What makes Fandom so great

I must show this to my parents. They don't understand why I feel so comfortable about staying in fandom friends' hotel rooms, or going for car rides in fellow fans' cars while at con. This places it all in perspective.

That's awesome. And deserves the 'home' icon. It's funny how I've started to think about Atlantis as home, as crazy as that sounds. It's where I hang out with all my best friends! Ergo, home. :)

...occasionally harmful to one's mental well being

...often creepy

...a symptom of societal withdrawl when one becomes uncomfortable with the larger society

...a way to make sense of life through bizarre analogies, many involving muppets or aliens

...fun as hell despite all this.
