I have a friend who is such a dedicated Harry Potter fan (and active scribe of HP "chan' literature) that she might well describe herself as a muggle muggle.

Is that what they're calling "fan fiction" now? Is it supposed to make it sound like it's more mature than coming from the minds of tweens and 30-year-olds living in their parents' basements? (No disrespect to your friend - I just can't stand the fan fiction "culture".)

A fan-fiction culture muggle, eh? I'm beginning to think I'm a facebook muggle.

Oh, I'm a total Facebook muggle. That's the latest version of my prior Myspace muggle and livejournal muggle status.

If I understand correctly, chan specifically means that category of fan fiction featuring homosexual erotic content. My friend is a lesbian writer of erotica of all types and categories, but she got caught up in the whole Potter-mania thing, and, well, all of her friends roll their eyes when she brings it up. (No, none of us have read any of it.) Apparently, her stories focus more on the faculty at Hogwart's, and any student involvement is strictly with those who are of legal age. Hey, you gotta have standards!

I thought that was called "slash".

Well, that's comforting, considering some excerpts I've seen before. Some of the stuff... holy cow!
