Everybody's Free (To Be Fannish)

I had occasion recently to link someone to the sunscreen thing and it got me thinking. I'm sure that there are approximately half a billion of these for fandom, but whatever. Here's mine!

I love these. This is so much like the one I did a few years ago, but more updated, (well, SPN wasn't around then...)

I remember that one!! So awesome!! The other one I specifically remember was this Smallville one, which still makes me laugh.

I'll read that one tomorrow (it's 3am here, I'll be more awake then), I don't think I saw that before. The first one I remember, but only vaguely, was Star Wars. I think... Dregs of memory...

Agree 100% on the 'don't mess with LJ name', that never stops being annoying. (It'd be okay if they left a trail, or something or used a 'nee', like, 'SpazzySnape nee LupusSnape', ya know?)

They really are fun!

Yes! I am guilty of changing my name (well, starting a new journal), but I came back after an extended hiatus and was like, "Wait, who is that? WHO IS THAT? I recognize that icon!!" They become mysteries for the ages.

I love you so much right now. I could hear the original voice saying this all the way though. Nicely done.

Be careful with beverages around your laptop.

That one's just for you. ♥

This is awesome - hilarious, yet completely true. Makes you realise how awesome fandom can be, really.

Don't make sweeping proclamations that you’ll never cross line "x". Maybe you only write gen fic. Maybe you still love your original OTP. But you never know when the CW will premiere a new show that makes you want to ship two brothers so hard it hurts.
This made me LOL - it's crazy how many of my lines I've crossed ever since I discovered Supernatural.

Thank you!! Fandom, for all its ridiculousness, is completely awesome!!!

Yeah, Supernatural does seem to be custom made for crossing lines. I'm pretty sure I've eaten more than a few of my, "I'll never" statements since the show started.

I can't quite bring myself to regret that. *grins*

Yup! Never say never in fandom. You'll just end up feeling like a tool.

That is really so, so true. Luckily most of my "I'll never" proclamations have not been public, but the chagrin is still there.
