I caught her on a park bench, making out with a *chaos* demon! Have you ever seen a chaos demon? They're all slime and antlers.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

See, I knew Teppy and Nora would have my back on that.

I could probably get 2 advanced degrees if only I'd get the Simpsons knowledge out of my head.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

AV Club asks its writers when they knew they were pop culture geeks.

I put the question to the Buffistas. I know ita wrote some early Mary Sue fanfic before she even knew about fanfic.

How did your fannish geekiness first emerge?

I think I first caught myself geeking when I didn't buy an issue of World's Finest co-starring the Atom. Which was notable because I bought every single fucking comic that came out, both DC and Marvel. Except some of the horror titles sometimes.

Of course comics only cost twenty cents back then, so my lawn mowing money every week covered that readily.

Did anyone else hear this pronounced as "kay?" in their head. With the question uplift, even.

I stand with msbelle in the not-geeky camp.

Dorky I plead guilty to.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

There weren't any reliable comic book sources near me when I was growing up, but I would cut out and save the 1970s Lee/Lieber Spider-Man comic strip from the newspaper every day.

What kind of fan? Pop culture? Probably making my friends play Tomorrow People instead of Barbies.
