I often wonder if there's anyone else who likes, for instance, music by the Chicks On Speed, books by Julio Cortázar, Ben & Jerry's ice cream, etc. So here's what I thought we would do:
Below this text you'll find a list of things I like and wonder if someone else here likes. Take a look at the list, and see if there's anything there that you are a fan of too. (How much affection that's needed to count as "being a fan" is up to your judgement.) If there are any, write a post saying "I like [name of book/band/etc]." Then, copy and paste the list esxcept for the name of whatever it was you liked. Note: This isn't limited to bands, books, or anything else. Just pick anything in the world that you're fond of.
Whether you see anything on the list you like or not, you're free to add a maximum of three new things to it. (I'm limiting it to three so wer won't have a list the size of War and Peace to read through.) Note: This isn't limited to bands, books, or anything else. Just pick anything in the world that you're fond of.
Assume, for instance, that the list looks like this.
Green Day
Sherlock Holmes stories
Questionable Content
Paradise Lost by Milton
A user, let's call her Alzion, reads it and thinks I like Sherlock Holmes stories!
Alzion writes "I like Sherlock Holmes stories!" in a post. In this post, she also posts this version of the list:
Green Day
Questionable Content
Paradise Lost by Milton
Codename: Kids Next Door
Since she's said that she likes Sherlock Holmes stories, it's no longer on the list. But she does want to find out if there's anyone else who likes Codename: Kids Next Door, so she's added that.
See how it's supposed to work? Now you start. Here's the list. Tell us if you see anything you like! And make sure to add stuff you want to find fellow fans of!

The Chicks on Speed
