The Drugs of Fandom

Apr 17, 2006 10:03

You know how all you fangeeks out there sometimes lean back a little from your computer screens, rub the glow from your eyes and say, "Whoa. What the hell am I doing? Did I really just spend 4 hours reading Snape/Dumbledore hurt-comfort because it's by THAT author I'll whore myself out to for absolutely anything omg I would follow them into hell ( Read more... )

Heheheee! So very true.

Innit it, though? :)

OMG, icon = ASOIAF?

(Heh, I just realized that this little message is only about 25% actual words. Sorry.)

ignipes April 19 2006, 01:50:24 UTC

Yes!

ASOIAF: The fandom where everything that all other fandoms still believe is "shocking" and "daring" has already been done in canon, and then some. ;)

Ahaha, it's so true! There are so few of us on livejournal, too, it seems, which is just weird. Mind if I friend you?

Our numbers are growing, though. I'm not the only one who has made it a personal crusade to get as many people as possible to read GRRM. *g*

Of course I don't mind!

Hah! I knew it was ASOIAF! So much love!

Though I must admit of late Martin's started to remind me of the HP fandom. I love him and cannot tear myself from his orbit if I tried, but at the same time there's this mounting horror every time I open the books. "OMFG, what will he have come up with NOW?!"

ignipes April 19 2006, 19:50:17 UTC

Very true. It's a nerve-wracking experience, being an ASOIAF fan, but we're all too addicted to give it up. :)

OMFG I KNEW IT!!! As soon as I saw your icon, I was like, "That can't be ANYTHING but A Song of Ice and Fire."
WORD. That is so happy. And your icon WINS. And fangirlfangirlfangirl. Babble.

So far, I've started three or four of my friends on the path to enlightenment fanhood. <3333

I'm afraid I can't take credit for the icon: sasha_davidovna (one of the people I converted to a GRRM fan *g*) made it. She has a few up on a recent post on her journal. :)

rocknlobster April 20 2006, 05:31:06 UTC

I'm familiar with her work! :D I have a bunch of Egypt icons I snagged from her a while ago. Mwahahahaha. minimal_icons, bringing the world together. XD

Ooooh, excellent! I shall have to go stalk her check that out, then. :D :D

Awesome icon! And yeah, partway through Crows.
