kept on singing love songs, just to break my own fall

[livejournal.com profile] cereta's asking why people love fandom. This naturally results in a post with a comment thread of joy and glee and all things good - and you should run over and add your own joy and glee to the bunch.

As for me, I love fandom, because it is a break away from my own mind; it's my safe-space, the place I go to be happy and silly and think differently and communicate and be able to be myself without repercussions or awkwardness. I love fandom.

Hee, it does sound incredibly awesome! And yeah, I get that from fandom as well. Though sometimes it does lead to me thinking everyone thinks like people in fandom, which has...interesting repercussions.

:D

It's pretty great. I usually remember that not EVERYONE is going to think 'omg they're gay' even if they ARE all snuggly with each other all the time.

well, I remember that. I just forget that normal people aren't as open to talking about sex, or as in touch with their perviness as people in fandom are ;)

LMAO NO. that is also true. I think it sucks some of the fun out of life.

It does! People should embrace their kinks! Embrace the perviness!

I need to start a campaign.
