If you don't mind me asking, what prompted your post? Did something in particular happen to spark the topic in your mind?
I am what could be called a "fangirl". I have an unnatural obsession with horror films, morbid stuff in general, the 1980's, and Morten Harket from a-ha (yes, a weird combination, I know!) but I would never attack anyone for not feeling the same way. Actually, I'm quite glad that I don't encounter may people with the same interests. It makes me feel unique.
