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... )

fandom, meta

That's the best thing I've seen in a while. And so true. This?

It’s shiny and makes you feel cheap and OMG such a rush in a heart-racing, blood-pumping way but it strings you out and ruins your life and all your friends shun you

WORD. *dies*

After seeing this, I've snooped around your LJ a little. Friending you. :) Feel free to do the same.

mona1347 April 18 2006, 20:22:22 UTC

*laughs* Thank you! And omg SV is so the crack. Only your fellow crackheads don't shun! *clings*

Aw and thanks for friending! Welcome :-D

That is the most true thing ever. The Supernatural roofies...::flails::

Now I'm going to spend all day pondering what Hornblower fandom is. I suspect it may be booze, and I'm at the point of drinking mouthwash and shit people cook up in their bathtubs because NOBODY'S WRITING THE STUFF I WANT but I neeeeeeed my fix so I read whatever I can find.

Yeah, that doesn't really work. ::wanders off::

SPN is SO ROOFIES! God yes.

Oooo see, I like that idea. Let me know when you figure it out! Maybe it's Hornblower that is Meth. I was trying to find a Meth.... Let's assign mind-altering substances to all fandoms! :-D

Booze, yes. But not crappy booze. More like 30 year old brandy. You start off drinking it all genteel and mannerly but end up at the end of the night rolling in front of the fire with one stocking off and covered in grease from the roast pig.

I'm not in Hornblower. But I think this description is the best thing ever. LOL

GO FANDOM!

*rolls around the floor laughing like a mad woman*

I'm so anti-drug in real life but it turns out that according to this, I've already done four of those.

And can I say a big HELL YEAH to the Roofies? That is the truth, yo.

mona1347 April 18 2006, 20:25:16 UTC

Hee hee!! *tries to keep you from knocking into things*

See there, Fandom Is Your Anti-Drug! *victory arms* LOL

SPN is more roofies than anything ever. :-D Thanks!

A world of word. *g* Especially roofies=SPN and now I feel SO USED. *sniff*

greenet: I thinks X-Men is likes cigs. 'Cause you get into it when you're young and then it's reallyreally hard to quit.
jyuu_chan: and then you go cold turkey for a long time, 'cause it's an expensive habit
jyuu_chan: but then other people are reading it? and it's -so hard- not to just read one, just to catch up?
greenet: Yis, but you can't quite stop, because there're all over...
greenet: And then people mock you and laugh and tell you it's your own fault when you bitch about Claremont.
jyuu_chan: Hee!
jyuu_chan: and before you know it, years after you thought you quit, you're picking up comics every week again.
greenet: *grins!*

poisontaster April 17 2006, 17:15:00 UTC

OMG, THIS IS THE TRUTH! I've JUST been thinking about picking X-men back up. *sobs* It's a dirty FILTHY habit!

onefishjyuufish April 17 2006, 22:21:24 UTC

SO SADLY TRUE.

deirdre_c April 18 2006, 18:59:19 UTC

And yet the die-hards are always there to huddle outside the breakroom door in the cold with you.

The Buffy=marijuana is perfect and I'm only starting with the Smallville but I have a hunch that it will be crack. <3

However, I have to disagree a bit with the SPN=roofies as SPN has pretty much been ecstacy for me. Everything feels grey and dull without it, and when you're at it you're filled with an all-embracing love. Maybe SPN is actually both? :D At the beginning of the evening, while you're out, you take that little pill, party like hell, then you go for last refreshing drink, mind set determintaly on going home, but then it's BANG and you're lost.

mona1347 April 18 2006, 21:10:02 UTC

Oh man *head in hands*, SV is so the crack. Only your fellow crackheads will understand you so stick close. :)

See, every time I have new fandom I always feel that ecstasy high but SPN has gotten me to do the most vile, obscene and loathsome things with just a few bats of it's pretty, glittered lashes and a "drink this, no problem, it's just a little drink" and then BLAM flat on your back, naked and covered in lube.

Not that I'd trade it... *snickers and loves on the dirtybadwrong* :-D
