Wow, There Actually Are People Geekier Than Me!
So where are you in the hierarchy?
I've actually moved up the tree quite a bit, as I no longer do the role playing game thing and haven't gone to a convention in years. Of course, having a bunch of goths as friends makes it much easier to stay high up in the tree...
Dammit - I fit into several categories. I'm a sci-fi fan. I used to read Heinlein constantly, but have moved on - so I guess that's good. However, I do love anime (or nipamation). At least I'm not a furry and a trekkie...

Usually they made themselves perfect in every way, and made the crew of the Enterprise look like mouth-breathing idiots, except for the crewmember the author was obsessed with, who, while still nowhere near as smart as the author's avatar, would make up for it in mad passionate romance.
How can you tell someone to stop writing furry Star Trek auto-erotica when "Uhura's Song" is flying off the shelves of the local bookstore?
