Geekiness and my love/hate relationship with fandom

As I began a comment on funwithrage's LJ:

As you're well aware, I'm a geek. I'm a big, once-was-president-of-my-fan-club, convention-going, costume-wearing, geek. The level of my geekness is exceeded only by those unfortunate souls who believe they would make good Klingons, if only they could get off Earth and found K'onos.

This entry will explore my feelings about fandom in possibly greater detail than I ever have done.

Meme from Waiwode

I think this is fun.

From waiwode:
We all know how hallowed Opinion is on the Dataweb. It is nigh-sacrosanct, and discussing how someone's opinion is incorrect is seen as some kind of Internet-Fascism.

The Opinion Meme.
State a spurious fact as an opinion. The more obviously false the better! The phrases "I like", "I feel", or "I think" cannot be used. Your opinion is inarguable and absolute!

In my opinion, grammar is completely unnecessary.
