Today at club day, I encountered a pimply looking fella wearing a Dethklok tee shirt. Thrilled to find another fan that is not Cat, I flounced away from the happy Theta Phi Alpha table and poked him in the arm.

Me: I love your shirt.
Pimples McGee: Oh. Uh. Thanks?
Me: Have you seen the season finale?!
Pimples McGee: You mean this season?
Me: Yeah!

I did the same thing when I saw a guy wearing an Inferno shirt with a friend in the elevator last year.

Me: (totally interrupting their conversation) You like Inferno!
Him: Yea.
Me: ...So do I.
Him: Cool.
*Elevator silence for seven more floors*

[ the tragicness of fandom. or... something. ]

that story makes me sad.

when i was at a harry potter conference (terminus, in chicago) this august, i went to a wizard rock concert with a friend, who is also a fellow metalocalypse fan. she swears she saw some dude at the concert wearing a dethklok shirt... but i missed it. it was quite tragic.

(especially considering i spent half the con trying to find other people who watch the show, and recruit more fans. because there really need to be more people who are in both fandoms, yes.*)

but now i think of it, if i did see the guy, it could have ended the way your story did. which woulda been soul-crushingly disappointing.

*i may have actually convinced paul degeorge of harry and the potters (one of the bands) to try watching metalocalypse. am kinda proud of myself for that. *cough*
