Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Dana, yes. There's decades of crazy there (didn't people used to spraypaint "Frodo lives" in the subways? ...ah, thank you wikipedia [link] and there are the movies vs. books elements, and the languages. Though I guess Star Wars and Trekkies are ahead in terms of cosplay and conventions and such.
Twilight won, really? I feel like that's such a pop culture blip. Or am I just super hopeful that twenty years from now, we'll have forgotten about all that?
Didn't LotR fandom have the woman who was psychically married to one of the hobbits? (Or, rather, the actor who played one of the hobbits?)
As crazy as Twilight fandom seems, it's hard to top "psychically married to one of the actors."
Victoria Very Bitter.
From Tom's link:
Note: VB is male, but previously identified as female before coming out as transgendered (FTM). The personal pronouns in this entry have been amended accordingly.
tommyrot, what makes that noteworthy?
I remember my junior high librarian having a "Frodo Lives" plaque above her office door. I had to ask her what it meant, since I didn't read LotR until high school.
tommyrot, what makes that noteworthy?
Well, you mentioned it was a woman.

Well, you mentioned it was a woman.
She was, though, (or identified as such) when it all started, wasn't she?
Heck, I got the "psychic marriage" thing wrong, too, so I'm not the most reliable source of LotR wacko fandom info.
She was, though, when it all started, wasn't she?
Yeah.
I get confused on whether gender identity should be backdated in cases like this....
