Meme! :D
I feel like it's been forever since I've done one of these, so here we go. A fun fandom meme, brought to you courtesy of lennongirl. :D
Comment to this entry and I'll pick three of your fandoms. You must then update your journal and answer the following questions:
01) What got you into this fandom in the first place?
02) Do you think you'll stay in this fandom or eventually move on?
03) Favorite episodes/books/movies/etc.?
04) Do you participate in this fandom (fanfiction, graphics, discussions)?
05) Do you think that more people should get into this fandom?
lennongirl gave me WWE, 24, and Politi-slash.
Wrestling:
01) What got you into this fandom in the first place?
Oh, good grief. I have no idea. Pretty sure it was a cousin of mine some 11 or so years ago. I remember, there was a certain dark character who went around sacrificing people and calling himself the Lord of Darkness. Unlike a normal child, I was intrigued, rather than frightened. XD And I'm still a devoted follower of The Undertaker to this day. Though, I have to admit, his yin and yang seem somewhat more balanced these days.
02) Do you think you'll stay in this fandom or eventually move on?
It depends. Not sure if I can see myself watching much if The Undertaker were to retire. I could most definitely see myself still writing fan fiction about characters long gone and storylines past. Sometimes, writers use fic to fix the stupid, be it canon or otherwise.
03) Favorite episodes/books/movies/etc.?
My favorite televised show "episode" was JBL in Japan. Hands down. "YOU AIN'T NOTHIN' BUT A LIZARD ON STEE-ROIDS. *sissy hits inflatable lizard*" You kinda had to see it. XD
04) Do you participate in this fandom (fanfiction, graphics, discussions)?
I write fic, compose fanmixes and occasionally make graphics. Banners and icons and whatnot.
05) Do you think that more people should get into this fandom?
There are plenty of people already in the fandom. Always room for more, though. :D
24:
01) What got you into this fandom in the first place?
One night, I sat down and watched the first episode of the Season 6 premiere. After that, I was hooked.
02) Do you think you'll stay in this fandom or eventually move on?
Oh, I'll stay. 24 is like crack. I can't give up.
03) Favorite episodes/books/movies/etc.?
My favorite episode would have to be the one where he and Assad first met. The way they looked at each other while staring down the barrels of one another's guns just gave me the shivers. In more ways than one. It was a profound moment, I think. And damn, Siddig brought it to the TABLE as Assad.
04) Do you participate in this fandom (fanfiction, graphics, discussions)?
Yes. All of the above. Also prone to occasional ranting, fanmixing, fangirling, squee-ing, and macro-ing.
05) Do you think that more people should get into this fandom?
Yes. Absolutely. Just be prepared to undergo the 12-step program if you ever do want out.
Politi-Slash:
01) What got you into this fandom in the first place?
An odd combination of the Kerry-Edwards campaign and a political RPG I was in around the time of the 2004 elections.
02) Do you think you'll stay in this fandom or eventually move on?
Stay. More than 3 of my OTP's are in this fandom. Though my involvement may be sporadic and featuring certain former presidents/vice presidents/ousted senators. Those were the good old days.
03) Favorite episodes/books/movies/etc.?
Not sure how this would apply here. XD
04) Do you participate in this fandom (fanfiction, graphics, discussions)?
Mostly fan fiction, icons, banners, occasional discussion.
05) Do you think that more people should get into this fandom?
Only if they lack a certain degree of sanity, and they think they're up to it. Politislash is like wasabi. Strong, spicy and overbearing, and not everyone's stomach can handle it. Proceed at your own risk, kids.
In other words, life is boring. Still working part-time until my doctor clears me, and I may have just one more week of physical therapy left. Spine is feeling much better, as it were. Then again, this is the sound of me not jinxing it.
Monday, Monday, why do you come so quickly?
I want my damn weekend back.
