Before going back to study...

You answered "yes" to 53 of 100 questions, making you 47.0% fandom pure (53.0% fandom corrupt).


According to the scoring guide, your fandom experience level is: A definite fandom member, you are known and respected (generally) for your posts and work. Good job!

Your Weirdness Factor (AKA Uniqueness Factor) is 28%, based on a comparison of your test results with 1971 other submissions for this test.


Fandom purity test is here and shit.

I just realized I never commented on the interview meme I posted a while ago. I also didn't post anything for the crossover meme yet. As soon as I'm done with finals (did I mention I only get like six days of vacation before the new semester starts? ;_;) I'll get around to the latter. And I'll try to think about something for the former. Sigh, I feel so lonely. I think I've lost some charisma points along the way.

BTW, remember that fucking "Umbrella" song? This pop-rock cover is funny XD They reminded me of when Blink 182 did this... but way gayer, of course.

I don't think I am a comment whore either but if I didn't appreciate comments I might as well make my journal private and not friend anyone. But I also understand that not everyone is going to comment on everything I say. Although I also feel I don't comment enough sometimes.

As for number of friends I think quality is more important than quantity. Of course even with people who have 100's of friends, probably half those people never even comment. I think that is just the nature of LJ friending.

I only got 37% fandom corrupt. I thought I would get something larger but I guess it because I don't really participate creatively in fandom, I just talk about it and lurk. XD


And congrats on finishing your finals. But only 6 days off that doesn't seem very fair.

....finishing? HAH. Two weeks to go, and I haven't studied crap.

I think I sound too whiny. I'll edit the post because now I feel like attention whore.

Oops I read it as you were done. My mistake D:

Edit: I thought your post was fine. Honestly I feel the same way sometimes. I guess I was trying to say I understand your feelings because I think them too sometimes but there is also this to think about. :)

That's okay. I'm just mad at myself for not having the will to unplug this stupid computer and study harder. So I'm sorry if I sounded harsh.

I appreciate it ^_^ I guess I just rant when I'm feeling depressed, and I never know when I look like an idiot and when I don't. For you it's reasonable, but maybe others would go "bitch, please" at me. But it's true I don't understand how some people manage to make so close friends in fandom, and I am slightly jealous even if I have terrific, smart folks on the flist to read.

What does it mean to be close in fandom? I think for one it has to be different than real life friendship. I guess I don't worry about having long lasting relationships from fandom, instead I think it is great to meet so many wonderful and fascinating people from all over the world. that somehow share similar interests as me. That is what being a part of fandom is about to me. It really is something special when you think of it that way. And I think my time with my fandom friends is just as important in a different way than my time with my RL friends if that makes any sense.

Although I do feel a certain degree of closeness to certain people on my FL who I am especially glad we became LJ friends and it has nothing to do with a number of friends. Obviously I can never make a list of these people but I will say you are one of them.

Edited for length. :)

I'm not sure what it means, either. But since currently I have no friends IRL, random friendships with people far away from me I've never met in person is all I have left.

...Man, that sounded pathetic. Depressing, too. And I don't know what else to say or how to say it without sounding... I don't know. So forget this comment ever happened if you feel it's too personal for the kind of friendship we have. I really have no way to tell.

Well all I can say is if I lived in Spain or you lived here I would definitely want to be friends and to hang out and all that stuff. And no I don't think that is too personal.

For what is worth, I consider you a close friend. :) Even though I don't comment in those "The Something Meme" things anymore. But then again I don't do it for anyone...

I don't what you talked about because you edited it, but yeah. [HUGS]

Also, lol, I got 57% fandom pure. So I'm worse than you?

Nevemind that. It was me being an attention whore.

Wouldn't it be better? The higher the score, the more life you actually have? (I guess it's the fansites why I scored more polluted than you XD)
