I recognised the kiwi design immediately, for some bizarre reason, but I have seen lots of people saying it's lemon, and that it's smiley faces and... I made an icon to set them straight. :D
And see, this is what the corporate eedjits don't understand. Fanfic and illegal file-sharing create more fans and then a fair share of those new fans go out and buy DVDs. If Kyri hadn't sent me the first chunk of S1 I would never have bought it - not sight unseen - and as it's showing on 5, which I can't get, I'd be totally screwed and left out of the fandom. As it is, I have S1, am waiting for S2 to come out in box set, and will also be buying the box set of Supernatural if and when it ever graces our shores. /rant. :D
Exactly!! If you hadn't sent me series one and half of series two I would never had the oppertunity to get into the series. Now I own series one and most of series two. And I have the series one companion and am considering the CD and the trading cards (because yes, I am that much of a geek).
Also, I made grandad watch the first three eps of Supernatural that you did for me and he loved it so much that we're gonna buy it.
Fandom is very good for business. I not only bought SGA, but all of Buffy,Angel, Firefly and Serenity. I only got a damn DVD player in the first place because of fandom!
Yeah, see, think of all the money we spend on fandom. I have all the Buffy and Angel DVDs, the comics, the novels, the no-fic books, the dolls, the calenders every year. I borrowed Firefly from a guy at work and then bought it only weeks after I saw it and loved it. I dread to think about the amount of money I've spent in the last two years, but I suspect it runs into thousands.
I LOVE trading cards! I have about 5 or six sets of the Buffy/Angel/Spike ones complete with binders and autographed cards and even a card with a piece of Spike's duster in it. Now I want Rodney's boxers!!
Yis! And we got to see his underoos! Decorated in kiwi slices!

I wonder what the pattern was. Sadly, I was fully prepared to go back and look today after I'd checked my emails. Now I don't have to!
Oh, oh, and I bought the first series this week. I couldn't help myself. ~happy sigh~

Unfortunately there's just not enough to go around, but you can have the icon if you want it, it's shareable!
