous Cupcakes, and everypony says, "Welp, that's just crazy old Pinkie Pie! No harm done, except for the pony she just gutted! Just don't eat any cupcakes for a month or so!" Equestria is thrown completely out of sorts. Religion for some stupid reason comes to Equestria. So, is this religion a ponified version of several different religions brought together in one world, causing some conflicts in interests? No, it's only Christianity and Satanism directly from earth, brought to Equestria through the main character Dark Slash after he returned from Earth.
Oh yeah. The main character.
Dark Slash.
Where do I begin with this guy? He is a red and black alicorn with a katana as a cutie mark to represent his natural affinity for cutting ponies with swords, along with a second cutie mark behind it of 666, representing his deal with the Devil for supreme power. Yes, The Devil, as in Lucifer, Christianity's favorite villain. As a reward for his imortal soul, he now has a demon in his hooves which he can call forth whenever he wished, as well as superpony speed, strength, and- wait, did I say that the demon was in his hooves? Yes, I did, and not figuratively: his hooves are now white because they are the prison of one of Hell's greatest demons. This demon is a complete asshole. I'm sorry, I know I should not curse here, but that is the nicest thing I can say about that festering little...mmph, thing that dares even GLANCE at Equestria and it's citizens. Another thing about Dark Slash is his horn, another gift by the Devil. Oh yes, he was a pegasus before his little deal, and now he is an alicorn. Now, this should be fantastic news for him, right? WRONG! He hates alicorns, and anything to do with them! He constantly angsts on and on about how, "Boo ho, I am an alicorn now! I am going to BRUTALLY MURDER ANYPONY WHO MENTIONS IT! Because I am so torcherd by the fact that I AM A GOD NOW!" Further, he is married to Twilight Sparkle, has adopted Spike as a son, has brought not only earth religon but earth military with him from the other world, has a mashine that can trasport him "through the fourth wall," and...
You know, I think I will stop there though there is plenty, PLENTY, more I could yell about. The thing about this particular fic is the emotion it brings out of me. Most badfics make me shake my head, or laugh, or grumble about the poor writing ability of the authors (sorry, I know, don't rage against the authors, but I don't demean them personally when I grumble) or something along those lines. This fic, at the very thought of it, makes me angry. Very angry. Like, I punched things repeatedly to vent out anger levels of angry. I never get that mad, but this thing...
So yeah. This is the absolute, no questions asked, worst fic I have ever read.
Probably "Forbidden Fruit The Temptation of Edward Cullen".
That panda, man... that PANDA...
This is a massive tie on my end. It seems that I have the absolute worst luck in finding terrible fanfiction, 'cause I just gravitate towards it even if I'm not trying to find something bad.
I'd say that the worst fic I've ever read is a three-way tie between Subject 23 (a Mass Effect self-insert with a main character who was loved by all despite the fact that he's a complete psychopath and extreme character bashing that the author even tried to justify by intentionally ignoring some parts of canon), If You Don't Have Something Nice to say (a Fire Emblem fic with one of the whiniest Mary Sues ever and an Idiot Plot that boggles the mind--and let's not get into how it romanticizes sexual harassment after the halfway point), and From Another World (a tale set in an alternate universe of Mass Effect where it's AU in name only and the only thing that happens is lots of plot regurgitation and a lot of a massive, self-aggrandizing Gary Stu who says he's doing a lot of good for the galaxy when he really is just acting like an idiot while coming up with numerous excuses to stick to the canon plot--oh, and the author plagiarized a vast majority of it).
Probably the one I sporked in my second mission, but even then it might be because abusing Sakura Kinomoto (in this case in a very literal and unpleasant meaning) is my berserk button.
There are far more terrible fics than that one, and I guess all Legendary Badfics and Bleepfics would qualify, but I never read those. I like my brain sane, thank you.
