In the wake of the latest sockpuppet wank, of which I am actually only peripherally aware having not been actively involved in SV fandom for years, I have come to a realisation.

After meeting you in Chicago, I know I love you even without DW in the picture. It was fun just hanging out and talking. Fandom's a great way to meet people, but I've definitely come to care about having a lot of the people I've met in my life even when the fandom falls away.

yes, but see.... Big Fannish Love isn't so much about the IRL Friends, it's the brass ring of having total strangers love you. And chasing that brass ring is what can fuck you up bigly.

That kind of adoration is so very, very fickle.

[larakailyn]

That is very, very true. It will.

I think that's why I've always been content to try to stay in the corner and just enjoy what I enjoy. And why certain happenings have driven me batty.

That should be included in every fandom guide EVER.

Kudos for being you, m'dear!

And for having wonderful taste in television. *g*

I adore you. Thank you for this. And yes, for this post, you get virtual candy corn.
