cimorenei found that someone of whom i was mildly fond in trekdom has an lj, and her website is not dead: she just got her own server. she even goes by the same name she had when a trek queen, ie, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
mecurtin; but she's now in smallville (eeeek #1) and apparently looks down her nose at fandom wank (eek #2--although admittedly i'm getting tired of kerfluffles myself, but that's not the same thing at all, you know. i adore it on PRINCIPLE. and i certainly don't trust smallville queens on principle, cause as far as i know there's only one i don't hate, and most of the fandom is a writhing seething mass of self-important obnoxious asses).
hmmm. should i friend her, or not? am anxious to increase people who know what tos slash is around me, but her posts seem to be about cooking and about clark's chest or something.
hmmm.
i think not, but i'll look into it again in a couple of days.
Part of the trouble, of course, is that f_wers do pretend to be "witty", and one person's witty is another person's sophmoric asshattery. can you really said to be pretending to be something that's a relative quality defined by the opinions of other people? like, say, beautiful. or stupid.
