1. You know, I thought it was weird at first...
but after reading some surprisingly good -- of all things, haha -- X-Files fanfics, I was sort of won over. :P

2. Well, we may be crazy, however, I was crazy before that.
I'm a nerd I know, but I do like some Harry Potter fan fictions (You would be surprised. Alot of them are better than the actual books. And alot of them seriously suck.)

4. I picked "Undecided"
and I read and write the stuff. :D

Be honest now, is it really crazier or dorkier than, say, sports obsession, or model train building, or historical re-enactment, or record collecting/music geekery or computer games?

6. They are less annoying than furries, but more annoying that Babylon 5 conventions
And if you meet a furry hawking his fanfics at a Babylon5 convention... run like hell

8. Good, no mention of "Rabid MST3K fans."
I'm safe! Hooray! In your face, geeks!
