I was amused when reading We'll Always Have Parrots to find fannish shenanigans. I was smirking when actors were explaining to a police detective what slash was. Also when a couple of the actors were amusing themselves with an oral reading of badfic, while the screenwriter and another actor were having "eeeeek!" moments.

It would not surprise me AT ALL if the author started life in fandom. :D

:D It's a bit more amuzing in fiction.

It is! I had to re-read a section. "Are they really talking about slash?" XD

That's so awesome. :D

LOL

I, on the other hand, am trying to work out how I would feel if I read that in a book. I think it would be too fourth-wall-y for me. It is hard to say without encountering it myself but reading the description I am left going "what".

DAMMIT! I meant "amusing" the bleeding "z" is too close to the "s" on the keyboard.

I don't know, I don't mind the fourth wall being broken, but it has to be done well.

A lot of times that kind of stuff makes me cringe, but this just amused me. :D
