Delurker Amnesty

[next_to_normal]

Snagged from snickfic:

Today has been declared lurker amnesty day! Have you read me but never commented? Do you surf by occasionally? Here for the Buffy, SPN or the general snark and commentary and whinging? Say hello! You are under no obligation to ever comment or delurk again, but here's a chance to do so in a post just for that.

I like this idea. When I posted my TV poll the other day, I noticed there were a lot of people who voted whose names I didn't recognize, so here's your chance to say hi. :)

What were your first two fandoms? I thought w/ eowyn as your name it'd be LotR or something...

Nope, LoTR was never a fandom. I just read the books in middle school and loved them, so I picked it for my AIM screenname (before the movies made that the cool thing to do). When I started to develop a presence on the interwebz, I couldn't be bothered to come up with a new name, so I stuck with Eowyn.

I guess technically I've had four fandoms, since I wrote West Wing fic, even though I never showed it to anyone. Before that, it was Sliders - I was on a bboard and read and wrote fanfic - and then 24, which I never wrote fanfic for, but spend much time on the forums.

Do you have DebW friended? she thinks west wing is the greatest show EVAOMg. I think it's a snoozefest but she won't be told :D

I did used to like Sliders though. 24 is too right wing! It scares me!

LOL, DebW is very wise. I'd have a hard time choosing between West Wing and Buffy.

24 is... well, it used to be very awesome, and it started right after 9/11, so there was more appreciation for scary right-wing antiterrorism back then. Now it's just gotten so ridiculous, it's impossible to take it seriously, so it's not nearly as scary. (Jack Bauer is still very awesome, though.)
