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.
Goes to sit in the chopped liver corner.
Shut it, pothead.
At least you people can vouch for my existence.
I'm not sure I can. I think you should come visit just in case.
Like an antfarm!
Best. Fandom. Simile. Ever.

It's just a matter of when, m'dear. I'm scheduled to within an inch of my life. Trouble's a'callin' though.
Tommy, avoid considering the Coultergeist(Yeah, KO thinks she's a demon too. Jinx!) Her job in life is saying nasty, stupid, shit.(lo peor de lo peor)
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.

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.
Ok, Tommy, share the pain. What's Man Coulter on about? God, Olbermann has a lot of names for her. Not as many as for Orally, but...
Ok, Tommy, share the pain. What's Man Coulter on about?
During a speech at the American Conservative Union, she said,
“I was going to have a few comments on the other Democratic presidential candidate, John Edwards, but it turns out you have to go into rehab if you use the word ‘faggot–so….’"
Generally I do ignore her, so I'm not sure if this is worse than her usual drivel....
eta to make spoilery its ickiness....
