Reading the Canadian/Uruguayan blogger's comments about us "rabid fanboys" on Dumpshock got me thinking. A poll was the most socially acceptable response I came up with.

well as I'm the second person to vote on it, and 'venue to discuss' is still 100%....

Define "rabid" and "fanboy"? If we're just talking in terms of time and attention dedicated, I need to go wipe some of this foam off of my mouth. If we're talking FanPro can do no wrong or SR3 is utterly perfect or anyone who criticizes SR for any reason is an idiot, not so much.

A-ha! Swordfish Mustardball. There was no selection for "Got dragged into this by significant other and now completely obsesssed" so went with something nice and vague.

You mean, "lick my crack," isn't socially acceptable? |

Why oh why didn't I take the blue pill. Group: Dumpshocked Posts: 6,545 Joined: 26-February 02 From: Gloomy Boise Idaho Member No.: 2,006 |
I hsould have picked 'rabid fanboy' or 'Sowrdfish musterdball'.
I went with like and venue 'cause it is the truth. I don't own all the books, I don't follow all the news, but I do spend a lot of time on DSF talking about it. |

Technically, a "fanboy" refers specifically to someone who is a fan of DC Comics to the exclusion of all other comic companies.
Example quote: "Batman is the best. He can single handedly beat anyone. Galactus won't stand a chance!" Contrast with "Marvel Zombie." More generically applied to anyone who is deeply committed and passionate about a "geek" or "nerd" passtime. This is for the "What's a Fanboy???" responses, if any. Excelsior! |

I don't think any fanboy or fangirl can qualify as rabbid untill he or she writes a slashfic and draws slash artwork.
Thankfully, I have not degenerated to that level yet. |

Damien Knight writhed with passion in his lover's arms, feeling the warmth of the embrace, the pure animal lust they felt for each other, the girth and hardness of his partner's member. He groaned with pleasure, stroking its scaly length, fit for a king… or a President. ~J |

That depends on whether or not you are a schoolgirl.... No wait, it doesn't depend. It is always very, very wrong.

It also needs a blatently obvious godmoding self-insertion character. |

That isn't the kind of self-insertion I meant. Big D (So that's where he got his nickname...) is a fairly well established character. He also isn't a complete godmoder. If he was he would have turned away the horrors with the power of his mighty dragon penis and sucessfully pushed through a Constitutional Amendment making him President for the rest of his natural life. In order to reach the pinicle of bad fanficery one must study from the master. The rancid piece of literally used toilet paper that is Artemis's Lover. On second though, don't study Artemis's Lover. It makes most of its readers blnd themselves so they don't have to read it again. But that doesn't work because they will always have those horrible memories and images in their heads. |
