all true. which makes me wonder why he's trying to deny/lying about it.
Maybe he's not lying or denying. Maybe he's pedantic. If he never filled out any sort of application, made any actions to "join" or paid any dues, he may never have considered himself a member, and might find it disconcerting to be reported as being one. That would bug me. Are Dershowitz, Dukakis, and Barney Frank members because they're listed as participants/speakers on the website?
I stayed home with a headache today.
I was wondering where you were. Are you ok now?
Oh right, I forgot who I was talking to.
Responding belatedly to Soylent Gud:
I don't know if this means I'm a cannibal or a pervert.
bon, i don't especially like the chicken little hand wringing about federalism. I'm a fan of Madison. i just want to know if he smells like Scalia, if that makes any sense. I want to know what he thinks about Loving v. Virginia, and Griswold.
These are things worrying me.
Other people's verbal habits can really scar you for life, people.
I borrowed my parent's collection of Harry Potter audiobooks and have been listening to them straight through in my car (I'm onto Book 5 now). Now I keep want to use English slang, talk in a (horrible) English accent, and I miss my naval power even though I've never owned a boat.
Well, we
know
you're a pervert, shrift. So that's covered.
I explained slash to a gay guy this weekend. Very weird dynamic. He just couldn't parse that there were chicks that liked that stuff. And of course, from where I sit, it looks like slash is the fic that ate the canon.
I had my mother last weekend explaining to me how not all fanfiction was porn. She heard it on NPR.
The only fanfic my parents are familiar with is Mary Sue with implied sex between their daughter and an imaginary dead guy.
Everything else about the genre would be easy for them, if only they'd sit still long enough to listen.
Internet fanfic perverts, represent!
It really was the funniest thing -- she's all up now on the origins of Kirk/Spock. Apparently it was female engineers who invented fanfic.
