Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Had some time to kill in Borders yesterday, and read Batgirl:Year One. I can see why you(the collective you) like it. Very interesting. (and now I know the context of Plei's tag.)

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Finished 68th

Is that good or bad?

spotted and actually said hello to your coach,

Meep! My big, black, dreadlock-ed coach!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Out of 85, it coulda been much, much better. Actually, if I'd won one more -- which would've put me at 61 -- I'd be fine with it. The last bout was very, very up and down, and I either hit really brilliant stuff or missed altogether. It takes some real work to whiff with a sabre, let me tell you...

Meep! My big, black, dreadlock-ed coach!

Yes! And he seemed very cool. Actually, your whole club did -- they were one of the groups that really came out to support and cheer and generally help each other out.

He *is* very cool. Did you tell him you knew me? (And did he put 2 and 2 together and realize who I am? He spent the last class I was at calling me 3 different names, none of them my own. I mocked him hard for that.)

We're the Bad News Bears of Cincinnati fencing. No real facility, but lotsa heart.

Yep! And he figured you out after a second or so, unless he faked it very well....

Aww, yeah. We were very much the same way until very recently -- it's only in the last year or so that we've had a whole bunch of people who could qualify for things like this. Before that, we worked our asses off while the rest of the division would sort of shrug and say, "There's a club in Raleigh? Huh."

You could have referred to me by any S name, and it probably would have worked. (I think I was Sylvie, Sally, and Susie. I called him Jonathan for the rest of the class. [His name is Ed.])

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

This is a really long article about the status of comic books as literature, and I'm only on the second page, but it's interesting so far.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Now see, the article struck me as a bit foolish. I suppose there may just be no way to clue in the innocent to a subculture/subgenre without coming across as foolish, but it's repetitively tiresome.
