I hinted to my dad that I am still a LnC fan and he told me to 'Get a life'.
to your dad, then, and all others who think like him.
I have a life, thank you very much, as do most if not all of us. Enjoying a fandom doesn't mean you're stuck in your parents' basement, disconnected from the "real world." I've got quite enough reality going on, really -- husband, two kids (one of them autistic), church activities, support group meetings, etc. This is a great way for me to relax and unwind. And this is a community here, just not a geographically-based one. My best "real life" friends were all Internet/FOLC friends first -- people of all ages that I would otherwise never have come in contact with.
Okay, sorry, Isis, didn't mean to dump on your dad, but that sort of comment annoys me

who thinks media fans are far more sensible than sports freaks...
