wacky and wild times in fandom

[angearia]

So I just took a walk down memory lane rereading the BtVS Penguin AU spree of 2010.  Remember that?  If you somehow missed this, go forth and enjoy this perfectly wacky and wild moment in fandom when the stars aligned and the penguins were plentiful

Fairy Spike. That was a Thing once. I wrote a whole series.

This fandom was wild.

>the good old days when we used to go feminist trolling at Whedonesque and get ourselves banned by Simon

Sadly before my time, but reading this brings a tiny candle of light to my wizened, blackened heart of hearts.

I don't know about specific moments, though there were some pretty great individual conversations, but I just remember back toward the end of season eight and in the hiatus before season nine, and the first issue of season nine (...you know, before s9 sucked) (9.01 was good!) when there was new content that a bunch of us were so excited about, and the fun of poring over it looking for clues and themes and meanings and everything...such a blast. I miss you! <3
