cancels big move to Cleveland and order of t-shirts with "Worship the Joss" on them
I recently read through all the continuity stuff for S7 on the tvtome.com BtVS ep guide. Whoever writes that stuff deserves the fandom medal of honor. There was so many more juicy bits of continuity than I ever would have noticed on my own.
I do see instances of what can only be decribed as mental illness, and breaks from reality in fandom, as well one would see these things in any cross section of community. There are millions of fans, many with access to the internet, and it follows that some have minds clouded with sickness.
That's what they all think, Wolfram.

Whoa nelly, is this ever the truth. I do sort of like the idea that insane fans writing porn and yammering at Allyson are fans who are not calling actors' home numbers and following them around town.
Allyson, by keeping Fury's email account, you are taking a hit for the lives and safety of actors everywhere. Okay, yes, I'm being optimistic.
... because even though most of us have an idea of just how crazy, and a couple folks here have a stunningly clear picture of just how crazy, it still would have been pretty hilarious and frightening.
To give ‘em credit, the line about Buffy fans leaping from their roofs clutching photos of SMG and cursing Marti is pretty funny. I hope to God it hasn’t actually happened though.
Are Buffy fans crazier than hardcore Trekkies or any other fandom you care to mention?
I’m just sayin', the only time I’ve dressed up as a Mutant Enemy character, it was for a Halloween costume party. I’m vaguely acquainted with the woman who wore her Starfleet uniform to jury duty.
I've fanwanked on this one before, Mr. Fred. I think we may be due, in one way or another, for the Slayers to start fighting each other. That brings with it a Highlander dynamic.
Oh Great now i'm earwigged.
We are all mortals,
we have inside a slayer's strength.
I responded to the writer at the Whedonesque thread. Because I'm an idiot.
I think you're on target, Allyson. But I could also be an idiot. I would write a letter, but they keep the pens away from me, as a crazed Buffy fan.
My earwig filk would have worked better with proper HTML coding, which wiped out most of it....
