What's the opposite of a BNF? A No Name Fan?
You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
What's the opposite of a BNF?
Me. No one knows who I am. I produce nothing related to fandom, I only talk about it here, and I'm terrible at feedback.
At least you people can vouch for my existence.

I like being multifandom because it gives me a much better perspective on perceived status, and also I get to see the growth cycle of fandoms over and over.
Word.
Sometimes I am a BNF. It depends on the context, and the fandom. I even know where some of the cabals are.
I'm comfortably MNF: recced a fair amount when I do write, namechecked every once in a blue moon, and a frequent name on metafandom. The sort of fan that, as I said during a discussion of MNFdom a while back, you're happy to see in your fandom, but not the one you try to drag kicking and screaming into it.
And, okay, I'll cop to occasionally getting all emo about never showing up on those anon lovememes when it seems like everyone I know's there, but you know, I don't show up on the anon hatememes that I know of (and dude, don't shatter this illusion), so it's all good.

I'm not sure I can. I think you should come visit just in case.

It's just a matter of when, m'dear. I'm scheduled to within an inch of my life. Trouble's a'callin' though.

Wow, I sort of feel badly for those writers. The only one whose name I recognize is keepaofthecheez, and that's from VM fandom (and even then I don't think I've read any of her fic).
astolat is maybe more commonly known as shalott and IMHO she's among the rarified best of writers in any of the fandoms I read. Though currently in SPN fandom I've only seen incest-slash stories by her, so I'm not sure if they'd be your cup of tea even if superbly-written... maybe you'd enjoy checking out her work in other fandoms? She's the one who first got me into SGA fanfic, and not coincidentally into actually enjoying the show itself.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

OK, I'll take your advice, even though what she said was nastier and more stupid than usual.
ION, if anyone here (ita?) has been following the peak oil thing - this is scary: Saudi Arabian oil declines 8% in 2006
Saudi Arabia claims they intentionally cut production to prop up the price of oil. This guy argues that's a lie, and that Saudi oil production peaked last year and will continue to drop.

I hate being the center of attention, but I don't like being completely ignored. Whenever I trip over evidence that I might be a BNF, I have to hum Metallica so I don't freak out about how many people are out there looking at me.
