I feel vaguely like I have some kind of fandom hangover or something.

I got high on SQUEE and CAPLOCKS last night, and don't know if I can be held completely responsible for my actions...

It's like waking up with a tattoo or a a ring or something, except that I woke up and I have a new comm and some new friends and quite possibly a reputation...

temporary insanity, tinhats are all the vogue these days

I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess you're talking about ontd_ai?? And I have to say, how? I did join and I do a lot of lurking but I have to say that place terrifies me as far as participation. There's just so many people and they respond so quickly and IDK it's just intimidating. Also it makes me a feel a bit old! :)

Possibly I worry too much?

I joined ontd_aia few weeks back, although I do mostly lurk - occasionally I comment because I know I can pretty much say whatever random squee/thought comes to mind without judgement. I was actually talking about beepxbeepxbeepx, though, which is the Kradam tinhat comm...

Hmmm, okay I totally didn't even know of the existence of that one, but it looks hilarious and fun. I clicked to join, so I guess we'll see? I'm guessing they'll look at lack of Kradam on my actual journal and be all ??? but who knows. Mostly I just read lots and lots (and lots) of fic. :)

I'll see what I can do to speed along the process... (and make sure you really do read the rules & explanation of the comm...)

Aw, thanks!

Don't worry, I did read their entire Noob post. In general I'm pretty low drama and I don't know where I actually fall on the Tin-Hat scale :) but I'm not too easily offended so I think I'm good. Probably my hardest thing is actually not being too much of a lurker but I'm working on it!

You should be good to go now...

Oh, are you on AIM? You should be on AIM, because then you could join our crazy group chats which flow seamlessly between Kradam and Glee...

Oh you're all magical! However did you manage that so fast? Look at you with the powerful pull. :) Now I have to live up to the rec or something!

I do have AIM, from a million years ago. My name is JenepelH because I couldn't get it plain at the time. When are these group chats? Just whenever?
